GAY STEREOTYP: ARE THEY TE?
An open letter to my fellow whe gay cis men: there should be no "returng to normal" after this. * why are gays promiscuous *
Rearchers repeatedly fd that homosexual men are most attracted to men their late teens and early twenti, prrizg looks over stat.
GAY CULTURE HAS GROWN TOXIC WH UNCHECKED PRIVILEGE. IT'S TIME FOR TO RET
* why are gays promiscuous *
Although neher of our fantasi was fulfilled by the enunter, we end up havg an tertg nversatn about homosexualy, a topic the fellow was studyg graduate school, wh an obv personal vtment, and the topic of a paper I’d wrten my unrgraduate psychology class. At the time, the psychologil acunts of homosexualy’s foced on the relatnships between homosexual men and their parents, pecially their mothers. For one thg, homosexualy shows a reasonably high herabily—if you are homosexual, and you have a tw brother, there is a very good chance he is homosexual as well.
The first odd thg about homosexualy is the fact that has such high herabily—how n a proclivy toward havg non-reproductive sex be passed on geilly?
THE PLACE OF PROMISCUY GAY CULTURE
Another odd thg about homosexualy is the shape of homosexual men’s preferenc: Although gay men share women’s attractn to humans wh penis, that’s about as far as the siary go. But studi by Michael Bailey, my own lleagu, and other rearchers repeatedly fd that homosexual men are most attracted to men their late teens and early twenti, and they don’t re much about stat, stead prrizg physil attractivens.
All this suggts that the old “social learng” theori don’t apply well to homosexual preferenc—if so, gay guys would learn om media and the social environment what mak for an attractive man, and go after the same featur that women fd attractive.
