THE GAY SCIENCE ANALYSIS

" To be sure, the philosophy is absolutely horrifyg to anyone who actually unrstands what exactly Nietzsche means by The Gay Science's famo proclamatn "God is ad.

THERE IS NO ‘GAY GENE.’ THERE IS NO ‘STRAIGHT GENE.’ SEXUALY IS JT PLEX, STUDY NFIRMS

Humans have tried to unrstand human sexualy for centuri — and geics rearchers joed the ay the early 1990s after a seri of studi on tws suggted homosexualy ran fai.

“As a teenager tryg to unrstand myself and unrstand my sexualy, I looked at the ter for “the gay gene” and obvly me across Xq28, ” said Fah Sathirapongsasuti, a study -thor and senr scientist at 23andMe, which he joked once led him to believe he hered his gayns om his mother. The rearchers had members of the same-sex muny review the study’s sign and language, and they adm that their termology and fns for gay, lbian and heterosexual do not reflect the full nature of the sexualy ntuum.

STUDY SAYS BRAS OF GAY MEN AND WOMEN ARE SIAR

“[Our study] unrsr an important role for the environment shapg human sexual behavr and perhaps most importantly there is no sgle gay gene but rather the ntributn of many small geic effects sttered across the genome, ” Neale said. 32 pag • 1 hour readFriedrich NietzscheNonfictn | Book | Adult | Published 1882A morn alternative to SparkNot and CliffsNot, SuperSummary offers high-qualy Study Guis that feature tailed chapter summari and analysis of major them, characters, quot, and say topics.Summary and Study GuiOverviewThe Gay Science is a book of poems and llectn of 383 aphorisms five sectns that terrogat the origs of the history of knowledge.

GAY BRAS STCTURED LIKE THOSE OF THE OPPOSE SEX

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.

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.

Whout beg aware of , most people n accurately intify gay men by face aloneAlthough I've always wanted this particular superhuman power, I've never been very good at tectg other men's sexual orientatn.

THE GAY SCIENCE SUMMARY

In an ial experiment, rearchers Nicholas Rule and Nali Ambady om Tufts Universy pesed onle datg s and refully selected 45 straight male fac and 45 gay male fac.

The 90 fac were then shown to 90 participants random orr, who were asked simply to judge the target's "probable sexual orientatn" (gay or straight) by prsg a button.

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

"Th, " the thors wrote, "by g photos of gay and straight dividuals that they themselv did not post, we were able to remove the fluence of self-prentatn and much of the potential selectn bias that may be prent photos om personal advertisements. And even wh the more strgent ntrols, the participants were able to intify the gay fac at levels greater than chance—aga even on those trials where the fac were flickered on the screen for a mere 50 lisends. For example, when shown only the eye regn ("whout brows and cropped to the outer nthi so that not even "crow's-feet" were visible"), perceivers were amazgly still able to accurately intify a man as beg gay.

WHAT IS SCIENCE THE 'GAY SCIENCE'?

I was cur enough about Rule's fdgs to look up "gay face" the Urban Dictnary, a popular Web se that offers rmal, er-ntributed fns of everyday (often crass) saygs. "A man, ually homosexual, wh a distctly effete facial stcture wh some very specific featur; a strong jawle [sic] that lacks promence, space between the ey that rell people wh down syndrome [sic], and a slopg, long forehead. Now, that one's rather silly and sensatnalized—even polilly spect—and there's certaly no scientific evince support of the claims about the "mongoloid" featur of homosexual men's fac.

The imag show the amygdala heterosexual men and women (labeled HeM and HeW) and homosexual and women (labeled HoM and HoW)(Image: Natnal Amy of Scienc, PNAS). Prev studi have also shown differenc bra archecture and activy between gay and straight people, but most relied on people’s rpons to sexualy driven cu that uld have been learned, such as ratg the attractivens of male or female fac. “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. The volum of four cell groups this regn [terstial nuclei of the anterr hypothalam (INAH) 1, 2, 3, and 4] were measured postmortem tissue om three subject groups: women, men who were prumed to be heterosexual, and homosexual men.

In theory, humans and other animals who are exclively attracted to others of the same sex should be unlikely to produce many blogil children, so any gen that predispose people to homosexualy would rarely be passed on to future generatns. Yet same-sex attractn is wispread humans, and rearch suggts that is partly a study of data om hundreds of thoands of people, rearchers have now intified geic patterns that uld be associated wh homosexual behavur, and showed how the might also help people to fd different-sex mat, and reproduce. The thors say their fdgs, published on 23 Augt Nature Human Behavur1, uld help to expla why gen that predispose people to homosexualy ntue to be passed down.
