Alas, in these days of the internet, failed prediction retrieval is often only a click or two away.   The last several years... Continue Reading

The logic of these two results—low heritability and high polygenicity—clearly demonstrate that the dominant cultural narrative about sexual orientation—which sees homosexual persons as a distinctly bounded biological class of people who were “born that way”—simply cannot be true.   A new study adds to a growing body of evidence demonstrating that the dominant narrative about...
