I prefer to think of human society (as a whole) as being capable of self-organizing behavior. Therefore, when populations increase to stretch the living conditions to a breaking point, society (not nature) will find ways to reduce the problem. The easy argument would be to say that if homosexuality is genetic, then nature is the culprit (a thinning of the herd action). However, I still maintain that if a human society faces enough duress, it can force physical changes to manifest in the population. For example, amphibians can undergo spontaneous sex changes if their populations are too tilted toward one gender.
On a related topic, would we all agree that humans who suffer from Down's Syndrome exhibit certain similar physical features? The extra chromosome obviously causes changes in facial characteristics that are similar throughout their population subset. I would also offer that anyone attending a women's basketball game would notice that several of the alternative lifestyle females in the crowd seem to exhibit similar facial features to each other.
No, not all lesbians look alike. Of course not. However, it seems plain to me that many, many lesbians do have remarkably similar facial characteristics, and this lends credence to the notion that homosexuality is a physical manifestation; i.e., not by choice.
