Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 HI Laurel A study would be good - I wonder perhapd if it's not already being donoe? You lim=nk to sexuality is interesting. I know of no gays in my family but of course that doesn't mean there aren't any. take care Re: dyslexic boys and autoimmune girls? > Laurel, > I pick up accents really really quick! > Jody All I have to do is talk to my sis-in-law for 10 minutes and I sound like I was born and raised in Surrey BC. Poor hubby had to listen to a really interesting Newfoundland/Idaho accent when I got back from my brothers wedding and I drove my brother nuts when we were young and listening to the presidential debates with Jimmy . I sounded like a Georgia native. I won't mention what I sounded like after doing phone interview with other library workers from Texas, Hawaii, New York, New Jersey and Tennesee in one evening hehehehehe. I've always been able to pick up accents well, which was great when I was taking foreign languages in school.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 Laurel, Here is one link.... http://www.bhs.berkeley.k12.ca.us/departments/science/anatomy/anatomy98/Ariel/ html/Hormones.html I first learned of this through a DES listserv that I am a member of. I will check the archives...but it was a couple of years ago when I first saw it. Also, there is a site called Professor Sally's DES website that has many scientific papers and follows the DES research closely. My old link for Prof. Sally's site is not working, but she is still posting on the DES listserv...I'll try to get her new URL for you.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 , French is a annoying, if beautiful, language. Bet the French feel the same way about English. Bet if you sent him on a few excursions to the continent he might feel differently. Especially if he wanted to communicate with the kids. Don't kids always want to be cool and communicate with the other kids? They learn things that they should and a whole lot that you wish they didn't. Mine sure did!

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 , Its thought that the intrauterine hormonal influences on the fetus can cause a difference in wiring that influences gender identification and/or sexual preference. There are demonstrated differences in certain brain structures in gay men. There is a disproportionaly larger number of lesbian women who are left handed. Its been my experience that a lot of families have gay members who are either unrecognized (because they are private about it) or closeted. Nature is an amazing thing isn't it?

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 , Makes perfect sense! Dyslexics are visual and auditory learners. They compensate for their difficulty reading by developing good listening skills. Its possible (but I couldn't prove it) that, because of the tangle in one part of the brain, other areas develop in a disproportional way. So she may have those " pockets of brilliance " in any number of areas. The connection with autoimmunity, dyslexia, and handedness is pretty well established but nobody can predict its variations as yet. Its just very cool to me how often you find the autoimmune, lefty and dyslexic connection. Have a friend with real nasty allergies who has a left handed husband, a dyslexic son and a daughter who gets basialar artery migraines. Eventually this is going to be addressed holistically but while we have medical disciplines that approach human beings in a reductionism fashion, there will be people who suffer while they are compartmentalized. Its pretty much the same as what we are doing here. We have these amazing, common experiences which doctors (trained only in their own discipline) insist on telling us we are not having. So we have to rely on each other (Thank God we have each other) and our ability to do research. Were it not for Elaine's knowledge and Jody's kindness I don't know what I would have done through this messy business. I only hope that allopathic medicine one day stops being full of itself and listens to patients. I still have a nursing license and I have been in the allopathic system for a long time. My chiropractor gets better results than my physicians. Maybe because she is not only educated but she listens as well. Whoa! I need to get off the soapbox. Does your daughter have any theatrical aspirations? If she has that kind of memory bet she'd be a terrific actress.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 Wow! Doris. I never heard that one. Now you got me going. I'm going to have to look into this. Got any hyperlinks? I love this stuff. Its my personal belief that nature designs some of us to be gay. Just does. Found in all kinds of species other than humans. If I find out any thing new here I'd love to pass it on to my fairy godson, who is an occasional activist. I wonder if PFLAG knows about this. Bet they do and I just missed it. Doris you are my hero! Laurel Re: dyslexic boys and autoimmune girls? Ok, I'm going to add another oddity to this. I learned this through my researching DES daughters (as I am one). There is a 10 fold increase in gay and lesbian offspring in the DES children that were born to mothers who took DES. Researchers believe that this is due to the bathing of the fetus in the synthetic estrogen (DES) that the pregnant Mom's took while the fetus was developing at a specific time during gestation.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 Just looked at this mail. You are feeding one of my personal nasty habits. Reading this stuff is as bad for me as going into a bookstore. Can't stop. Like chocolate for most people. Can't look at this right now. I've got to pack to go to Chicago. Be there for a week. I've printed out a lot of stuff to take with me. Going blind for now staring at the computer. Doris you are soooo bad. (Smiling broadly while saying this!) Laurel Re: dyslexic boys and autoimmune girls?

Unfortuately does not sharae my enthusaiasm - he is going on a school day trip to France soon - partly to practice the langauge - but isn't keen to go. He is keen to learn Spanish - it's a much easier language- but it's unlikely he will be able to do this in school unless his French improves.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 " I love this stuff. Its my personal belief that nature designs some of us to be gay. Just does. Found in all kinds of species other than humans. " I have to object to this. There are no instances where other members of other species are exclusively " gay " unless something is wrong (i.e. endocrine disrupters) which aren't a product of nature. The favorite example of homosexual behavior is bonobo chimps. They are very sexual primates. However, if there is a receptive member of the opposite sex available, they will not choose to have sex with a member of the same sex. They'll opt for the opposite sex. If you want to say that there might be something going on with humans because of their big brains, there wouldn't be any argument about that. But homosexuality makes no biological sense. And biology is " nature " . Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
