Scientists possibly located the "Gay Gene"

[Tank]

I wonder what would happen if stem-cell research could pave the way for a gay cure.

Paradox!

Ugh. Even barely thinking like a religionist for only a moment makes me want to wash my brain.

Random world-wide ballot. A figurehead is chosen and makes the decisions for a year before getting superseeded by the next random figurehead.
This way, each year, all babies born are pretty damn different from the previous year's versions.
That'd be fair

Sounds barbaric, if a parent was deciding for the baby not to have a disease, that's one thing. But, homosexuality isn't a disease. I didn't want to know what sex my son was before the birth, I don't see his sexuality as being an issue one way or the other. If he's gay then he's gay, if he's hetro then he's hetro. Makes no difference to me. I wouldn't allow anyone to tamper with my baby unless it was a life or death situation.
