I read an article a while ago that showed a tendency for children either born of older parents, or children from very large families, to have a more likelihood to be gay.
A couple of the theories were children of older parents have a higher likelihood to have some kind of genetic defect and a tendency towards homosexuality prevents that child from passing it on through the population by limiting chances of re-production. With the large families, it was a way of conserving resources and population control. Not too far-fetched as some mammals in other species have shown similar results.
