- I'm a little out of date on the science of sexuality, but when I was young
- the social scientists claimed that one early sexual experiences had an
- inordinate amount of influence on the eventual sexual orientation of an
- indivual. In short if someone as a child had homosexual experiences then
- they were more likely to grow to be a homosexual. Now I don't know if this is
- true, but when I was young it was accepted as scientific fact. Now you are
- claiming another scientific fact that directly contradicts what I learned.
- Very confusing. Which is fact? Or are they both right and at the same time
- both wrong? Science is not God, it is our current best guess, let's keep
- that in mind. My best guess is that the Oilers are going to win the
- Super Bowl!
