Interesting article on the BBC:

This scientist is claiming that male homosexuality is genetic, and this caught my attention because of a picture I saw of the Gay Pride march in Budapest at the weekend: two men holding up a placard proclaiming “We were born this way”.
To me, that seemed almost like an apology to the straight community for being gay – “I’m sorry, but I was born like this and there is nothing I can do to change it”. It shouldn’t matter whether somebody came out the womb gay, became gay due to upbringing or simply made a lifestyle choice. Straight people should just accept that people can do what they want with their own sexual organs, and I don’t think that gay people should have to justify their choices or existence by proving they were genetically set up that way.
