REVIEWER:(4) Minor issue: The author assumes that before doing the choice of their sexual orientation (page 4, first paragraph) all individuals are in the middle of Kinsey's scale. I:I did not claim that anywhere in the place mentioned -- and nowhere else! I just focussed on some individuals who...

REVIEWER:If I am right, then the payoff matrix proposed by the author should just work once but can not tell us anything about the evolution and maintenance of homosexuality in the long run.I:Yes, I do not wish to claim more and be so pretentious as to play a prophet here about homosexuality and...

MY REPLYThere is no "logical" flaw. The reviewer simply misunderstood the use of "this or that action makes it more probable that....":Nowhere did I, by necessity, claim that the agent, by choosing some action, changes the past or, more precisely, the existence/presence of the genetic factor...

REVIEWER:Reviewer #1: I recommend rejecting this paper because of the existence of three major flaws: one logical and two technical. While I think, the topic could be of interest, I think it is very badly formulated in this paper.(1) The logical flaw concerns the justification of the paper as...
