Hi for the record I have two elder brothers by 10 and 8 years respectively both straight. I have a second cousin who is gay and he has an elder brother who is straight.

Hi Matt! Good to see you here tonight. Like you, all my brothers are a good deal older than me. The brother nearest in age to me is 10 years older than me. My eldest brother, John, is 17 years older than me. Looks like we're both classic Brother Factor statistics - haha!  :)

Interesting angle of study. I have heard other theories that suggest in utero hormones might have an affect on a fetus. But this is the first study I've heard of that links "anti-male" anti-bodies to homosexuality. But that certainly doesn't explain lesbians.

FWIW, I have 2 younger brothers: one gay, one straight. I also have a male cousin on my mom's side who is gay.

The Canadian study was of men only - 944 of them. I've not heard of any related female studies. Has anyone!  ???

I am gay, and the oldest in my family.  I have two younger brothers.

I also have a few gay cousins.


Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I am gay but I have no brothers. I have one younger sister and she is straight. But I do have a gay uncle and had a grandma who dabbed in bisexuality.

Merci KristinDaBomb !

That is very interesting your post!

May I add this as something to think about:
Why would Raymond and his brother
not go to Hawaii - in the series Everybody Loves Raymond! - do you know?

Au revoir,
hugs!
