I talked to my parents, and they don't support me for being gay. I kept trying to tell them it wasn't their fault that I'm gay, but they constantly think it is. I keep trying to convince them that I was born gay, because I've always felt gay like this. Why won't they believe me that I was born gay, Olivia? What is your advice for that situation?

Aw well sorry to hear that. Well, they dont have solid evidence that people are born gay. But here is something that may lead to homosexuality that wasn't "fully proved"...
The study had at least three glaring weaknesses:
1. It was based on a small group of 41 male cadavers, including 19 homosexual males. All of the homosexual men had died of AIDS, something that many researchers believe could very well account for or contribute to the differences (in the brain stem).
2. There is no way to determine if the smaller hypothalamuses were the cause or the result of homosexual behavior.
3. The area of the brain LeVay was measuring (the INAH3) was quite small — smaller than snowflakes, according to scientists interviewed. His peers in the neuroscientific community couldn’t agree on whether the INAH3 should be measured by its size and volume, or by its number of neurons.
Of course if your parents are christians though, most likely they don't believe that people are born gay and you can't really do anything to convice them that. The Bible declares it is sin over and over... sorry ;-/ and I don't mean that in an insulting way. But they should still support you. If I was in your position I would tell them its not their fault and that you love them very much, but that is how you're going to be and if they can do one thing to help you out with the situation the least they could do is support you.
This was a very tough one. But I really hope I helped. I wish you luck.
