And we know there are plenty of women who are straight in one part of their lives and later they fall in love with a woman and now they feel like they're gay, right?
So females, women are more plastic in terms of their sexual longings and sexual orientation.
than men are.
I'll be a little more specific.
I think it's among males where sometimes, for many males, not all, there's an aversive idea that the idea of having sex with the same-sex partner is aversive.
Of course, context matters, right?
There's same-sex happening in prisons all the time when, you know, if the conditions are enough.
And I don't know where that aversive component came from.
It could be that our society, maybe it's all,
socially inculcated, you know, again, before we're aware of it at all.
But I think there's also at least the possibility that there's a biological component to it, and I think that's what Chuck was getting at, in that here's this difference in the brain.
He doesn't know when the difference happened in the preoptic areas, but it seems to correlate with this idea that maybe these gay rams, no, they're not interested.
and having sex with her.
It's aversive to them.
It's aversive, yeah.
There's no other way to, I can't, I don't know any other way to explain how they choose never to, never once mount a female.
And this makes you old fashioned because that's not the world.
I mean, our world seems to be hurtling towards this world of snippets.
To me, that would explain these differences, these sex differences in who people are willing to have sex with.
Your hypothesis fits the data.
