4. No one answered the OP’s most important question, which was whether the absence of a father, and indeed antipathy toward the father and perhaps excessive closeness to the mother can contribute to a homosexual orientation. The answer is yes, though the PC police will come out of the woodwork denying it is so.


I don’t see one single thing in the OP which points to his friend as being gay or bisexual. Actually the “anti-gender-stereotype” types on board here are the very ones jumping to that conclusion based on the OP! Ironic, isn’t it.
If the friend is depressed, the best advice would probably be to urge him to see a therapist who has no agenda one way or the other as to sexual orientation to discuss the possible causes for his depression.




Regarding number 6, isn’t number 4 exactly such an agenda item? Do you have and studies to back up what you are suggesting? Or is it just coming from your gut?

It was the OP’s question which pointed to the possibility that the friend might be gay – and that’s where the sarcastic responses came from. Because, if they were like me, none who posted a sarcastic response has any agenda other than hoping that the person in question, if he is gay, is accepted for who he is without rancor or prejudice. What’s wrong with that?
