Sexual BIASES are genetic, or at least an early-developmental
thing, however actual "preference" is something added TO the
innate bias and more a cultural/circumstantial thing. If you're
biased to be very gay, then nobody's gonna talk you into being
a hetero. But, if you're biased somewhere in the middle, you
could be tweaked in either direction, or both. (everyone seems
to forget the "both" option in these discussions - doesn't
fit the convenient black & white 'logic'). There's also a
'neither' dimension to the equation.

Regardless though, the only real 'solution' to this 'critical
issue' is to realize that there ISN'T a critical issue at all.
Doesn't matter where you fit in "homo/hetro/bi/neither-space",
not in the least. There will be FAR more than enough hetrosex
to over-perpetuate the species - and that's all "nature" and
Darwin care about.
