But why is that true? Is it because the society we have is currently not built for gay people? That’s kind of my point: genetic engineering makes this rationalized eugenics the “optimal” decision in some sense, which is morally horrifying.
The relationship between gayness and various poor outcomes has to do mostly with biology, not social factors. Society used to be very hostile to gays, now it's the opposite, but associations stay the same, suggests different causes. (No surprise there.)
