    Are Straight People Born That Way? - Alice Dreger - Health - The Atlantic

    I like the final paragraph alot. I found this whole article to be a good read, but the switching of perspective is refreshing:

    i found that rather informative i never knew something like that homosexual transgenderism would happen in the world today its astounding and i suppose i would have just liked to see "we don't really know where human sexual orientations come from yet" for time purposes
