I'll refrain from the insults this time. Please do the same. BTW what is Dafuq? You must have misspelled something or maybe your grammar is wrong.
Unlike you, I don't live in an english speaking country. I'm not required to to be fluent in english. My native language is dutch.
'Dafuq', it's a common way of writing 'What the f*ck' on the internet, especially when you frequent gaming websites and 9gag.
I never mentioned the genetic code can be taught. I said
people can be taught. There is a difference between genetics and behavior.
Genetic factors predisposing to homosexuality may increase mating success in heterosexualhttp://www.ehbonline.org/article/S1090-5138%2808%2900068-8/abstractThere is considerable evidence that human sexual orientation is genetically influenced, so it is not known how homosexuality, which tends to lower reproductive success, is maintained in the population at a relatively high frequency. One hypothesis proposes that while genes predisposing to homosexuality reduce homosexuals' reproductive success, they may confer some advantage in heterosexuals who carry them. However, it is not clear what such an advantage may be. To investigate this, we examine a data set where a large community-based twin sample (N=4904) anonymously completed a detailed questionnaire examining sexual behaviors and attitudes. We show that psychologically masculine females and feminine men are (a) more likely to be nonheterosexual but (b), when heterosexual, have more opposite-sex sexual partners. With statistical modelling of the twin data, we show that both these relationships are partly due to pleiotropic genetic influences common to each trait. We also find a trend for heterosexuals with a nonheterosexual twin to have more opposite-sex partners than do heterosexual twin pairs. Taken together, these results suggest that genes predisposing to homosexuality may confer a mating advantage in heterosexuals, which could help explain the evolution and maintenance of homosexuality in the population.
PS: There you go again writing
your instead of
you're. Even when you obviously try to write decent sentences, you still make the mistake.
