In 2019, scientists from MIT and Harvard explored whether or not a genetic basis for sexual orientation actually existed. The study, extensive in nature, saw the scientists perform a genome-wide association study on close to 500,000 participants from the U.S., the UK, and Sweden. The hypothesis was disproved.

Regardless that, people who call who claim the mantle of science still push the idea when it fits their ulterior motives
>Is There a “Gay Gene"? Both genes and conditions in the womb play a role in sexuality.

homosexuality is a mental illness. "mental illness" and "brain damage" are synonymous terms. so homosexuals are low iq by definition, because of this, they are easily tricked, confused or manipulated.

They're saying that more than one gene is involved in whether or not somebody's gay.

This comic is really funny because people who collaborated with the Mongols were immediately peacefully assimilated and avoided the thousands to millions of deaths and centuries of cultural damage that came with making war with them. The author is historically illiterate.

It wasn't disproved if you read the article you posted, they concluded it is a polygenic trait.

the fact that there is no genetic basis for being a faggot is settled science
homosexuality is a mental illness, the best way to treat mental illness is amputation of the head

The problem is that people imagine a "gene that makes you gay" instead of the epigenenic "gene that makes you likely to be gay" which is basically just any manlet gene, but to apply epigenetics to gays would mean admitting that people can be indoctrinated to be gay which is politically incorrect.

same as they were saying back in the 1950s
science has progressed so much since then. for example, nasa has gone from not being able to launch an orital spacecraft to not being able to launch an orital spacecraft. so much progress since the 1950s

Its not settled science when a scientist doesn't like that the science settled somewhere that contradicts their personal political beliefs.
The science is only settled when it appeals to the scientist's confirmation bias
