  • This is amazing research and I hope it continues! I am especially interested in the development occurring in the womb. The ideal of antibodies being produced that immune the y chromosome, is amazing, but is going to be difficult to get social acceptance. But it is needed, to help refine peoples prospective and thus attitudes and behavior toward tolerance. Also it's so great that Adam's mother is so accepting of her son, thus giving him a positive sense of self...it is so critical!

  • That little kid is so cute! haha

  • Im just wondering. If sexual orientation is indeed set before birth. What would homophobe religious communities try to tell themselves?

    I have a feeling that suddenly gene and hormone therapy would be okay in the eyes of "god.."

  • hahaha poker face @ 6:07

  • @Lightning1017 They don't "turn" gay. They've been gay their entire lives, they've just been lying to themselves in fear of being who they really are because either their family, community, or friends would disown them.

  • Well, one more question. Why some people turn gay after marriage or having kids?!

  • Ok im confused someone needs to study me cuz im am the first born son yu see and im 16 already i am indeed bisexual now my two younger brothers are no wear near gay so how does the older brother effect come into play here??

  • Dr. Breedlove... how ironic.

  • The key to the whole "older brothers" theory is right under their noses at 4:50. If a boy is born left-handed, his chances of being gay are no different because he already has his own separate and unique identity as a lefty. He doesn't have to compete with his brothers because he's already "special". If he's right-handed like his older siblings, he must find his uniqueness in another way.

  • Older brother effect means the 19 Kids and Counting family has a lot of reparative therapy in their future.
