Why would I want an FTM's eggs that are filled with a high level of testosterone or an MTF's sperm filled with a ton of estrogen for my son/daughter? That can't be good for the baby. I swear there are going to be a lot of children with health problems in the near future because of this shit.

Isn’t that literally one of the theories about what causes lesbianism — exposure to high rates of testosterone in the womb?

I vaguely remember there being research into the hormonal balance of a female's womb while their child is growing, and how that balance leads a child to be homosexual depending on the hormones and the sex of the baby.

I imagine researching the topic of "what causes people to be gay" to be a very controversial one and one probably hard to get funding for.

While I am curious and would be interested in the answer, I worry that whatever the answer is would be used as a weapon against us somehow.

It absolutely would. Honestly it's more likely to be used by the TRA's as "proof" we can overcome our bigoted genital fetishes moreso than the religious right nowadays, but they could also use it as some kind of proof that we're just fucked in the head.
