Scientists have determined that homosexuality is likely determined by markers on the X chromosome, but a specific gene has not yet been found, with the exception of Xq28, which seems to be only valid within male homosexuals.
Uhmm, the Xq28 is the study that my article was disputing. INVALID STUDY!

But if you want some actual valid sources, i can provide that for you? Try things like
The American Journal of Psychiatry:
Bailey, J. M. and D. S. Benishay (1993). "Familial Aggregation of Female Sexual Orientation." American Journal of Psychiatry 150(2): 272-277
Or maybe something a little more "popular" like Science:
LeVay, S. (1991). "A Difference in Hypothalamic Structure Between Heterosexual and Homosexual Men." Science 253: 1034-1037.
Or maybe you want something from overseas, in case only American scientists want to prove Gays are born that way
British Medical Journal:
Baron, M. "Genetic Linkage and Male Homosexual Orientation", British Medical Journal , August 7, 1993.
And, if you really want a web-link, here's a link for the NCBI, probably the single best source for information on genetics research.

Thanks, I'll look into them.
