all rhetorical questions, perhaps, at least to me."

This has intrigued me...care to explain further?"

As an interesting aside, Dr. Drew is able to identify callers who are abuse victims by the sound of their voice, and even accurately determine the age at which they were abused. If an older female calls into the show, and sounds like a 10-year-old girl, chances are good that they were abused at around age 10. On some level they are still dealing with the abuse, and it comes out in the way they sound- almost like it stunted their emotional growth, and stopped the clock at that point in their development."

From listening to hours and hours of "loveline with Dr. Drew" on the radio, I understand that for some reason abuse victims tend tend to want (on a subconscious level) to relive their abusive past over and over. A girl who had an abusive father for instance, have a tendency to be attracted to men who are abusive in the same way their fathers were. Similarly, young boys who are sexually abused by men seem to have a tendency to become gay."

Simon LeVay said: "It's important to stress what I didn't find. I did not prove that homosexuality was genetic, or find a genetic cause for being gay. I didn't show that gay men are born that way, the most common mistake people make in interpreting my work. Nor did I locate a gay center in the brain. INAH-3 is less likely to be the sole gay nucleus of the brain than a part of a chain of nuclei engaged in men and women's sexual behavior...Since I looked at adult brains we don't know if the differences I found were there at birth, or if they appeared later"
