Would Gay people become extinct if? 10 points to best response?
If being Gay is genetic (you are born that way) and Gay marriage becomes legal. Wouldn't a more acceptable society..... drive gay people to stop breeding with the opposite sex and have a relationship with other gay people? Since 2 people of the same sex are not able to breed, wouldn't this be the end to gay people, since their genetics would not be passed on?
Since we are a series of genetic codes and that makes us "born the way we are". The only other way would be to say being gay is enviromental.
Saying a gay person can be born from two hetrosexuals is like saying a white person can be born from two black people, not going to happen.. Assuming that gay people are "born that way" is the key to the whole question here. People are not born with random traits

Not sure I understand the questions well but to make my point I'm going to say this.
In a heterosexual(not gay) family a child can be born that is gay.
Gay people adopt children or get a surrogate mother. One of the gay guys seed is medically inserted in the surrogate mother's womb).
Lesbian women family can have children by getting a sperm donor.
That's just few examples.
If a lesbian or gay family have children it doesn't mean that the child is gay, sexual orientation is not inherited it's a unique thing.

No. Gay people are not sterile. They can breed just as well as anybody else. There are plenty of gay people who have had children through IVF, sperm donors or surrogates.

How ignorant you are. I was born from two heterosexuals as was my wife, and every gay and lesbian person we've ever known. Get an education so you can stop sounding like a clueless bigot.

don't think each other can believe in one another. Cause if your born gay wouldn't you be that way your whole life. So really evaluation stats you chosen to be gay. Not born that way. N evaluation stats to remove genes that doesnt reproduces. So evaluation sees homosexuality as a cancer that shows up from time to time. Draw your lines in the concrete.

Gay people will not become extinct because of any perceived inability to breed with the opposite sex. All gay people come from straight parents, and some children born of straight parents will be gay.

So, you are saying gay people carry a "gay" gene, and that the only reason gay people exist is because gay people have procreated to pass on the genes... theoretically, if this were true, yes it would be possible, but this is not the case in real life.

You don't understand genetics.
Even if your premise is correct, this would do nothing... Have you ever heard of recessive genes? It would take 100,000 years too breed something as tenuous as sexuality out of the human race.

You just went full retard. It's not hereditary seeing as it is thought to come from an epi-gene that influences the hormonal balances in the womb which in turn determines sexuality during the fetal stage.

So....you think people are gay because gay people can't marry, so they marry heteros and produce gay children? Adorable!
