gene for homosexuality

[RitalinO.D.]

A boy growing up in North or South America has got to be very careful to let his peers know he hates queers. That is just the way it is, and enough parents endorse this to pretty much keep it going. At least that was the way it was when I was growing up, and I look back on my own behavior toward those of an effeminate nature with a certain shame. This was in spite of my liberal parents.

I suppose things are getting better: the polls seem to indicate so. Nowadays the Christian right use of homophobia serves as glaring evidence that they are not really Christian.
