To b_brandon49, who i shall refer to fondly in the future as "dumbass"
No one makes someone else gay. It looks like you went on and on but frankly, I don't care to read the rantings of a homophobic wack job. BTW, your big Scrabble word is defined only as "an umbrella term that describes lasting change to the brain throughout an animal's life course". So you are talking about a very broad term and trying to apply it to what, why people are gay or not?? and gee yes, people knew that word existed in the 1970s. We had a man on the Moon in 1969, did you hear?
Have a nice day, and hey, join the 21st century if you get a chance. And why the "PS"? Did you think you were just writing to one person?
Jodie. No y.

You can't "make someone gay" because if it could be done I'd already have converted Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds and Gerard Butler.

You are putting way too much into a fictional show about fake people.

Actually experts agree that certain things that happen in childhood can contribute to a person's sexual identity(not just gay or strait) but in other ways as well. There is no current proof that one is born gay. Scientists have tried to pin point a gay gene,but have failed to do so. Either way I don't think it really matters. As for it always being permanent. I don't know. Everyone thinks it's so weird that in the last season of Soap Jody questioned his sexuality. These days shows have shown hetrosexual people questioning their sexuality as late as their 40s and 50s so whose to say. I've known people that think sexuality is fluid and not set in stone. I can't say that's the case for me, but again who knows. As for Jody's dad making him gay because he was mean or belittled him. I don't recall Soap ever expressing any such thing. Jody's day was a mobster, but as I recall that is something Danny didn't find out until he was older and Mary and Jody didn't know. Mary told Bert she loved Danny and Jody's father very much which tells me he was probably good to his family. I also don't think Mary favored Danny. In fact at times I thought she was more protective of Jody. Really I don't think anyone actually knows what makes someone gay. I doubt it was because his dad wasn't nice to him.

I agree with you that it's something that you're born with, but I do think your experiences shape your sexuality to some extent. I don't believe it's possible to "make him gay" or that the writers were going for that situation.
I'm just expressing my opinion.
You may all go to hell, and I will go to Texas.

No, the events in a person's life can't affect a person's sexuality. It's something you're born with and permanent.

I'm no expert, but I would be inclined to believe that the events of someone's life will affect his or her sexuality. As for something making him gay, there are only two small problems with that theory: 1) he's not a real person and the writers never gave any clue that this was the case; and 2) this would have to assume that he was heterosexual to begin with, but there's no indication of that, either.

Made him gay? Are you really that ignorant that you think someone or something can make a person gay? Tell you what. Let's meet up and I'll turn you gay.

Yeah, that seems legit. . .
Not real bright, are you?
WORDS MEAN THINGS!

I think you're putting way too much thought into this. It was just a television show!

How many "made him gay" posts are you going to make? Are you sure you're not gay?
