Whether cause or effect, this still seems to indicate that it's biological, rather than the choice that so many people seem to think it is.

Of course, standard disclaimers about scientific repeatability apply.

Well, I read the researcher as allowing that a person might make a choice, and then the biological change might follow.

I know of at least one other straight guy to comment on this -- see

So you're not totally alone. :)
