After studying everything that has been written about homosexuality, I have the opinion that it occurs unconsciously and that it is the same as a hen hatching a duck egg. The baby ducks quickly imprint on whoe-ver raises them and sees the hen as its mother and tend to follow and stay close to her. This phenomenon is like a photograph: the duck responds to the first thing it sees. In the case of sexual orientation, there is a photograph that is taken and that focuses attention on a male or a female. Once children do this, the photograph becomes an attractive object. Once established, it is like vision or language, a window closes in the brain, and it will never leave you.
