Look, I was going to write about this earlier, but I feel like I can't
help but mention something about it now. If homosexuality was some
recessive trait which was advantageous in the heterozygous form, we'd be
seeing a LOT more homosexuality than we actually do. "1 in 4, maybe more"
would be true everywhere, all across the world, and bluntly, it's just
not. It would surprise me a Great Deal if some kind of "gay gene" were
ever found that provided some heterozygous advantage.
Homosexuality is no better nor worse morally than being heterosexual. But
you're fooling yourself if you think that homosexuality provides some
GENETIC advantage. That's not the point; never was, never will be.
