New study about the second-to-fourth digit ratio

It is a fascinating book about the biological and psychological studies on homosexuality. Author’s view on sexual orientation is based on modern neuroscience and, in my opinion, is not biased by political agenda.

I totally recommend to everyone who is interested in sexual orientation research to read this book.

I am reading this book now with great pleasure.

Where is the book?

Although some critics could argue that the author of these site and book has affiliations with NARTH, but i can't consider him as religious bigot, moreover the book is based on his scientific publications in scientific journals, for instance An antiboy antibody? Re-examination of the maternal immune hypothesis. - PubMed - NCBI

Apparently, I also treat with respect and attention the author of this book, this direction. Although I myself go on a different path.

I gave a rapid look at the book but I cannot believe there is so much shift toward heterosexual attra tion during adult age... is the author so reliable?
I believe in kirill theory about neuroplasticy of the brain (why is this not considered in paraphilias and homosexuality?).
Do you know some people that is became more heterosexual with some psychoterapy? I don t know anyone...

I agree! I'm gay and I know that no one has become heterosexual as a result of psychotherapy, although even in modern history there have been many attempts to "convert" gays.

I do not trust the authors affiliated with NARTH.

Sorry for the errors, I translate Google Translator.

You could check references in the book. I checked his claims, in general they are right, but he was not very exact, but it is ular science book, not strictly scientific, so some exaggeration could be tolerated, but readers should remain critical. Whitehead also mentioned neuroplasticity, but he didn’t elaborate this topic discussing mechanism of neuroplasticiy. In fact he made only few references on the literature about this topic quoting Norman Doidge’s book “The brain that changes itself”. Norman in chapter about sexuality described sadomasochism in details and made very interesting theoretical conjectures about the etiology of this condition: fusion of different brain systems.
