And nothing is "fully proven" - but it's "statistically significant" which is good enough.<br /><br />2. So being a single gay man means you aren't gay b/c you're not "actively" gay? So you're not straight b/c you're not "actively" straight when you're single? You're single Dave. Is that you choosing to not express your straightness personality trait? <br /><br />3. The US = huge population + way more money. And it is so based there! Come on! Only 6 of the 30 NHL teams are in Canada!!

And I think sports = high testosterone isn't exactly accurate, either. There are plenty of low testosterone people that are in sports.<br /><br />- Yeah, I can understand the "lifestyle choice" thing. However, a lot of people who are gay never see men - there are perpetually single people that are secretly gay and choose not to express that part of themselves... just like there are people who have all sorts of personality traits that they wish to keep hidden. I don't mean to offend with the term.<br /><br />-I don't really know if sports are bigger in the U.S. Hockey is pretty big in Canada - probably bigger than any single sport is in the U.S., culturally speaking.Crazy Newthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089291269912771603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068227604866393509.post-72527902095563153032009-11-25T19:33:26.719-08:002009-11-25T19:33:26.719-08:00Ah!

I'll simplify with extreme note form:<br /><br />- Sports = high testosterone, gay = low testosterone, thus odds not THAT high of gayness (unless we're talking females....)<br /><br />- "lifestyle choice" bothers me. Of my 20+ gay male friends I can't name one that "chose" to be gay. Did you "chose" to like girls?<br /><br />- I guess it's a step - but it will still be all controversy. Too many dumb men like sports (dumb men = homophobic = big deal). Plus most of sports is based in the US (US = loads of homophobes = bigger deal)<br /><br />just saying...Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05969263681190034535noreply@blogger.com
