Nature vs nurture, any thoughts? I know I did a persuasive essay about nature vs nurture in my health class and I was definitely on the side of nature, but who knows really? I mean, what I researched was very convincing, and very scientific and everything, but at the same time I believed everything I was reading about nature, I also had this haunting feeling that nurture could be part of it as well..
I think it depends, really. I know nature is supposed to be this... foolproof argument because of genes and the fact that you're born with whatever you have, but I really think it's both. I mean, there are recessive genes. If the gay gene exists, it'd be recessive right? Maybe that recessive gene doesn't come out (no pun intended...okay maybe a little
) until it's "nurtured" out of you, if that makes any sense? That's the one part that makes sense to me about nature (no vs) and nurture. Maybe it has to be both for certain (not all) people to become gay..I'm just thinking out loud here, but I'd like to read more on this, so if anyone has any links to any good sources of information, research, studies, or anything, please post them. Also, I want to hear opinions as well. From what you know already, what do you think?
