Let’s get some facts and perspective on the issue. I would argue that understanding our fundamental biological nature should make us more vigorous in promoting LGB rights. Finding evidence for a biological basis should not scare us or undermine gay, lesbian and bisexual (LGB) rights (the studies I refer to do not include transgendered individuals, so I’ll confine my comments to lesbian, gay and bisexual people). It points strongly to a biological origin for our sexualities.
I n a recent Guardian article, Simon Copland argued that it is very unlikely people are born gay (or presumably any other sexual orientation).
