Well, that makes sense

AP Wire 05/10/2005 Gay men respond differently to pheromones

They respond similarly to women in brain imaging studies done with pheromones. In fact, they respond strongest to pheromones of other gay men, whereas heterosexual women and men and for that matter lesbians respond least to gay pheromones.

One more tally in the genetics vs. learnt behaviour as a means of explaining homosexuality.

So do bisexuals respond indiscriminately to everybody's pheromones? Or just to gay same-sex or straight opposite-sex odours? Hmmmm. I think my brain is flawed; I seem to be attracted to gay men, more's the pity. Anyway, it's an interesting study; I hope they keep up the investigation.
