Interesting that the article you quote David is in the Annual Review of
Psychology, which has no particular mindset or agenda. It appears that if
a person is seeking publication in the "Genetics" journal as well as
neurobiological journals, the goal is to find inborn neurological and

thickness of one's corpus callosum is associated with homosexuality?
Thank you.
