Chapter 11: Affiliative and Reproductive Strategies

The thing I found most interesting about this chapter was the higher rate of bisexuality and homosexuality in babies with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). It's a genetic condition resulting from higher-than-normal levels of androgens during gestation. In my high school psychology class we talked about another study where homosexuality in men was heightened due to changes during gestation. I think research in this area is very exciting because it helps support the idea that sexuality is not a choice which is something I firmly believe.
