GREG COCHRAN’S “GAY GERM” HYPOTHIS – AN EXERCISE THE POWER OF GERMS
In this post, I will review Gregory Cochran's "gay germ" hypothis. I wanted to make an x of Cochran's posts om his and Henry Harpendg's blog Wt Hunter that discs . The posts don't seem to all show up unr the "Homosexualy" tegory there, and I wanted lks to them to be all one place.… * cochran gay germ *
The posts don’t seem to all show up unr the “Homosexualy” tegory there, and I wanted lks to them to be all one place. The “gay germ” hypothis is very much Cochran’s, not me (I haven’t ntributed anythg to , except, perhaps, the name).
THE GAY "GERM" HYPOTHIS

G., high rate of disrdance between intil tws, the evolutnary maladaptivens of obligate male homosexualy and the paradox of how uld have bee so mon, how pathogens n affect bra functn).

Not that unlike afflictns that likely are ed by geic load, there don’t seem to be creased cince of homosexualy the children of olr fathers.

GAY GERM CENSORSHIP
Appropriately tled, Cochran v discsn on the social and scientific nsequenc of nailg down the blogil e of homosexualy – any e, regardls if that turned out to be the pathogen as he spects. (As we’ve seen, public discsn of any blogil termant of homosexualy will have nsequenc, and as I’ve discsed, not necsarily good on.

Not the ubiquo impact of gen, but the often highly direct nature of this impact, which may expla the low but non-zero herabily of homosexualy.
Now, I hontly shouldn’t even have to say this, but let me state clearly that I have nothg agast gays, I actually do have several gay iends. Que often (not all the time, but more than a few tim), when I discs Cochran’s hypothis, I’m acced of beg homophobic. This is pecially tertg nsirg that one of the biggt proponents of the gay germ hypothis, “misdreav” (whose lorful mentary was featured my prev post – and whose ments over at Wt Hunter have add valuable sight to the gay germ mol) is himself gay.
But biggt of all is that the gay germ mol is suggtive of the poorly rearched role that pathogens n have some many other areas, both illns and behavrs.

All the nsired, is rather shameful that rearchers the human scienc don’t take more of a ser tert the “gay germ” hypothis (and pathogenic mols general). Objectn om non-scientists is somewhat unrstandable; no one (other than homophob) wants to believe that gays are lerally “diseased”, spe the fact that this is likely te. How patently ridiculo is that ser thkers uld really believe at this pot that any other explanatn for male homosexualy is more likely.
