Born That Way Evidence Shows that Homosexuality is not Heredity.
Homosexuality has been around for thousands of years, shown in ancient drawings and sculptures. However, the big question is if it's learned through environment or if it is hereditary and passed down form parent to child. Religion and science play a big part in this topic because some believe that God never intended for humans to go against nature, and others believe that science says there isn't a choice about sexuality, but that it is determined through our genetics. Dr. Dean Hamer, a gay researcher, discusses the current status on the subject, stating, "Homosexuality is not genetic…environmental factors play a big role. There is not a single master gene that makes people gay. I don't think we will ever be able to predict who will be gay" (Byrd). What she means is that homosexuality is nurture, not nature. Homosexuality is not genetic, but produced by environmental factors.
Support: Why Homosexuality is Environmental, not Genetic 1. Evidence from Genetic Determinants 2. Occurrence in Various Cultures 3. Observations by social scientists.
