From the medical standpoint, (I have been a RN for 35+ years-) does everyone understand that all fetuses are female first? A fetus becomes male IF the "right" hormone load gets delivered at the "right" time and IF the fetus has the "right" receptors to receive the hormones. When you look at the process there is a HUGE margin for error. Why is anyone surprised that the process does not go perfectly? The hormones got there 6 hours too late, the receptors did not take upthe hormones correctly. Crazy! So- if one can understand or believe that premise, then I am more surprised that the dominant society is 100% anything. No one signs up to be gay- no one signs up to be straight. We are who we are. There is not one culture in any time since the beginning of man which did not have people with varying sexualities. Personally, I don't think it is any of my business who is the object of "your" desire as long as it is not ME!! There have been times when I have had to ask someone which gender the person is- only beccause I have to assign a same sex hospital room. I have had LOTS of gay friends/relatives and lots of heterosexual friends/relatives through out the years (and a couple unknowns), I am more concerned with if they eat pork or shrimp, which wine do they like, what is their favorite color, and will they be timely- I hate people who come late!! My 2¢s
