The gay twin is flamboyantly gay and he's not ashamed, nor doubtful, of his sexuality. I say more power to him and I love them both the same. Personally, I'm a straight male and will always be that way. I have no problem with homosexuality whatsoever, I am a biochem major and I'm just curious as to it whether it originates biologically or psychologically.
I've always believed that homosexuality is present at birth, and therefore must be somehow encoded in one's DNA. All of the gay people I have talked to say that they have always been gay and that it's not a personal choice one makes.
But identical twins have identical sequences of DNA so if it's not a choice then how could one be gay and one not be gay?
Gay and straight responders are welcome as long as they are respectful.
Thanks to all in advance!!!

read calmsoul's article....
even the most identical of twins are not completely identical. A couple of friends of mine that I've known since junior high school are identical sisters...but one is left-handed, the other is right-handed ("mirror twins"). there are still genetic variations even between siblings with identical DNA.

I know of several sets of twins and one is gay the other is straight. I also know several sets of twins and they are both gay. Two of the sets of twins are male. One set of twins is a boy and a girl. Their mother laughs and says that they decided to exchange sexual preferences in the womb.

i'm now no longer likely to bypass loopy in this reply, in spite of the undeniable fact that I took a route on developmental psychology my freshman year. basically, a personality's sexuality is said by ability of technique of three concerns: their genes, and their environment, and their option. for sure, anybody will also be born gay because of actual undeniable actuality that of their genetics. also, anybody may be born uncertain, and thanks to actual undeniable actuality that of their environment are moved in a unmarried direction or the option. And, for some human beings, that's because of the particular undeniable actuality that they basically favor to. the excuses some instruments of twins are/are not each gay is because of the actual undeniable actuality that of the latter 2 elements. basically because of actual undeniable actuality that they are twins does now no longer always recommend that they are going to do precisely a similar concerns always. This unshared environment may precipitate particular ameliorations in a unmarried twin, relative to the option. that's why there may nicely be an approximate 50% chance. that fifty comes from genes, in spite of the twins have in everyday it would not count number what they do. the diverse fifty share comes from the ambience. (decision isn't factored into the %, considering that's in spite of interior take care of of the nature--the option 2 are not--although this may also come into play)

You know, it's funny... I know a pair of identical twins... one gay, one straight.... But the gay twin is the most straight acting, and the straight twin is very gay acting.

Actually, identical twins START with identical genetics but the development of those genes is not always identical due to hormonal influences within the mother and other such things.

The fact that one twin is and the other is not gay proves that the " genetic" nature of homosexuality is a psuedoscientific myth. Being homosexual is a choice accompanied by a 'victimization predisposed ' personality.
