The Gay Male's Brain

[Sam's Cross]

Mr. C., I thought this article by a neuroscientist might be of interest to you and others. Here's a quote from near the end to get you to read all the way through,

"Nevertheless, a conclusion appears: Gay men were probably our first spiritual leaders. Our Shamans. In that social position, they would have been free to expect that their words would be heard, they would have been able to exploit their cognitive skills to the maximum, and they would have been able to access many altered states of consciousness that would've been unavailable to others.

The trust and respect that a skilled gay shaman might have been able to command might allow him to induce the placebo effect in other during times of illness, too.

Gay men may once have healed their people, led them spirituality, soothed interpersonal conflicts, and help them anticipate and avoid threats to their survival."

Its intresting, although he sometimes gets a little too basic, and sometimes sounds a little too much like Alan Partridge.

i.e: 'The gay male brain uses the same parts to be attracted to a man that I use to be attracted to a woman.'

I think that just shows you aren't stupid. There's no shortage of stupid people which is why I think he writes like that. I just like the idea of Mr. C as an ancient shaman in a pork pie hat.

Yes, OK. I've thought about it for a few months. I'll take it.

Just imagine how indescisive he is when he has to buy a hat.

Never indecisive. I just buy one in every colour and then consult with Pogues ace lighting designer Ian.
