Short answer. Let's assume that if homosexuality is genetic, it is tied to a recessive gene. That seems a reasonable assumption. For those where the 'gay' gene is expressed, it is often not passed on (though it can be - the equipment is there). However, recessive genes are hard to select out, because carrying the gene doesn't have any consequence for most of the carriers, because the gene is not expressed....

-- Aimless (aimles...), February 10th, 2003.


I laughed out loud cause I found this so insulting both to gay people and serious geneticists.

Yesterday at the dog show I overheard one judge say that it is easy to figure out which is the best dog -- and he had no doubt that there was one best dog -- it is just hard to figure out so quickly! He wished that the judges were allowed a couple of hours, after looking at the dogs, to sit alone with their eyes closed and ponder.
In some cases it's obvious. I spotted the best Great Dane and Boxer right away. But I was sitting right by the Samoyeds and they all looked identical to me.

I think it's silly to play favorites when there are so many lovely dogs.

*THUMP* "IIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!"
*THUMP* "AAAAAAAAIIIIIEEE!"

We couldn't tell if they were fucking or if he was smacking her around with a phone book. We finally decided that he must have been climbing on top of the dresser next to the bed and taking flying leaps at her.
