Are you saying my mom and dad are gay?

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 50 points 6 days ago

Not necessarily, but if your parents couldn't have any children, chances are you won't either.

Yes. Your father, a man with one ear pierced (the gay one), went to the gay mom store and asked to meet the owner.

Meet the owner or meat the owner?

Gayness is a spectrum. I'm like 99% straight, but if Ryan Reynolds was offering... That would be hard to pass up.

Based on what my moms have told me about being gay and in the closet before the 90s this is more common than you would think.

No, I said that your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

Fun topic because being gay and having autistism both have potential genetic components but neither can be explained by genes alone.

Based on twin studies, it's likely they'll both display either have the trait or neither will but it is no 100% which indicates there is something else at play.
