9 Biology Of Sexual Orientation
Part 9 of "Science & Sexuality." What determines sexual orientation? Is it learned or inborn? How does culture affect the expression and treatment of sexually different people?
This erudite discussion about the biology of sexual orientation, and particularly the portion about Samoa, is revealing and thought-provoking. The educational value here is undeniable, and should be an eye-opener for those in this society who still regard gay men and women as second-class citizens - or worse. This is the salient point of my recently released biographical novel, Broken Saint. It is based on my forty-year friendship with a gay man, and chronicles his internal and external struggle for acceptance. You can learn more about the book at www.eloquentbooks.com/BrokenSaint.html.
