(Notice all the fire goin on the in the gay man and straight woman brain in the L amygdala...but then, even when the straight woman simmas down, the gay man brain is still on fire - I betchu that is a fierce tranny brain in this scan) Well DUH! I think I could have been paid to tell the scientist that instead of wasting money with research and doin brain scans and stuff. I mean, why do you think most women (unless they are rednecks, southern bible thumpers, or just plain ignorant) have at least one gay male friend or better yet, a Gay BFF? It is because gay men and straight women are girlfriends! They can talk all day about hot men, shopping, which shoes to wear to the party that night, that stupid bitch that office that you are two seconds from stabbing in the eye with your pencil, and your boyfriend dramas. They can give you advice on everything from lipgloss to oral sex...how can you not have one?! Anyhooo....a recent study has been done that says that 'Gay Brains are Structured Like Those of the Opposite Sex'. So this means that Lezzies have straight man brains, which again, makes perfect sense. "Striking similarities between the brains of gay men and straight women have been discovered by neuroscientists, offering fresh evidence that sexual orientation is hardwired into our neural circuitry. Scans reveal homosexual men and heterosexual women have symmetrical brains, with the right and left hemispheres almost exactly the same size. Conversely, lesbians and straight men have asymmetrical brains, with the right hemisphere significantly larger than the left. Scientists at the prestigious Stockholm Brain Institute in Sweden also found certain brain circuits linked to emotional responses were the same in gay men and straight women. The study, led by the neurobiologist Ivanka Savic, builds on previous research that has identified differences in spatial and verbal abilities related to sex and sexual orientation. Tests have found gay men and straight women fare better at certain language tasks, while heterosexual men and lesbians tend to have better spatial awareness. Savic and her colleague Per Linström took MRI brain scans of 90 volunteers who were divided into four groups of similar ages according to whether they were male, female, heterosexual or homosexual. The scans showed the right side of the brain in heterosexual men was typically 2% larger than the left. Lesbians showed a similar asymmetry, with the right hand side of the brain 1% larger than the left. Scans on homosexual men and heterosexual women revealed both sides of the brain were the same size. The results could explain a University of London study earlier this year that found gay men and straight women share a poor sense of direction compared with heterosexual men, and were more likely to navigate using landmarks alone. The right hand side of the brain dominates spatial capabilities, so may be slightly more developed in heterosexual men and lesbians. An earlier study by the same team found gay men and straight women outperformed lesbians and straight men at tasks designed to test verbal fluency." Which basically means, this is why you will get cussed the fluff out every which way from a female or a gay man but we can't tell you which way the bank is. I actually just bonded with a new gorgeous and most fabulous GF (How u doin, Lou!) over our GPSs! We both have no sense of direction what so ever and think the GPS (we both named ours -- his GPS lady has the British accent) is even better than staring at David Beckham in his draws...yum. The real fact of the matter is, this is why I absolutely believe that being gay (for the majority) is not a choice but has everything to do with biology and genetics. Men have been gay since evolution....how much you wanna bet there were gay cave men using rocks to manscape their unibrows? Gay people bring such fabulousness to the world -- altho I was watching an episode of Bridezilla (I hate to love that damn show) and this one Queen bitched out like no other. I would have knocked his damn block off and if I was his fiance I would have called that wedding off immed-jet-ly. Ain't no way in hell I'm marrying anybody that is going to get on the shower floor and cry because the wedding planner is late and then freak out because he wants to change plans the day before the wedding and then have a straight up bitch fit temper tantrum because he can't, and then lose his damn mind at the reception because the drinks he wanted to toast with were too cold (but at that point they were already married so wasn't shit that could be done about it then). Point is, How U Doin, to all my gays! But especially to my GBFF...I will givealilproof DA WUT? I said, I will givealilproof to the world that I loves you to pieces! Now go make sure your car ain't on fire. |
