There is understandable apprehension by many people towards claims that biology plays a significant role in the etiology of homosexuality. These worries should not be allowed to deter any such work on sexual orientation. It is argued that the only proper way to evaluate biological analyses is against the full background of Darwinian evolutionary theory. Moral issues pertaining to biological research on homosexuality are addressed. Finally, it is urged that both biological and environmental factors be considered in rendering a true picture of homosexuality.
许多人对生物学在同性恋病因学中起重要作用的说法感到担忧，这是可以理解的。不应让这些担忧阻碍任何有关性取向的此类研究。有人认为，评估生物学分析的唯一恰当方式是在达尔文进化论的完整背景下进行。文中讨论了与同性恋生物学研究相关的道德问题。最后，敦促在呈现同性恋的真实情况时，要同时考虑生物学和环境因素。
