Homosexuality and issues with one's same-sex parent

[Pix]

Why doesn't anyone ask if mommy or daddy issues aren't the reason why so many are straight? After all, so many have them...heck, even a look at popular comedies even reflect the frequent alienation & dysfunction between parents & kids, even after the kids are grown up.

And don't all psychologists pretty much ask about your parents and upbringing as par the course, or is that just pop psychology?

I haven't spoken to my father for 23 years, but never once I have even remotely considered that the lack of a father-son relationship contributed to my sexuality.

Why? Because when I was 8 years old when my father was a father, I was looking up boys shorts to see their willies. I was gay before I developed any father 'issues'. Nuture has nothing to do with sexuality.
