But Joseph, who schled his birthday party to ci wh the gig, appeared to be ncerned that G-A-Y’s tramark atmosphere, a mp nightlife funworld that provis a safe place for gay people to go out, would be affected by the flux of One Directn’s predomantly young straight female fan said on Twter on Saturday: “My birthday wish is for ltle girls to realise that G-A-Y is a lbian and gay club so there’s only one directn and that’s no directn for them”. But Joseph’s tweets raise a thorny issue for gay venu and their is a popular and admired personaly wh the gay muny, known for his ongog charable efforts.

ONE DIRECTN’S LIAM PAYNE OPENS UP ABOUT BOOZE, GAY MOURS

A small nstellatn of rearchers is specifilly analyzg the tras and characteristics that, though more pronounced some than others, not only make gay but also make appear gay. But some rearchers have noted that gay men are likely to have fger-length rats more le wh those of straight women, and a study of self-scribed “butch” lbians showed signifintly masculized rats. What is there Ruf Wawright’s “unhibed, yearng, ugly-ducklg voice, ” as the Los Angel Tim wrote a few weeks ago, that we regnize as uniquely gay?

“The are all part and parcel of the ia that beg gay is different—that we are different animals to some extent, ” says Simon LeVay, the Brish-born nroscientist who has dited himself to studyg the issu.

CHIGO PRI PARA 2022: MAP, TRANSPORTATN TAILS AND A BRIEF HISTORY OF GAY RIGHTS CHIGO

Richard Lippa, a psychologist om California State Universy at Fullerton, is one of the leadg taloguers of the many ways which gay people are different. I ught up wh him a few weeks ago at a booth at the Long Beach Pri Ftival Southern California, where he was rearchg another hypothis—that the hair-whorl patterns on gay heads are more likely to go unterclockwise. Acrdg to this rearch, for stance, gay men, like straight women, have an creased nsy of fgerprt ridg on the thumb and the pkie of the left hand; and overall their arms, legs, and hands are smaller relative to stature (among wh but not blacks).

One volv mentally rotatg a 3-D object, somethg mal tend to do better than femal—except gay men sre more like straight women and lbians functn more like straight men. From the fdgs, might be temptg to nclu that lbians are universally masculized and gay men are somehow femized—the classic “versn mol” of homosexualy advanced by Frd.

ENOLA GAY

The stereotyp—that lbians tend to m to relatnships early and have ltle tert sual sex; that gay men have more sexual partners than their unterparts—turn out to be te. The measurements, should be noted, were self-reported and perhaps volve reportg bias, but no one has done a study vtigatg whether gay men are more prone to exaggeratg their assets, so, well, draw your own nclns. Instead of picturg genr and orientatn along a le, wh straight men and women on eher end and gay people the middle, he suggts, a matrix might be a more accurate way to map the possibili.

Some of this work has been rid as morn-day phrenology, and obvly posssg one tra or another—a unterclockwise hair whorl here, an elongated rg fger there—don’t necsarily make a person gay or straight. And the cumulative fdgs support the belief now wily held the scientific muny that sexual orientatn—perhaps along wh the characteristics we typilly associate wh gayns—is blogil. Bee many of the newly intified “gay” tras and characteristics are known to be fluenced utero, rearchers thk they may be narrowg on when gayns is set—and intifyg s possible triggers.

THE SCIENCE OF GAYDAR

We know om a strg of surveys that any fay, the send-born son is 33 percent more likely than the first to be gay, and the third is 33 percent more likely than the send, and so on, as though there is some sort of “maternal memory, ” siar to the way antibodi are memori of an fectn. But the thst of the velopg fdgs puts activists a bd and brgs gay rights to a major crossroads, perhaps s most signifint sce the Amerin Psychiatric Associatn voted to classify homosexualy as a disease 1973. Late last year, Marta Navratilova joed activists om PETA to speak out agast an experiment that sought to tentnally turn sheep gay ( failed, but another experiment succsfully turned ferrets to homosexuals, and the sexual orientatns of u fli have been swched laboratori).

At the dawn of gay polics a half-century ago, the ernment treated gay people as a menace to natnal secury, and much of the public, kept om any ordary pictns of gay life, lived terror of enunterg one of . ) Back then, many psychiatrists treated homosexualy wh shock therapy, tentn, or a md-twistg terventn lled “aversn therapy”—a practice that was still vogue the late seventi, when a lumpy-faced psychiatrist put me through a regimen of starg at Playboy centerfolds. He had noticed that all rearch on homosexuals looked at men and women who were imprisoned or stutnalized, thereby advancg the belief that homosexuals were abnormal.

Over the next two s, she did jt that, provg that none of the known psychologil screens uld tect a healthy gay person—that there was no clil pathology to sexual orientatn. Of necsy, rearch at the time was foced on monstratg how unremarkable gay men and lbians are: distguishable on all personaly ventori, equally good at all jobs, benign as parents, unthreateng as neighbors, and so on. Thereafter, the field of sexual-orientatn rearch fell dormant until 1991, when Simon LeVay nducted the very first study of homosexual blogil uniquens.

“Jt like a lot of gay people who’d been directly affected by the epimic, I felt a sire to do somethg more relevant to my inty as a gay man, ” says LeVay. If LeVay’s rearch suggted that blogy—not environment, vice, or sfulns—was likely rponsible for male homosexualy, the geicist Dean Hamer, an thor and molecular blogist at the Natnal Instut of Health, hoped to ppot the exact blogil mechanism rponsible. He snned gene groups pairs of gay siblgs lookg for s where the relativ had hered the same DNA more equently than would be expected on the basis of chance.

In 1993, he loted a regn the human genome, lled Xq28, that appeared to be associated wh gayns, a fdg that has generated some ntroversy among rearchers who have not fully nfirmed the rults. In poll after poll, of the one third of Amerins who believe homosexualy is socially fluenced, other words “a choice, ” about 70 percent thk beg gay is “not acceptable. ” But Stanford blogy profsor Joan Roughgarn pots out her book Evolutn’s Rabow that most homosexual activy the animal kgdom serv a fundamentally social purpose.

Another study says that female relativ of gay men may have more children; perhaps the very thg that mak their brothers and sons gay mak them more fertile, an ial suatn wh extra babysters on hand.

Bailey stops short of sayg that lbianism is a myth (although he has notorly clared that te male bisexualy don’t exist and dismissed many transgenr people as peculiar sexual fetishists, drawg lastg enmy om gay and trans groups). What’s beg classified as fundamentally gay is nothg more than cultural signals that vary so much om one part of the world to another that they’re worthls as clu to anythg. When I traveled through Nigeria a few years ago, I was unable after nearly a month to say wh any nvictn that I had enuntered any gay people along my way.
