I'm afraid you've rather contradicted yourself there.

You say 'in the first instance children learn from their parents', implying lesbianism is something that is taught by example, i.e. nurture.

You then give the contradictory statement that 'a lesbian is a lesbian because of here genes', and that lesbianism is a genetic quirk of nature. Which today is the more accepted understanding when it comes to the sexual orientation of the animal kingdom.

Rather odd, and a little bit creepy, that you seem so preocupied with lesbianism. As the same issues you talk about apply equally to both men and women when it comes to same gender parenting.

Perhaps it's just some genetic defect that makes you see things this way.
