Genetics or social environment determines "sexual orientation".
That's not what the evidence says.
The evidence is indicating that there may likely be a genetic predisposition, but that the determining factor is the pre-natal environment.
It appears that the balance of hormones at various stages influences the wiring of the brain.
Sexual orientation is not a product of genetic determinism, it is not socially induced, and it is most certainly not a choice.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.

I think all has been said that you need to figure it out. Allow yourself to think about it.
I have thought about it and I have come to the conclusion that there is no wrong with being gay but I don't support gay marriage simples.

Do you still think you have sounds reason why you don't support it, or are we now at the point where you simply say - I don't because I don't, I need no reason to discriminate. If the latter, there is no point in arguing with you and all that's left is outvoting you, if the former, I'd urge you to examine whether these reasons are valid.

In Islam, if a man lies with a man God's throne quakes.
