I have zero doubt that you found this while questioning your own sexuality.

So gay men are the equivelent to alcoholics in making the opposite sex more attracted?
So you have the whatsis going how? This makes zero sense.

So...the "gay gene" makes people (of both sexes) more attractive to men? So instead of making guys gay, it makes guys more attractive to other men, meaning they are more likely to engage in homosexual relationships? Am I reading that right?

Lets say there's a "gay gene" that makes men far more likely to be gay than if they didn't have it. You'd think natural selection would select against it, unless it has an advantage to counter that disadvantage. The article is saying that if a woman inherits the "gay gene", it doesn't make her gay, instead it makes her more sociable, outgoing, funny, etc which in turn makes her more attractive to men, so she might have fewer problems finding a good man than a woman without the gene. Kind of like your stereotypical flaming gay man who is a little too energetic, that behavior may work better in a woman. The article suggests that the reproductive advantage this gene has when it is passed down to a woman may outweigh the occasional gay dead-end it runs into when passed down to a man.
