A Reason for Being Gay
Tonight at 9pm on BBC Channel 3 a 21 year old guy says that after having a stroke he woke up to find his sexuality had changed. Before the stroke he was an avid rugby playing hetrosexual but that changed overnight to becoming gay and the loss of all his rugby pals.
If the brain is capable of being modified by rearranging the circuitry where does that point to in future research?

As with the other respondents to this thread, I think we'd be jumping ahead of ourselves if we took this chap's word for it that he had no sexual feelings for men prior to the accident.
It may be that in his subconscious, after the accident, he thought, "I could've died?.why bother wasting my life being something that I'm not?"
Incidentally, I find the whole insinuation that the opposite of gay is 'manly rugby player' quite bizarre - especially as both groups spend large amounts of time in the company of naked men, grabbing balls.
