Opinion

Having gay parents will affect the upbringing of their children, as the kids as exposed to more homosexual behaviors than heterosexual household. [Supervisor's note: this is not true. Exposure to any sexual orientation does not affect one's own sexual orientation]

Answer

In order for a parent who is gay to have gay offspring they would first have to engage in heterosexual relations and secondly have the chemistry of a gay gene or trait to pass on to the offspring.

In 2003, Human Genome Project, was completed. There is absolutely no evidence of a gay gene.

Answer

Recent evidence shows that homosexuality is caused by a mixture of both genetic and prenatal hormonal factors:

There is no evidence of a single gay gene; a vaguely understood sequence of genes appears to be involved. Combined with the fact that uterine environment is so important, having a gay parent will likely not be the deciding factor in a child's orientation.

Far more telling, would be a child whose mother had already born other children of that child's same sex and was herself from a very large or fertile family.

Why is the offspring not identical to parent in asexual reproduction?

In asexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to the parent because of variations that can occur during the process of DNA replication and cell division. These variations can result in small genetic differences between the parent and offspring, leading to genetic diversity in the population.
