WHAT ARE SOME INDIVIDUALS GAY WHILE OTHERS ARE NOT?
Since sexual orientation is a gendered trait, interpretation that sexual orientation is a part of gender, current research on the development of sexual orientation is primarily focused on prenatal sex hormones. Based on animal studies, it is likely that the critical period for sex hormones in humans is pre-birth. Prenatal sex hormones are found to affect gender and gendered traits, so it is safe to assume it also influences sexual orientation.
While such studies contain been conducted in animals, it is unethical to inject sex hormones into human fetuses in the uterus. So how do we know that sex hormones influence gender and sexual orientation in humans? Researchers study conditions that mimic the studies in conducted in rats. One such condition, called Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) which is a disorder that causes the adrenal gland to secrete excess testosterone during prenatal development in pregnant women. Children of these women with CAH are significantly more likely to be homosexual compared to the children of women without this condition.
Since sexual orientation is one aspect of gender, it can be assumed that human sexu

This article was initially published in the Winter 2007 edition of the OCD Newsletter.
OCD, as we know, is largely about experiencing drastic and unrelenting mistrust. It can bring about you to mistrust even the most basic things about yourself – even your sexual orientation. A 1998 investigate published in the Journal of Sex Research found that among a community of 171 college students, 84% reported the occurrence of sexual intrusive thoughts (Byers, et al. 1998). In instruct to have doubts about one’s sexual identity, a sufferer need not ever have had a homo- or heterosexual experience, or any type of sexual experience at all. I have observed this symptom in young children, adolescents, and adults as skillfully. Interestingly Swedo, et al., 1989, establish that approximately 4% of children with OCD experience obsessions concerned with forbidden aggressive or perverse sexual thoughts.
Although doubts about one’s possess sexual identity might seem pretty straightforward as a symptom, there are actually a number of variations. The most obvious form is where a sufferer experiences the reflection that they might be of a different sexual orientation than they formerly believed. If the su
Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material society, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I dwell in this blog. You might say I own multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of truth, like a ghost in the machine.
I have some human assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.
If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t brain talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they hold been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are veiled, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.

Hey
Sexuality is a scary thing, and something that is sometimes difficult to get your head around! The important thing is that you don’t need to label things, and it’s often more fluid then what people often think.
Some people like men, some people like women and some people like everyone. There might be days where you feel more attracted t
