More info from scientific research:

The 1993 twin studies paper has been thoroughly debunked by researchers.
NARTH Scientific Advisory Committee member Dr. Neil Whitehead, for example,
has authored detailed rebuttals to this flawed study and others that purport
to show a genetic origin to homosexual behaviors.

Whitehead, writing in "The Importance Of Twin Studies," notes:

Identical twins have identical genes. If homosexuality was a biological
condition produced inescapably by the genes (e.g. eye color), then if one
identical twin was homosexual, in 100% of the cases his brother would be
too. But we know that only about 38% of the time is the identical twin
brother homosexual. Genes are responsible for an indirect influence, but on
average, they do not force people into homosexuality. This conclusion has
been well known in the scientific community for a few decades but has not
reached the general public. Indeed, the public increasingly believes the
opposite.

"Homosexuality Is Not Hardwired," Concludes Dr. Francis S. Collins, Head Of
The Human Genome Project

The study by Bailey and Pillard,
published in 1991, found that when one twin is homosexual, the number of
times the other twin is also homosexual occurs more often than the general
rates of homosexuality in society. The media reported this as proof that
homosexuality is genetic. But the researches themselves clearly stated that
this study did not prove that homosexuality was solely caused by something
genetic. Interestingly, this study also looked at the rest of the family and
found that the rate of homosexuality among the rest of the family, including
adopted brothers was 200-300% more frequent than the general rate in
society. And so the data leads to the conclusion that something is causing
homosexuality to occur more frequently in the families that were studied but
that it can not be genetics because the increase even occurs in adopted
brothers who do not share any genes at all with the rest of the family.

I hope you're not against scientific research too!
