STUDY SAYS BRAS OF GAY MEN AND WOMEN ARE SIAR

It volv two betiful (possibly gay, pends how you look at ) young man an all boys private school England, an odd obssn and murr. Full of cliché, has the vibe of an A-level film project, or a 2 part drama for Relg nnectns, Knights Templars, implied/elud homo-eroticism, and the oh so obv twist s as if somebody got a ltle over exced when creatg/wrg this.

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

For at least 20 years, nroscientists have been tryg to disver whether there are specific anatomil differenc between heterosexual and homosexual men and women.

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE GAY

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.

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.

WHAT DO IT MEAN TO BE A GAY MAN?

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. 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. 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.

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.

GAY BRAS STCTURED LIKE THOSE OF THE OPPOSE SEX

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.
