Is there any scientific evidence that homosexuality is a learned behavior?
New Evidence Found for Childhood Family Factors Influencing Sexual Orientation
By this I am not advocating or agreeing with Lesbians/homosexuals adopting or using AI to have a family but just speculating that statistics will probably show it does not have an affect on their sexual orientation. How balanced and how good they will cope with relationships etc is open to debate and I would say is dependent upon the normal male/female role models they have had contact with. In the case we are discussing I would say that interaction with Mary's sister's family and Dick and Lynne Cheney the grandparents will and should be very important and I am sure that Mary and Heather are intelligent enough to know this.
