Once again, science triumphs over religion.
WASHINGTON - Gay men's brains respond differently from those of heterosexual males when exposed to a sexual stimulus, researchers have found. The homosexual men's brains responded more like those of women when the men sniffed a chemical from the male hormone testosterone.
Read all about it here. I have nothing witty or charming to add to the piece. And I don't need to point out all the gay-bashing, right-wing fundamentalist bullshit that goes around the issue.
But, I am glad that, once more, we're finding biological differences between gays and straights. Maybe, if we're lucky, some day the Christian Taliban will accept them as people who were born the way they were born.
Of course, I'm a cynical bastard and don't think it'll happen in my lifetime. But, I think enough of the center will eventually accept gays and lesbians to the point of true equality. And the American Taliban can retreat back to the obscurity they deserve.
