It's been seen over and over.

I mean, it's really one of the rock-solid findings in human sexuality.

So the way to emphasize the difference is if a baby boy is born today, if he has no older brothers, his odds of being gay when he grows up is about 2%, right?

Pretty low.

But if he had one older brother, his odds go up by a third.

Okay, 2.6.

And if he has two older brothers, they go up a third again.

All right, now we're at 3.5.

It turns out you got to have like a dozen older brothers just to have a 50-50 chance.

Thank you.

I'm delighted to be here.

Very exciting.

I know.

How can that be possible when I feel like, you know, just saw you a few days ago, but then... Well, you look great.

You look the same, so we can talk longevity protocols at the end, but... I'm trying to have a blonde look in my hair, apparently, so...

We need to step back a little bit for the context.

One thing that your listeners might not know is, you know, in the year 2000, there was still a lot of people who regarded –

same-sex orientation as a choice, a lifestyle choice.

That was the political combination of words that meant you could disapprove of people because they were attracted to the same sex.

Of course, I'm at Berkeley.
