New research adds a twist to the debate on the origins of sexual orientation, suggesting that the genetics of mothers of multiple gay sons act differently than those of other women. Scientists found that almost one fourth of the mothers who had more than one gay son processed X chromosomes in their bodies in the same way. Normally, women randomly process the chromosomes in one of two ways -- half go one way, half go the other.
The research "confirms that there is a strong genetic basis for sexual orientation, and that for some gay men, genes on the X chromosome are involved," said study co-author Sven Bocklandt, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California at Los Angeles.

For me I wonder what it means If My Mom only had 1 gay Son (me)? My younger brother who is No longer alive was straight. It reads about Moms of multible gay sons,I just wonder if I fall into that catagory being the only gay Son? I have cousins who are gay.
Sounds like there are a lot of question marks about how well this study will stand up over time.
