I don't know. I don't know about the specific genes involved. But you can figure out how much of any trait is inherited by studying correlations between parent-child especially interesting when children are adopted but *still* tend to have similar mental traits as the biological parent > I guess genes can be a used to explain homophobic behavior, racism, counter-semitism and misogyny too. Explain it *partially* yes. Studies out there even indicating that left/right-leaning politically and such is partially inherited. > Thanks for the convenient out for being born the way I am. You can't possibly think that your genes have not influenced who you are? And YES you should in fact be very happy about having been born White with White genes :)
