It's only human nature after all...

...or is it??? Only human nature that is.

I have been alerted to the following reference guides vis a vis 'homosexuality noes not occur in nature' by the fabulous Trillion. These are stolen from her flickr gallery.

Synopsis: In this innovative celebration of diversity and affirmation of individuality in animals and humans, Joan Roughgarden challenges accepted wisdom about gender identity and sexual orientation. A distinguished evolutionary biologist, Roughgarden takes on the medical establishment, the Bible, social science - and even Darwin himself. She leads the reader through a discussion of diversity in gender and sexuality among fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals, including primates. The book explains how this diversity develops from the action of genes and hormones and how people come to differ from each other in all aspects of body and behaviour. Roughgarden reconstructs primary science in light of feminist, gay and transgender criticism and redefines our understanding of sex, gender and sexuality. The book may revolutionize our understanding of sexuality. Roughgarden argues that principal elements of Darwinian sexual selection theory are false and suggests a new theory that emphasises social inclusion and control of access to resources and mating opportunity. She disputes a range of scientific and medical concepts, including Wilson's genetic determinism of behaviour, evolutionary psychology, the existence of a gay gene, the role of parenting in determining gender identity and Dawkins's "selfish gene" as the driver of natural selection. She dares social science to respect the agency and rationality of diverse people; shows that many cultures across the world and throughout history accommodate people we label today as lesbian, gay and transgendered; and calls on the Christian religion to acknowledge the Bible's many passages endorsing diversity in gender and sexuality. "Evolution's Rainbow" concludes with bold recommendations for improving education in biology, psychology and medicine; for democratizing genetic engineering and medical practice; and for building a public monument to affirm diversity as one of our nation's defining principles.

Yes folks, get your Gay Test right here at Cakesniffers! Now, this is JUST FOR A LAUGH, and I certainly won't be taking any notice of the results, but why don't you check out Channel 4's Gay Test and see how you get on. It'd be interesting to see the results of others, but obviously, folk can be quite sensitive about this sort of thing and probably won't want to divulge.

Here's how I "came out":

"CAKESNIFFER IS 50% GAY! Congratulations, you've scored right in the middle and are a happy and well-adjusted lesbian babe!"

I've no idea how it came to that conclusion. Happy and well-adjusted my arse! Babe??

There are all sorts of more scientific tests for things such as racism, homophobia, sexism and other shit like that. But who gives a crap about real facts when you can get sensationalist rot from elsewhere?
