STUDY SAYS BRAS OF GAY MEN AND WOMEN ARE SIAR

Scientists at the Stockholm Bra Instute Swen report the Proceedgs of the Natnal Amy of Scienc USA that gay men and straight women share siar tras—most notably the size of their bras and the activy of the amygdala—an area of the bra tied to emotn, anxiety and aggrsn. Prev studi have examed bra differenc between gay and straight people on the basis of their rpons to var tasks, such as ratg the attractivens of other people. They found that the straight men and gay women had asymmetril bras; that is, the cerebm (the largt part of the bra, which is rponsible for thought, sensory procsg, movement and planng) was larger on the right hemisphere of the bra than on the left.

BRAS OF GAY PEOPLE REMBLE THOSE OF STRAIGHT PEOPLE OF OPPOSE SEX

They found that gay men and women, the blood flowed to areas volved fear and anxiety, whereas straight men and lbians tend to flow to pockets lked to aggrsn. For at least 20 years, nroscientists have been tryg to disver whether there are specific anatomil differenc between heterosexual and homosexual men and women.

An early post-mortem study found that a small regn of the anterr hypothalam was smaller homosexual men than heterosexual men, and no different om heterosexual women.

Overall, the specific bra regns homosexual mal tend to be siar to heterosexual women (more female‐typil), while the same bra regns homosexual women tend to be siar to heterosexual men (more male‐typil). Many of the early imagg studi were limed by small sample siz and did not clu female, both heterosexual and homosexual, parison groups.

GAY BRAS STCTURED LIKE THOSE OF THE OPPOSE SEX

Essentially, the differenc bra anatomy that distguish heterosexual mal and femal were prent, however they were ls pronounced when parg male and female homosexuals. The bra regn that showed the most nsistent sexual orientatn‐related differenc both male and female homosexuals was the lre sulc. Geic factors that are associated wh variatns some rtil stctur showed oppose effects on rtil volume male vers female homosexuals who reported same-sex sexual behavrs.

In other words, the bra regns of tert this study beme larger homosexual femal and smaller homosexual mal, as pared to their heterosexual unterparts. ScienceNot Exactly Rocket ScienceThe differenc between heterosexual and homosexual people are as much the subject of fascatg science as they are a source of social bate. A new study adds new weight to this evince by g bra-snng technology to look at the differenc between the bras of gay and straight people.

WHAT THE GAY BRA LOOKS LIKE

Their imag show that the bras of gay people, certa featur cludg symmetry and nnectns to the bra’s emotnal centre are more closely matched to the bras of straight people om the oppose sex. SymmetryUsg magic ronance imagg (MRI), Savic and Ldstrom showed that the bra’s two halv are almost exactly the same size straight women and gay men. For example, parts of the bra volved reward and emotn are more strongly activated when straight men and lbian women look at female fac, and when straight women and gay men see male fac.

But attractive fac and enticg pheromon are both related to sex, and rpons to them uld be learned over Savic’s and Ldstrom’s new study shows that the differenc extend to fundamental aspects of the bra that aren’t directly lked to sex or behavur, and that are probably fixed om ia that straight men have more asymmetril bras than gay men fs wh prev rearch.

They also tend to outperform gay men and straight women tts of spatial awarens, where succs pends on a part of the bra – the parietal rtex – which is ually larger men than women. From prev studi, we know that the nnectns ually lk to different areas the bras of men and women, and sprout om different hemispher -the right men, and the left was the pattern that Savic and Ldstrom saw the straight volunteers om their study, but the homosexuals showed the reverse pattern.

BRAS DIFFERENT GAY, STRAIGHT PEOPLE

For example, the amygdalas of gay men had more mon wh those of straight women – the two halv were well-nnected, they had more nrons projectg om the left half (as opposed to the right straight men) and the nrons nnected to the same parts of the bra that those of straight women nnectns provi some tantalisg hts about how gay and straight people differ their behavur. Certaly, gay men, social stigma is an equally likely explanatn for higher rat of ’s very likely that the relative size of the bra’s two halv are set very early velopment.

In animals, homosexualy femal is often attributed to an overabundance of male hormon – androgens – the womb, while male homosexualy rults om a lack of the.

A GAY MAN’S BRA LOOKS A LOT LIKE A STRAIGHT WOMAN’S BRA

The sns reveal that gay people, key stctur of the bra erng emotn, mood, anxiety and aggrsivens remble those straight people of the oppose sex. Prev studi have also shown differenc bra archecture and activy between gay and straight people, but most relied on people’s rpons to sexualy driven cu that uld have been learned, such as ratg the attractivens of male or female fac. First they ed MRI sns to fd out the overall volume and shap of bras a group of 90 volunteers nsistg of 25 heterosexuals and 20 homosexuals of each genr.

The rults showed that straight men had asymmetric bras, wh the right hemisphere slightly larger – and the gay women also had this asymmetry.

GAY MALE BRAS AND HOW THEY ONCE HELPED EVERYONE SURVIVE.

They found that the patterns of nnectivy gay men matched those of straight women, and vice versa (see image, above right). Gay men have higher rat of prsn too, she says, but ’s difficult to know whether this is down to blogy, homophobia or simply feelgs of beg “different”. “This study monstrat that homosexuals of both sex show strong cross-sex shifts bra symmetry, ” says Qazi Rahman, a leadg rearcher on sexual orientatn at Queen Mary llege, Universy of London, UK.

GAY, STRAIGHT MEN'S BRA RPONS DIFFER

“Paradoxilly, ’s more rmative to look at thgs that have no direct nnectn wh sexual orientatn, and that’s where this study sr, ” says Simon LeVay, a proment US thor who 1991 reported fdg differenc (pdf) a part of the bra lled the hypothalam between straight and gay men. Scientists at the Karolska Instute studied bra sns of 90 gay and straight men and women, and found that the size of the two symmetril halv of the bras of gay men more closely rembled those of straight women than they did straight men.

Sns of the bras of gay men the study, however, showed that their hemispher were relatively symmetril, like those of straight women, while the bras of homosexual women were asymmetril like those of straight men. The number of nerv nnectg the two sis of the bras of gay men were also more like the number heterosexual women than straight men. Ever sce 1991, when Simon LeVay first documented differenc the hypothalam of gay and straight men, rearchers have been stgglg to unrstand what the differenc to occur.

Eric Vila, profsor of human geics at Universy of California Los Angel, "then is jt limed to sexual preference or are there other regns that are genr atypil gay mal? For the first time, this study looks like there are regns of the bra not directly volved sexualy that seem to be femized gay mal. Vila, who studi the geic factors behd sexualy and sexual orientatn, not that may turn out that the bras of gay men posss only some 'femized' stctur, while retag some mascule on, and this is reflected how they act on their sexualy.
