The rults showed that straight men had asymmetric bras, wh the right hemisphere slightly larger – and the gay women also had this asymmetry. Gay men, meanwhile, had symmetril bras like those of straight women. They found that the patterns of nnectivy gay men matched those of straight women, and vice versa (see image, above right).

In straight women and gay men, the nnectns were maly to regns of the bra that manift fear as tense anxiety. 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.
“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 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.
WHAT THE GAY BRA LOOKS LIKE
The rearchers ed MRIs to terme the volume and shap of the bras of 90 volunteers—25 straight and 20 gay members of each sex.
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. In ntrast, they found that women and gay men had symmetril cerebms. 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.
GAY ‘BRA DRA’
What mak people gay?
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.
BRAS OF GAY PEOPLE REMBLE THOSE OF STRAIGHT PEOPLE OF OPPOSE SEX
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.
"The big qutn has always been, if the bras of gay men are different, or femized, as earlier rearch suggts, " says Dr.
ON THE GAY ‘BRA DRA’
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.
Both gay and straight men, for example, tend to prefer younger partners, ntrast to women, who gravate toward olr partners. "So I expect that some regns of the bra will rema mascule even gay men, " says Vila. Gay people who want a reer fields like the entertament bs or puter-related fields – they have to go elsewhere.
