Having more than 1 gay child? / myLot

A girl I worked with back in high school, added me to Facebook and started talking. She was telling me about two brothers we worked with (different times), saying both of them are gay. How ca there be 2 children in 1 family be gay?. I sat there and going why does it matter, and I don't know. I mean she's saying it's from their childhood and parenting. I don't think it works that way, it's each person (so yes 2 can be in 1 family) but how many people do we know this happening too?.

Of course it is possible. Maybe I just know a lot of gay people - it's not that unusual. I just met my friend's sister - they both happen to be "gay" - and they have one more sister who is not. And I agree - it doesn't matter.

We cannot know the real reasons why do people became such. It happens for so many factors as they said, it could be the environment and some claimed it is in the genetic structure. Whatever the reasons, I don't have any thing against them.

I have a friend that her and her brother are both gay. It does happen more often then you might think but it has nothing to do with the way they were raised.

I have heard of it before, its rare but it happens. In fact I have a cousin who's twin boy and girl are both gay. Anything is possible and it has nothing to do with parenting in my opinion. It happens within the womb. I know many won't believe it. However, if you talk to a gay person they will tell you they knew they were different at a very early age. I know some end up gay due to being continuous molested at an early age too.

I really don't know how that happens and how many families have the same situation. But I have an aunt who is a lesbian and his brother is a gay and their dad was once a Colonel. I didn't know how that ever happened when their dad was so strict being a military man.

Anything is possible. It's like having twins the likely hood isn't out of the question. Anyone can be gay weather they are siblings or not it can even be just cousins.
