Human Sexuality

I saw an interesting video a few days ago on YouTube. I think this meshes well with the appeals court overturning of DOMA (again).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXAoG8vAyzIIt's interesting using the right nouns for the right concepts.Sex: The bits you were born with between your legs. This is the biological male-ness or female-ness that you have.Gender: What you feel you are between your ears.Orientation (physical): The gender or sex you want to get with between the sheets.Orientation (romantic): The gender or sex you want to grow old with.Sexual behavior: How you deal with other people in sexual situations.Gender role: What society thinks you should do.I think the video put it quite well: all exist in a continuum both in how you feel and how strongly you feel it.Six dimensions, each with two axis.

12 degrees of freedom.

Oh my!

Humanity is so rich not because we are all the same, but because we are all different!
