Males
and females do not represent two discrete populations, heterosexual and
homosexual. The world is not to be divided into sheep and goats. Not all
things are black nor all things white. It is a fundamental of taxonomy that
nature rarely deals with discrete categories. Only the human mind invents
categories and tries to force facts into separated pigeon-holes. The living
world is a continuum in each and every one of its aspects. The sooner we
learn this concerning human sexual behavior the sooner we shall reach a
sound understanding of the realities of sex. (Alfred Kinsey, Sexual Behaviour
in the Human Male, 1948)

An informative essay on the attitudes, laws and statistics regarding homosexuality around the world. Discussion of homosexual behavior in tribal, Islamic and Western society, transvestites and sodomy laws.
'Homosexuality, the sexual and/or emotional desire for others of the same gender as oneself, is found widely among the societies of the world. However, the social acceptance of it varies dramatically.'

This website is an exploration of human evolution but unlike most studies
on the evolutionary origins of man, it does not take genetics or genes as
its basic idea but epistemology, the theory of knowledge.
Man possesses much more social knowledge than does any other species and
the coevolution between our genetic and social natures has had a great impact
upon humankind. This enables an understanding of aspects of human sexuality
that have previously been mysterious, such as homosexuality and other sexual
deviations.

'The data indicates that at least 37% of the male population has some
homosexual experience between the beginning of adolescence and old age.
Among the males who remain unmarried until the age of 35, almost 50 % have
had a homosexual experience.
It is true that there are persons in the population whose histories are
exclusively heterosexual and exclusively homosexual. But the record shows
that there is a considerable portion of the population whose members have
combined both homosexual and heterosexual experience.'

From the website: 'This is a study of the sexual histories of 1,200 lesbians and bisexual women. ... Oral sex, vaginal penetration with fingers, and mutual masturbation were the most commonly reported sexual practices between women. ... This data demonstrates that lesbians and bisexual women may have varied sexual histories with both male and female partners.'

From the website: 'This study examined the birth order in a sample of pedophiles. The results indicated that homosexual or bisexual pedophiles had a later birth order than heterosexual pedophiles. The results extend previous findings that homosexual men, regardless of sample composition, have a later birth order than comparable groups of heterosexual men. The results also challenge some existing theories on the nature and origins of pedophilia.'

From the website: 'Gay people have often been portrayed as a threat to children. In recent years, antigay activists have routinely asserted that gay people are child molesters. The empirical research does not show that gay or bisexual men are any more likely than heterosexual men to molest children. This is not to argue that homosexual and bisexual men never molest children. But there is no scientific basis for asserting that they are more likely than heterosexual men to do so. Many child molesters cannot be characterized as having an adult sexual orientation at all; they are fixated on children.'

Analyse
any human emotion, no matter how far it may be removed from the sphere of
sex, and you are sure to discover somewhere the primal impulse, to which
life owes its perpetuation. ... The primitive stages can always be re-established;
the primitive mind is, in the fullest meaning of the word, imperishable.
... Mans most disagreeable habits and idiosyncrasies, his deceit, his cowardice,
his lack of reverence, are engendered by his incomplete adjustment to a
complicated civilisation. It is the result of the conflict between our instincts
and our culture. (Sigmund Freud)
