Genetics of Homosexuality vs. Reproductive Rights

[KevinTheOmnivore]

I think that's a really interesting question. If homosexuality is indeed genetic, or something "you're born with", then you could potentially pass it along. So essentially, if society allows gay men and women to reproduce, then society is not only preserving the rights of homosexuals but giving a stamp of approval to there being more gay people.

I guess this comes down to the fundamental divide on the issue. Either homosexuality is perfectly normal and deserving of equal status, or it's unhealthy for society (and sinful, unchristian, yada yada).

I think, were the questioned framed in that way Emu, most Americans (even those who are in favor of gay civil rights) would be uncomfortable with the thought. What if your daughter marries a closet case, and they have children? Sure, you're all in favor of homosexuality, but are you okay with your grandkids being gay???
