scritch, sritch scratch
That's the sound of people scraping the Bush/Cheney stickers off their bumper.
Sigh
That's them hoping the neighbors forget they ever saw it.

Everything in life is shades of gray. All except death.

A person is a complex set of chemistry and I'd guess that in certain cases their are a combination of genes that no environmental stimulus can overcome and that person is hard over with whatever condition. Just as there is that case for one direction their is the case for the extreme in the opposite direction.

The properties of genes that defeat procreation over time by fact get removed from the gene pool. But the modern era is really the first era where open conscious extinction is happening on a larger scale. But in the world today rape and selected (forced) marriages still persist and this mitigates the elimination of the hard genes that defeat procreation.

So those who can be seduced may be seduced and their genes will become extinct. What does that mean in the big picture of billions of genes is anyones guess.

I must say that most of the men I know seem to have been blessed with the hardover procreation genes and many wish that their significant others were as strongly inclined.
