Any gene that caused homosexuality would not survive.  It doesn't
matter if gay people have children.  They have LESS children, and that
is all it takes.  Any trait that reduces the likelihood of reproduction
will disappear exponentially.  It is true that homosexuality was more
common in some ancient societies, but that was probably due to differing
social traditions.

The only gay genes I know of are Levi 501's.  (sorry about that)
