Background
Ethics of identifying the “Gay Gene:”
A few different genes have been identified as being very common among gay men, suggesting that sexual orientation in men may be at least partially biologically determined. Some queer activists are very interested and supportive of a gene associated with homosexuality, as this would make it illegal to discriminate against gays. In other words, if someone is born with the gay gene, then those opposed to homosexuality can no longer claim that it is a “lifestyle choice” or a form of deviance.
