Perhaps my first post was worded poorly. I was not trying to suggest that homosexuality is a choice and unrelated to genetics. I was trying to say that it is not as simple as you are born genetically gay, or genetically straight.
The study that was brought to my attention in this thread showed that if one identical twin is gay, the other has a 50% chance of also being gay. Even though you were trying to be clever, it seems our scenarios mirror this study - even on a very small sample size
If this were a 100% correlation, it would be genetics, plain and simple. The fact that the incidence of two identical twins being gay is higher than fraternal twins being gay certainly suggests that there is some genetic aspect to it, as I thought.
