I wonder if this means there isn't a gay gene. With most people not being strictly 100% gay or straight, can it really be something genetic? Aren't genes like light switches in that regard? I should have payed more attention in school... I kept thinking that while watching it too, that sexuality is mostly one big gray area. I wonder if this means there isn’t a gay gene.

I just changed it to say partner. I'm glad you suggested that! =) That’s a very good point. I just changed it to say partner. I’m glad you suggested that! =)

It is very interesting and worth to see it. And just a tiny remark: as you are always emphasize that Andreas is your husband, John Barrowman likes to highlight that Scott is his partner (civil partner) and not "just" his boyfriend...

Of course, it's no news to any of us that being gay is inherent rather than a choice...although perhaps one major flaw in all of this research is to approach it as like a light switch that is either on or off. I suspect it's probably more like a bell curve, with a few people that are 100% straight or 100% gay and most people somewhere between the two extremes. I suspect multiple genes and hormones are involved. Yes, I too would love to see the likes of Pat Robertson and Fred Phelps hooked up to the brain scan! hahahaha It sounds like a really interesting doco and I hope they show it over here in Australia sometime.
