Let’s agree to disagree. I’m in a medical school setting of a major university working with MD psychiatrists and neuriscientists...even married to a psychiatrist.
My statements are far from politically correct and thus I must be careful not to rock the proverbial boat by publishing them. There are many factors influencing being gay. For example in over 50% of the 50-60 lesbians I tested the root cause was mother’s anger towards the child’s father while she was pregnant with the child. The first imprint on the tabula rasa and it carried through life.
Trauma with the same sex parent will predispose to being gay, but not opposite gender parent. Codependency with opposite sex parent can predispose, if a masculine mother or feminine father. I’ve found in several lesbians that the predisposition was merely due to behavior validation of being gay from birth.
In my research I separate intellectual attraction from emotional chemistry attraction from trauma attraction. There are sometimes multiple attractions. Sometimes it is merely peer presure and group identity validation when the child goes to college.
I’ve worked with several hundred gays on a one to one basis and thousands through group workshops. It is a complex subject as it is consciousness related and not genetic.
I try to read/review all new published research on this topic. Most of it is garbage.

This example is pretty much unfalsifiable. It depends on what you call anger.

Same.

Good and how did you know the difference?
My conclusion: You're a con artist posing as a legitimate expert to get credit when you should have none. You're every bit as disgusting and disgusted as a Russian Communist and you probably have the same ideas too. I've seen legitimate controversial research, but yours is definitely not one of them.
I notice that you very carefully avoid saying that you actually have any kind of medical/psychological credentials. Which begs the question of how you're testing anybody. It definitely shows in those ridiculous conclusions you whipped up.
"I try to read/review all new published research on this topic. Most of it is garbage."
Of course you do. Because most legitimate and objective research tells you you're wrong.
I’m in a medical school setting of a major university working with MD psychiatrists and neuriscientists..
Um, you work as WHAT? Because it certainly isn't as a “neuriscientist” (sic).
...even married to a psychiatrist.
Don't care. Let's hear your credentials if you're going to start making medical claims without any peer reviewed evidence to back them up.
example in over 50% of the 50-60 lesbians I tested the root cause was mother’s anger towards the child’s father while she was pregnant with the child.
Oh, this should be goood: HOW did you "test" people to support a massive fucking claim like the one I just quoted? No - I'm serious. This boils down to someone who could be a junior research assistant first leaning on the credentials of her husband and using them to make totally unsustainable claims like that, "[the] mother’s anger towards the child’s father..." causes lesbianism.
You TESTED the "root cause" of homosexuality in women and found...somehow that doesn't make sense...that back before these women were born, whilst their mothers were pregnant, their mothers were angry at their fathers - *specifically* at their fathers - which somehow traumatised the fetuses and you can test for that but you won't publish your results because they're not "politically correct"? BullSHIT . (Bullshit several times over: People publish all the time, and some of their conclusions are VERY unpopular. People who respond to journal articles shred each others' works on a pretty regular basis. Beyond that, "anger" - what...sustained anger over the course of a pregnancy? One example of extreme anger during the pregnancy? Five? Ten? 20? And while yes, you can ask a woman how her parents interacted when she was a kid, you have no insight into the interior world of the mother unless you also interview HER. She was angry? At whom? For how long? All those lesbians braught their MOMS to be analysed? Not a single, solitary chance in hell that ever happened anywhere to anyone ever. And that's just for starters. Show us your fucking "research" and I'll likely find a hundred other flaws.)
If you had developed anything like a test capable of detecting prenatal mental trauma as being the root of something you see as an illness, go collect your Nobel Prize right now.
OK, let's say for the sake of argument that being gay is a choice with no genetic component at all. How does that make it any different from people who prefer blondes to brunettes, or oral instead of piv, toys, bdsm, or even anal regardless of gender? How is it any different from someone who chooses to smoke or chew tobacco, become a vegetarian, join the NASCAR circuit, sky dive, or do any of the thousands of other things people do when they're not working or sleeping? Unless you're asked to participate, what business is it of yours? Especially since if you are asked, you're free to say, "No thanks." Because some book written by nomadic shepherds thousands of years ago on another continent says so?
Most people don't spend any time wondering about their neighbor's sex lives. Why do you?
Yeah, 'in a medical school setting' can be a lot of things.
Janitor, yes. He could also be the guy that cleans the toilets in the rest stop out on the interstate, and comes in every so often to sell his blood.
Let’s agree to disagree.
"I have nothing of substance left to back my argument. Let's just pretend I fought you to a stalemate."
For example in over 50% of the 50-60 lesbians I tested the root cause was mother’s anger towards the child’s father while she was pregnant with the child. The first imprint on the tabula rasa and it carried through life.
Oh, please do tell me how you determined that one. Interviewing the fetuses right after a fight, perhaps? "Hey! You in there! Do you feel like a lesbian now? Knock once for yes, twice for no." Whatever the answer, I'm confidant that it'll be much, much dumber than that.

You've already demonstrated that you're not qualified to make that assessment.
"Trauma with the same sex parent will predispose to being gay, but not opposite gender parent."
Sounds familiar.
"Suffering opposite-gender sexual abuse in childhood will turn the person off opposite-gender sex, causing him/her to seek out same-gender sex partners later in life. While suffering same-gender child sexual abuse will cause the person to develop a Stockholm Syndrome liking for same-gender sex, causing him/her to seek out same-gender sex partners later in life!"
I suspect that it isn't fear from the 'PC brigade' which has not led you to publish in medical journals, but a lack of success in publishing work fit for publication. I am assuming that you have bothered researching, your use of scientific language to bolster the usual vacuous nonsense is probably an act.

And why should we trust your opinion? You won't allow your work to be scrutinised, because of censorship, of course.
So, you reject most peer reviewed work because it doesn't fit your preconceived notions, you spout pseudoscientific bullshit about the mother's emotions affecting neural development in the womb with out the slightest shred of evidence, and you trot out the old abuse argument that has been debunked many times. Oh, and you ignore bisexuals.
How are you ... wait... you're a janitor or something, aren't you? That's the only way I can see someone like you working in a major university. And I'd wager my brother's a better janitor than you.
How do you get to mother's anger against father during pregnancy, by testing the child ?
Anger because of what? How angry? For how long?
Is there any pregnant woman that is NEVER angry at her spouse?
Trauma with same sex parent? So, if you're a woman and your mom rapes you, you become gay, but if your dad rapes you, you do not become gay? I'd say it was the other way around; if you were bisexual, and someone of the opposite gender raped you, you might focus more on people of the same gender from then on...
So, how do you separate intellectual attraction from emotional chemistry attraction from trauma attraction? What are the differences, the boundaries, the similarities?
Children seldom go to university; you're usually more or less adult when you enter higher education.
Doesn't the consciousness have genetics behind it?
I've read what you've written here, and it's definitely garbage.
Confused?
