We’ve watched much of The Male Brain author Dr. Louann Brizendine’s entire presentation at FORA (embedded below), but of course all we’re told to care about is her section on “The Gay Brain.” Brizendine, a neuropsychiatrist, is following up 2006’s The Female Brain, and here she touches briefly on the biology behind gay boys.

@Adam, how is it a waste of time?

I have a FORA TV account . It’s an excellent site if you love debates, discussions, etc. although I doubt many people have the same likes as me.

@Chris H: Because the video contained no more information than the headline.

What the fuck does Brizendine know about male sexuality? I think it’s junk science, frankly.

It such a cliche, but doesn’t she have that “take off the glasses, put on red lipstick and go get your hair did and, voila! turned into the naughty, sexy scientist” thing going on here.

Fascinating! Indeed, I hope that she does subsequently come out with a book discussing our brains. :o)
