This idea of changing the preferences of our children could be
misconstrued as hypocitical. For example, it's todays world we find
it morally correct to defy our childs interests right. Like "I will
love my child even if he grows up to be a ballerina" even though you
may be silently wishing for a lawyer. Dow does this pre programming of
a childs sexuality (without their choice) play into this line of
thinking?

children,but the possibilities there seem limited (eg, "Nurture
Assumption" book).Changing the preferences of other people's children
is even harder.
