If you were a parent would you volunteer your child for experiments into seeing if they turn out gay?

And anyway, some scientists might shy away from an experiment that could take something like 18 years to complete - from birth right the way to adulthodd (maybe a bit further). And what about funding? I'm sure some European Scientisty place could get the funding (heck, the Swedes got funding for working out that there are 44 ways to put together an Ikea wardrobe without the instructions - only 8 of which actually work), but I'm not sure about an American Institute, especially not if it's funded by the government.

No, I meant: monitor their brains at ages 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, or whatever. See if it's consistent with their sexual behavior later in life.

Ah, OK. I'm thinking along the lines of some experiment done by Robert Winston - Child of Our Time. He looks at kids as they grow up, from the day of their birth till I don't know when. Quite interesting - he's being doing it for years.

The way Robert Winston does it is probably very time and money consuming, your way would be quick and less expensive.

But then, what happens if in your Population you get a child who has had a very traumatic experience, that, in later life, may lead to 'being gay'? How would that be taken into account?

Isn't that the whole point to figure shit like that out!?

Well...yes.

I can't remember where I was coming from there...hmm. Myabe I was thinking that it wouldn't be fair to the others? A Fair Experiment?

Oh yes, a way we can finally prove Lesbians and gays are different from us straights!!!
