It doesn't have a name because it hasn't been found yet. It hasn't even been proven that there is one yet. It is highly debated between scientists. Some think it is a false theory and others believe it is possible that there is a gene.

There isn't a single gene responsible for homosexuality. Current science is finding evidence for gene sequences that could be factors in homosexuality.

Do evolutionist believe that homosexuals will breed themselves out of existence?

Let us take this question from a genetic and scientific standpoint.The notion that homosexuality is caused by a "gay gene" is a weak theory and has yet to be fully supported by scientists. If homosexuality was caused by a gene, that gene would have to be passed on to cause the phenotype (homosexuality) to show. Since homosexuals do not usually breed to produce offspring, then that gene is not being passed on. As a result, the homosexual population would die out. Clearly, this is not the case so it is evident that homosexuality is not caused exclusively by a gene.The theory accepted by many scientists is the idea of homosexuality being caused by the balance of intrauterine hormones during pregnancy. This is a biological factor as opposed to an exclusive genetic factor. Because homosexuality is determined as a mutually exclusive event, it will not result in the population dying out.

It's caused by a very fare gene that has been linked to homosexuality. You have 72 hours before you catch the gay. It's caused by a very fare gene that has been linked to homosexuality. You have 72 hours before you catch the gay.


If homosexuality determined by genes how come there are homosexuals today even though they didn't reproduce throughout evolution?

Homosexuality is not determined by genes. The theory is that homosexuality is associated with a combination of gene sequences (not individual genes) with gestational hormones. Gene sequences can occur and recur regardless of whether certain individual genes become rare or even extinct. If homosexuality is genetic, born to parents that aren't, that would mean the gene is recessive. Suppose H is heterosexual and h is homosexual. If two Hh's marry and the kid gets h from both parents, s/he is then gay.
