Great story Ronyx. Xrgt

Incredible story, incredible author. Having lived through the late 50’s - early 60’s not only was his story an incredible tale, but it was period perfect. Nothing out of time-frame. A captivating read, a real page turner. I look forward to the rest of his stories.

Ronyx has in this story, subliminally introduced you to the cause of gayness and the many nefarious behaviors of the uninformed (often expressed by the young - but as Ronyx shows, by all ages). I wish I had Ronyx's talent with language to weave such a compelling story. If only the un-informed straights would read it. Ronyx wove his story, with one identical twin character being gay, and the other twin being straight. In the mid-'90's a study of gay identical twins showed thirty-eight pairs of monozygotic (identical) twins (34 male pairs and 4 female pairs) were found to have a concordance rate of 65.8% for homosexual orientation. One twin straight with the other homosexual was found in only 34% of the pairs. Yet they came from the same egg and sperm, shared the same genes, womb and gestation together. This proved there was no total genetic cause to gayness - or all the pairs would have been gay. However, the study also showed in fraternal (dizygotic) twins 30% of both twins were gay. This latter alerted the greater scientific community to something going on during gestation that was not totally genetic caused, but may indeed influence something in an offspring's genetics. Sure enough it was found there was an epigenetic cause for gayness and the science field by that name and term became known. Orientation, as it turns out, begins to be influenced in about week 9 of gestation. Hormonal concentrations of the female appear to be involved in influencing the developing embryo. Epigenics as a field has exploded since those days so you'll have to Google it to learn more about it. As all gays know, we made no choice about our preference towards whom we were attracted. Nor were we influenced by another to have a same-sex attraction. It was and is the straight world that is badly confused. The scientific community realized if this new epigenetics were 'responsible' for the cause of gayness, then homosexuality should indeed be found in other animals in addition to humans too. When explored, sure enough, it has been observed and found in some birds, in African lions, in monkeys, in dolphins, even 8% of sheep Rams are totally gay, pairing with and having sex exclusively only with other rams! Thank you Ronyx to helping the rest of us realize being gay is not a choice! -- Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.~good ol' western advice

I’ve been reading Ronyx’s stories for some years. This is probably one of his best works. It begins by drawing the reader deeply into the hurt his main character felt from his loss and carries the reader through the main character’s emotional healing. All through those tumultuous teen years. Splendid story. Xrgt
