Best Answer

no.

that may be correct however research has shown in sets of familys that there is more than one person who is gay also research has been done of twins where one is gay and one is not

its hard to pin point if there is a gay gene but there has been studies that suggest that there is a gay family tree

and it depends on how you define gay you may be just gay or have had relationships with people who are of the other sex for many reason social religious and been attracted to those of same sex

in some familys its every other generation or third

example granparent has shown same sex indicators

mother father not

child is gay

or great grandparent has shown indicators

grandpartents not

mother father not

child may show indicators

or twins

one is one is not

Ignoring what the person above says, being gay is is your genes. Its not going to be in every member of your family, but it is a trait that can be passed on. I don't see whats wrong being gay. Sometimes its a choice, but sometimes you just cant help it.

There is no such thing as a "gay gene" found. However, people who come from traditional family wouldn't fake being gay just to be disowned.

It's possible, but unlikely, since the majority of gay people do not have children, so they do not pass any traits down.

How do gay people affect the people in the military?

They don't really affect people in the military at all. In fact, many of the people IN the military are gay. Gay relationships have no effect on anybody else, but the people they concern. Homophobes THINK that gays have a direct effect on them, but they really don't. I have a feeling that the next generation will look with embarrassment on their homophobic ancestors, just as we look with embarrassment on our racist ancestors.
