Has a ‘Gay’ Gene Been Discovered in Korea?

According to a post on Popsci:

The sex habits of mice have long been an intriguing subject for scientists. Now, mouse sex just got a lot more interesting for the rest of us.
A group of Korean geneticists has altered the sexual preferences of female mice by removing a single gene linked to reproductive behavior. Without the gene, the mice gravitated toward mice of the same sex. Those mice who retained the gene, called FucM, were attracted to male mice. (FucM is short for fucose mutarotase.)
The geneticists’ study, published last week in the journal BMC Genetics explains that female mice without FucM avoided male mice, declined to sniff male urine, and made passes at other females.

The Korean scientist said it will be difficult to find human volunteers to try to gain concrete evidence, but with modern technology, it shouldn’t be too difficult to imagine that others will follow the lead and perhaps a ‘gay’ gene will be discovered. Then maybe scientist can work on proving that Jesus didn’t ride dinosaurs. Oh, that’s right, they did that, just not everyone believes it. Regardless, I’m sure this will have the religious right heads spinning. No wonder they don’t support stem cell research. God forbid (literally) they be proven wrong for spewing bigotry and bias. But seriously, this would surely throw a wrench into the cogs of the religious right machine as they already think that science is bad for being able to predict deformities and developmental issues in unborn fetuses. Now there could be a way to prevent gay babies from being born. So, would they support a woman’s right to choose if it meant choosing to not have a gay child, or would they simply continue to discriminate against that child after it was born?
