(40,416 posts)And who said it was, to use your word, a "defect"? I certainly would not. I believe you were the one to introduce the word.
My quibble was that the article stated that homosexuality was inherited, which no science is saying is true.
So lighten up my friend.
Congenital does not necessarily mean inherited. Look it up. What science does say about homosexuality is that it is decidedly not a choice.
But there is substantive evidence that it is congenital. Whether that is genetic has not been determined, AFAIK. Data indicates rather strongly that it is not genetic, but related to embryology. That's within the perview of congenital.
I am using subtle scientific language here. The whole point of my post was to bring rationality to the dialog. Please understand that distinction.
Thanks much.
