Not necessarily. Exposure to certain viruses, chemicals or substances while in the womb can cause the baby to be "born with" minor or major birth trauma, defects, anomalies, etc. [/b][/quote]That would certainly be the case in a rather small, isolated group.

But for those who are gay and believe it is so because of their genes, it is because they all believe they were born that way. Far too many people for trauma, defects, etc. to universally apply.

Either way, I'm not saying I buy the argument that homosexuality (or pedophilia) are genetic, I'm just playing Devil's advocate. [/b][/quote]I'm actually suggesting something very un-PC. I'm saying some kind of stress is happening first trimester, when the brain is really developing (like the hypothalamus that influence sexual behavior). Well, I'm not actually suggesting it but rather some researchers indicate this may be happening.

But it is unpopular, since it put homosexuality in a disease or birth defect category.
