You probably suspected this already - but the causative factor is…vaccination.
I’d be tempted to dismiss the article as an April Fool’s joke, but the source is Italy (where cellphones have already been officially deemed to cause cancer and satanic murder conspiracies abound), so it could well be for real.
Wait! Don’t get that flu shot! Nooooooo…
Right. Because we all know that before vaccinations, there were no gay people.:rolleyes:
I cannot begin to tell you what is wrong with that statement.
So are Jenny McCarthy’s kids gay now?
Ah the Italians. Lovely country, delightful people, fabulous cuisine. Unfortunately they seem to be governed by lunatics and have mad scientists everywhere.
Wait a minute. I got all of the recommended vaccinations when I was a kid, and I’m still not fabulous. What the hell happened?
I’ve always enjoyed P. J. O’Rourke’s take - “Italy is not technically part of the third world, but no one has told the Italians.”
Don’t let it worry you, he says that drinking urine is the perfect cure.
Whose? That of a same sex person or an opposite sex person? What if that person has had vaccinations?
You didn’t get the glitter treatment?
Yeah, where the hell is my fashion sense? Dammit…
The damn quack didn’t mention that it was an option.
Birth?
I know! All the gay guys I see are incredibly fit and gorgeous (at least on the web sites…what?) and I didn’t get any of that!!!
Probably those catamite’s and their advanced program of vaccination that cause the fall of Rome as well.
Damn their eyes!!! (we need a Marty Fledman smiley) 
You get more Mercury from eating fish than you would from the vaccine.
Oh.
My.
God.
That explains a lot! Fish for Lent and the whole Catholic Church thing! McDonalds Fish Filets. Red Lobster. Jesus and the whole “I will make you Fishers of Men” thing!
The mind reels!
Fishing reels?
How oxymoronic is that? Everybody knows gays can’t have children, silly!
I’ll be sure to tell mom and her partner.
Silly Italian scientist! An Austrian scientist already explained homosexuality: an overbearing mother treats her son like her surrogate lover, so that he never outgrows his Oedipus Complex when the incest taboo would normally overwhelm it. He reacts to the conflicted revulsion by becoming a woman himself, going so far as to offering his anus as a grotesque orfice for fertilization, “birthing” bowel movements representing a continuation of the “gifts” presented to his mother long past when he should have outgrown his anal phase.
Sounds just a stupid as the anti-vax theory, but our grandparents believed it (that is, the enlightened ones who didn’t simply see it as Satanic)
The problem with stories like the one in HuffPo is the very fine line between satire and reality.
I can vouch for the vaccines-cause-homosexuality theory from personal experience. Our female Labrador pup got her vaccines, and next thing you know she’s dragging her dog bed across the floor, energetically humping it. If that isn’t proof I don’t know what is.
C’mon, real urine drinkers only drink their own urine. Otherwise it would be, like, disgusting. And word is, your own urine is healthiest.
