I really don't think there is a cure unless we can reprogram a person's mind somehow. It would really be going into unethical territory to try to change something like that. Then we might start to see us trying to change people's minds to manipulate all sorts of different interests and personality traits. Perhaps we can program a mind to never question authority or to work excessively on one subject matter without need for breaks. Or perhaps program a mind at birth to fulfill positions in society that are needed and them be "happy" to do so regardless of what the person's natural personality progression would have been before the reprogram. Not only would this be forcing an identity on the child but taking away the right of the family to raise it truly as their own.
I really don't think people would be willing to go that route.
I'm not even sure it is something that could even be reprogrammed. that would be implying that it is environmentally based. I'm not sure it is. I've seen really really young kids who it was obvious that they would turn out to be homosexual and they do.
There is even some evidence to the suggestion that everyone is really bi and that we are trained to shift primarily one way or another through our upbringing. Men are showered with masculine expectations and through interaction with other guys establish a barrier with women and wonder about the other side. They are expected to fulfill a strong role and as such are drawn to more fragile forms which is what the girls are traditionally expected to take on. When those roles are not strongly emphasized or when memories or events happen in such a way through either perfectionism, extreme intelligence, confidence issues, or egotism, are they more susceptible to being homosexual?
And if that were the case, is it right for us to force our children into a particular mentality out of fear that they might grow in a way that we would deem inappropriate, however harmless if treated with similar moral expectations? Would it be just for us to force every child to be raised the same way taking away the freedoms from the families and the right of the child itself to find its own place in life? Would this kill the beautifully wide spectrum of possibilities that make life so interesting?
But then it could also be a mutation in the DNA. Something that "could" be considered a natural progression, but I don't know enough about DNA sequencing to know if it can be altered successfully and at what risks.
