Dear Ann Landers,
read that two genetic researchers, Dr. J. Michael Bailey at Northwestern University in Illinois and Dr. Richard Pillard of the Boston University School of Medicine, have turned up some convincing evidence about homosexuality based on studies of identical twins. The results have established that genes may play a major role in whether a person is gay or straight. Since there is now scientific evidence that homosexuals are born that way and their lifestyle is not something they choose, do you think peo-ple will be less hostile to and more tolerant of homosexuals? Please re-spond in the paper. This is a subject that a great many people are interested in and need to know more about. -Covina, Calif.
