studies show men are more likely to be gay when their fathers are very old, I wonder if that correlates. If the father is very old he may have less energy and ability to control the wife and keep her from mistreating the child. The woman might be more depressed because she has an old and unattractive husband that she only married for money.

My parents were under 30 when I was born. Try again, jonqui!

it's surely not a hard and fast rule, and not all children of old parents will turn out gay. Pollution may also play a part, or maybe your mom smoked or drank while pregnant. Could also be how you were raised. No father around, insane mother. That's what this study shows.

Nope. No absentee father here. No -ns-n- mother, either. And if pollution played a part, there would be no heterosexuals in California and all those cute surfer dudes in tight wetsuits would be asking for my number instead of wasting their hotness on girls.

why, are you assuming there is no pollution in california?

The air is much cleaner than it was in the 1980s and 1990s, clear enough to see all the garbage on the street and the rising homeless population.
