I don't think its either, it can't be genetic because the gay gene wouldn't be passed on.

In today's day and age, that's not true. I was reading a story recently about a lesbian mother who is mothering a baby via IVF with sperm from a gay friend. Anywho, that's off topic.

I, personally, am not sure. I have an ex-friend who is openly gay (he's my ex-friend because we grew apart moving on to secondary school up to the point where I began to hate him, not because he's gay) and throughout primary school he was always different. As was I, but that's because I turned out to be a "geek", heh.

But I think he was always different to get attention. I mean, he was "sleeping" with girls when we were 13. And smoking weed. And drinking. Now that everyone our age is doing that (except smoking weed), he's had to move on to something else. So he's gay.

So whether he was born genetically programmed (god, I have been watching too much BSG recently) to be different and this lead to him being gay because of the friends he kept because the so-called normal people wouldn't muck about him, I don't know.
