A WORD FROM THE ADMIN II
Let me begin by using myself as an example. As a admin new to a forum where the commenters are fierce, opinionated and unapologetic about what they have to say,

October 23, 03:19Not sure about fact 1, but fact 2 holds sounds more accurate to me

October 23, 04:32fact one is more correct #personalOpinion

October 23, 04:43I wonder how the facts were arrived it. These are not even logical generalizations however in a world where people wakes up and say anything no matter how unfounded just to suit their purpose and fancy,the above can find a place.
Dennis Macauley
October 23, 06:24There is such a thing as research, which involves data collection by way of questionnaires and then pattern observation and analysis!
It’s a process carried out before it becomes a fact!
People don’t just “wake up and promulgate unfounded generalizations”

October 23, 11:43Thanks for the lecture. U forgot to say the source of this research eg: the researcher, year, where it was carried out and the type of respondents interacted with etc. My own observation (not a result of research) is that last bornes are likely gays but I know that anybody can be gay his birth position not withstanding. I have seen a family where all the 3 boys are gay. So for me to consider this uberfact, more light need to be thrown on it
McGray
October 23, 05:06I think both are correct

October 23, 05:32I disagree with both. I have been in a LDR, which lasted for about 2years not until he got married.
How did UF concluded such survey? Did he do heads counts? Or he just assumed??? HBD jboy

October 23, 06:32The first study says “33%” (probabiltity) and the second says “average”. So if one’s LDR lasts 50 years or they have 10 older brothers yet they are not gay, it doesn’t negate the facts.
chestnut
October 23, 06:46D “fact” doesn’t mean that a guys with older brothers are 33% likely to be gay; it means that for “EACH” older brother, there’s a 33% chance of being gay…that is to say that a guy with 4 older brothers has 132% chance of being gay…

October 23, 11:52I must confess that the interactions on this blog has a way of lightening my spirit. This response just kept me smilling
gad
October 23, 11:48Thanks for this insight. In all humility, I must admit that the meaning is clearer now.tnks again
Absalom
October 23, 12:03You’re right, Chestnut. I read that fact wrong. That’s a heavy study result if it’s true! Google is my friend.
chestnut
October 23, 06:49Shuga, u relationship may have lasted that long depending on d agreement/arrangement/understanding u guys had. Did u ever sleep with anyone else during the duration of ur relationship? Did he?
Max
October 23, 07:41I think you guys were just fooling yourselves.. You have no idea what he did behind your back… And neither does he know what you did behind his..
Let’s just say you guys were occasional hook up buddies.. once in a while when you see..
Max
October 23, 07:42Yeah forgot to add- He got married immediately after …which means he was dating her when you guys were in your presumed relationship…
*hisses loudly and throws away face…
daniel
October 23, 08:04I love this comment Max, they were fooling around, LDRs don’t cut it for me, I can’t understand how people even initiate it, makes me sick.
JustJames
October 23, 05:59I’ve read in a psychology textbook that for every elder bro you have the more likely it is for you to be gay. I think the text author was John Meyer or so.. I’ll have to confirm though. But I have definitely seen fact 1 somewhere I would call legit in my search for answers as to why I’m gay.
chestnut
October 23, 06:40@that first “fact”: um…what?so a guy that has 3 older brothers has 99% chance of being gay? I don’t think so.actually,I believe the opposite; u see, I think part of the reasons I was drawn to guys at an early age is d fact that I don’t have a brother. Dad was the only other male figure in d house and I constantly wished I had a brother/brothers…I always craved that brotherly love/bond and some of my earliest fantasies were about having a brother with whom I was really close and affectionate…#OkBye

*reaches for glasses and dictionary*
chestnut
October 23, 07:09Lol…Liar! I didn’t even use any big words in my comment jor!
Max
October 23, 07:46@Chestie, I don’t think so.. I use to think the same too.. Infact I blamed having sis’ as the source of my gayness.. Bcos thats what we were meant to believe..
I can tell you for a fact that 99% of all the gay people I’ve ever met have brothers… Either younger or older.. And only about 1% have only sisters..
chestnut
October 23, 09:10No,max,I’m not saying having no brother makes one gay; we are born with our sexualities already. I’m just saying that for me, d lack of male companionship while growing up made me long for male-company even more.
#TeamKizito
October 23, 07:09Hmmm,
king
October 23, 07:22I am sooooo ooo agreeable to fact 1. Wow so true. I knew a family that had three brothers however theirs was better coz all of them had caught the gay bug and of course yours truly was a partner to their thrysts!!! Hehehehe
Lothario
October 23, 08:25King….. Lol! Tell me something, where do you draw the line?
Max
October 23, 07:37I’ve read a reseaech made which proved fact 1 to be true…
The research also showed that every gay person has a high percentage of having a gay uncle from the maternal side.
Can’t remember where I saw it. Will try and find it and post the link here…
I always always open several tabs at once, sometimes up to 50…
king
October 23, 08:28Agree with u on the gay uncle bit coz I had a cousin who has a gay uncle…hmm makes me wonder tho should I go cross-check ing on all my maternal uncles to see the gay one!
lluvmua
October 23, 10:54King , king, king !!! How many times did I call u ? When will u repent and stick 2 1 boi? Smh!!! Lol #okbye #still waiting 4 ur twitter handle / contacts !! *winks*
Khaleesi
October 23, 11:04****rips off gossaner satin shawl to reveal goosebumps*** did you say ‘maternal uncle’?? I have a maternal uncle, he’s much older – in his early 50s, he’s never been married despite endless persuasion & coercion from his family … I have often wondered if he’s gay,but since we arent close and he lives abroad, I’ve never been able to find out … I have also heard that growing up he was very bookish and cburchish and never had a girlfriend like all ‘the others’ …. I just wonder ***looks around and shudders tremulously***
Lothario
October 23, 08:23Neither is true….for us firstborns, what then?
Mr Bassey
October 23, 09:45Abi oooo.
pinkpanthertb
October 23, 14:40Lol. Exactly Lothario. What about us firstborns
Mr Bassey
October 23, 09:43The first one I disagree with, the second one is true….
Ruby
October 23, 09:52First of all… I aint got an older Brotha buh I’m GAY as Blazes… *Wrong Fact Uber Facts*
Secondly… I was away on NYSC and my relationship Didn’t Crumble… *Wrong Again Uber Facts*
lluvmua
October 23, 10:47Hell no !!!! *hits table* I don’t agree with fact 2! ! My last relationship which was a LDR lasted for 4 good years be4 I finally called it off! *flips virgin hair and walks out*
Khaleesi
October 23, 11:08I think I agree with fact1, most of the gay guys I kmow have elder brothers … although I know quite a few who are only sons or first sons … No hard and fast rule …
Fact 2: I’ve never rlly been in a LDR so cant comment on that ….
Neon
October 23, 17:55Fact 1 is damn correct in most cases… Speaking out of experience. Fact 2… Uhmmm! Quite true, as the vigor in any DR dwindles at such a stage.
RUDE
October 23, 18:20Max you just have to find that link cos I do have a gay uncle from the maternal side. What then happens to we the first borns?? I have 5 younger ones and they don’t show any gay tendencies. Wouldn’t mind a gay brother though.
