Or, according to a new study, it’s all in your brain.
Lesbians’ brains react differently to sex hormones than those of heterosexual women.
An earlier study of gay men also showed their brain response was different from straight men — an even stronger difference than has now been found in lesbians.
Lesbians’ brains reacted somewhat, though not completely, […]
What’s next? A lockdown on lube?
This is another one that got a laugh out of me when it landed in my inbox this morning. Maybe that’s because it reads like something right out of a sitcom. (In fact, didn’t I see something like this on a Golden Girls rerun?) Apparently, if you wanna practice safe(r) […]
Given my interest in the whole subject of gender, and how often I’ve written about it here, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that I picked up a copy of Norah Vincent’s Self-Made Man : One Woman’s Journey into Manhood and Back almost as soon as it was published. It caught my eye in Borders […]
Not that there was ever any doubt, but once I ran across the quiz over at Scientific American Mind, I took it as an opportunity to just check in. I was led to the quiz by a post at the Gay News Blog about the SIAMind article “Do Gays Hae […]
In the same week that Silvia Johnson’s 30 year sentence for giving drugs and alcohol to teenage boys and having sex with them makes news, we now have the story of a 37 year old “cool mom” and her involvement with a 15-year-old. However, Lisa Lynette Clark does Silvia Johnson one better. She married her […]
I can’t remember if I blogged about Silvia Johnson — the 41 year old woman whose desire to be the “cool mom” lead her to host sex parties with teenage boys — though I did write a post about protecting kids from adult sexual predators. Well, today I read that Ms. Johnson — who was […]

I come to bury the Alpha Males, not to praise them. Maybe that’s because I was never one of them. Not the strongest. Not the fastest. Not the bravest. Not the loudest. Leader of the pack? More like the runt of the litter. Decisive? Undeniably, not. Resolute?I was the boy with the big brown […]
I’ve blogged previously about the murder of Rashawn Brazell, a 19-year-old gay man in New York City, and the special role that black gay bloggers — especially those in New York — have played in keeping the story alive and drawing media attention to his murder. I was reminded, upon visiting Keith Boykin’s blog, that […]
I’ve been trying to decide how to respond to this Boston Globe article about what makes people gay. For some reason, the whole notion of finding the "cause" of homosexuality has always made me nervous, because to me it implies a "cure" lies somewhere — which implies that there’s something wrong or disordered about it.

Well, not Hassan Feiraz, who’s trapped in Baghdad’s burgeoning child sex trade.
Hassan Feiraz, a 16-year-old boy, has started a desperate new life since being forced into the sex trade in Baghdad, joining a growing number of adolescents soliciting in Iraq under the threat of street gangs or the force of poverty.
"Every day I […]
Warning: This is one of those stories that will make you spew coffee (or the morning beverage of your choice) all over your monitor. So, whatever you’re drinking, put it down for a minute.
I blogged earlier about Paul Hackett’s race for Ohio’s 2nd district congressional seat. (Note, the fundraising button it still up there. If […]
