Is it in the Genes?

Hobbes, we were talking about "A Dr and his Wife" suing social services.

Dr's arent the only busy people; in this day and age many parents both have jobs and the kids are therefore more likely to get into trouble... ie: They're too Busy. This is not necessarily the fault of the parents, as putting food on the table and a roof over their heads must take priority, however it does say something about society as a whole.

The profession/Job of said parents is immaterial, except that most wouldnt be able to afford to sue Social Services. The fact that they can suggests that both parents in this case didnt NEED to be working, if indeed they were.....thats why my bet is on that.

can't inherit thoughts and feelings

Not so. Apparently you can inherit sexual preference feelings.

really?
so if ur pops was a sex fiend you can inherit that?
where was this proven?
i just dunno if i can agree

but i think if a gay guy has a child thru donating sperm to a couple in need
the kid may turn out gay.
because i hear that some homos brains actully show some characteristics of a female brain
(dont ask for source i read that 3 years ago)

im sure the construction of the brains characteristics can be inherited

Who teh fook told you having a "female" brain had anything to do with your sexuality?

That's something else. Incidentally a significant percentage of all males have what's known as a female brain. It's to do with how you process information.

I haven't heard of any definitive proof of homosexuality being hereditary. As far as I know it's to do with several factors, both biological and environmental.

Quite. Behaviour is entirely different to a physical trait such as eye-colour or height, it's much more complicated. Sexuality cannot be pigeon-holed as one or t'other. Same goes for criminal tendencies.

I thought soliloquy was quality. He's obviously put some thought into the word choice, there.

Which is nice.

It doesn't really work as a word choice though does it? I mean Hobbes is quoting someone to answer their point, and is actually questioning RF's views directly. Hardly someone talking to themselves...

Nice word though.

I used it 'cause he may as well had been.

Plus it was my chance to use the word soliloquy.

hobbes did meander a bit - how relevant is the anecdotal part about his dad being a top bloke; I'm presuming Busy was being sarcastic.

I just liked it

Maybe she just felt like mentioning that her Dad was a top bloke and used the thread as a vehicle to do that.

Like Busy used it to post the word "soliloquy". It was quite suite actually.

Kind of like how we all responded so we could prove we knew what the word meant.
