You're a spin doctor, but since you don't seem very knowledgeable about the basics of genetics and embryology it doesn't work in your favor.
You don't realize it but this only strengthens my point, that from a biological POW there is no difference between homosexuality and ADHD when it comes to classifying something as a disorder or not.
You can't make the clear distinction that you just made though. The only thing you can say for certain is that heritability is stronger for ADHD than it is for homosexuality, which in turn suggests that the genetical disposition also is stronger for ADHD than for homosexuality. But most likely there exists some genetical disposition to at least some forms of homosexuality, and some epigenetic factors that affect ADHD.
If anything, the conclusions from the claims you present above are that homosexuality resembles an illness/disorder/defect more than ADHD does and that homosexuality is a trait less selected for from an evolutionary POV than ADHD is. Do you realize that what you now make a big deal out of promotes the idea that homosexuality is an "illness" or defect?
