Science: Simon LeVay: The Science of Sexual Orientation
Since neuroscientist Simon LeVay reported a difference in the brain structure between gay and straight men in 1991, an entire scientific discipline has sprung up around the quest for a biological explanation of sexual orientation. And now LeVay, author of Gay, Straight, and the Reason Why, explains where the science stands today. Although many details remain unresolved, he says, the general conclusion is quite clear: A person's sexual orientation arises in large part from biological processes that are already under way before birth. Presented as part of Seattle Science Lectures, with Pacific Science Center and University Book Store. Series sponsored by Microsoft; series media sponsorship provided by KPLU.
