Am I Gay?

So, I was reading an article published in New York Magazine about the science of gaydar and scientists have found certain links to the physiology of gay people that lead them to believe that being gay is biological (DUH!). Well, one of those things is the relationship between a person's index and ring fingers. Lesbians and straight males tend to have an index finger that is shorter than their ring finger. Gay men and straight women tend to have their index and ring fingers be the same length.

And me? My index finger is a WAY shorter than my ring finger, thus indicating that I'm super gay. LIke Rosie O'Donnell or Ellen Degeneres gay. Am I gay? I'm pretty sure that I don't like to eat cooch, but biologically...

Now this is a slippery slope. I don't know if you remember a study a few years ago done on serial killers which found that serial killers tortured animals. Somehow it got into the American psyche that torturing animals=serial killer. But if you read the study, you'd know that while all serial killers tortured animals, not all people that tortured animals became serial killers. That's a BIG distiction.

Another thing is that if we study the biological basis of being gay, can a 'cure' be far behind? Can we genetically engineer straight children just like we can manufacture our children's genders or physical features? SCARY!!!
