Due to a particularly interesting and apparently “old-fashioned” and “biologically determinist” section in Susan Blackmore’s The Meme Machine (Chapter 10: ‘An orgasm saved my life’), I’ve been scouring the web for information on evolutionary psychology’s positions on homosexuality. As yet, my aims remain relatively unrewarded, but I have found an astonishing document of an almost staggeringly dubious nature, which may or may not be true: “The Evolutionary Psychology of Human Sex and Gender”. One of the horrors of the Internet is, of course, that there is a lot of information but little way of judging what parts of that information are accurate and based on expertise or authority. I’m going to be pondering this one for a while, I fear.
