First of all, I don't know the answer to this question, I saw it on a TV show. I feel like I've been asleep the past 20 years when I did some subsequent reading about what they're learning about genetics, and chemical science.
Now they can target a gene in your body like eye color among others and invent medicine to either enhance or kill that gene. This is likely how different cancers will be cured.
If there is a gay gene, potentially someone will be able to make a medication to either turn it off or enhance it. The same gene in women would also make them attracted to men in theory. So a person could turn up their sex drive or others potentially.
Would it be moral to take a pill to hinder your attraction to men? Women etc? Would it be moral to give it to your kids? SHould a parent be able to get a gay vaccination for their son if he start "acting funny?"
Many may believe it's a godsend. A lot of the same people wouldn't believe in altering your genetic code at the same time.
If it had been found to be safe for at least 10 years I would probably take it if I liked men that way. Not because I hate gays but I'd rather just be as normal as possible in most regards. Neither being gay nor altering my DNA would sit right with me.
