Take a gander at this story from the BBC website. I can't believe such a thing exists. :lol:

I'm curious to see what you folks think. I'll comment later...

And here’s one for all you connoisseurs of irony:

“The results of this study indicate that individuals who score in the homophobic range and admit negative affect toward homosexuality demonstrate significant sexual arousal to male homosexual erotic stimuli.”
Words, like Nature, half reveal and half conceal the soul within.
