No one knows the answer to this age old question at the time. There are medical studies to determine if it is genetic, but nothing concrete has been found.
If there is something that causes it, then why could there not be a cure if some prebirth or post birth treatment could correct the DNA. Just like one would any other birth issue.
Chuck, there are currently no cures for many diseases out there. I think that a cure for MS or Cerebral Palsy (just 2 examples) would be much higher on the medical front than lifestyle.
If there is something that causes it, then why could there not be a cure if some prebirth or post birth treatment could correct the DNA. Just like one would any other birth issue.
You mean like the common cold, or cancer, or AIDS, or Multiple Sclerosis?
Science cannot cure the common cold, let alone many other illnesses and genetic conditions. Besides, there is no absolute proof positive, beyond question and doubt, link to homosexuality and genetics. There are studies that show it could be and there are studies that show it could be environmental and you will find some studies that saw homosexuality is caused by something in the psychological development of the person. You can find a study to prove anything you want. Does not mean they are all worth their salt.
Has anyone actually discovered what causes people to be born homosexual ? Is it genetic, a fault in the DNA, what? Is there a cure ?
At this point there is no definitive evidence that homosexuality is 100% related to genetics. If it were, a "cure" would be another issue.
Sickle cell anemia, is due to a single dna base mutation, there is no "genetic cure, " though there may be one in the future.
Like most things [ intelligence, height, addictions etc...] there are genetic predispositions, environmental issues, and individual choices all playing a role as to who we are.
There is an extra hormone or something that makes a females into a males. It is thought that some mothers produce antibodies that attack the hormone, leaving some males not fully developed. It is supposed to be extremely common that the last boy born is most likely going to be the gay one if there is a gay in the family. The reason could be that the mother's antibodies against the male hormones grow too strong over the course of having many sons.
I've seen a book about it on TV recently and I've read some stuff too. Maybe this is the cause.
