It could have been titled that way. I think that would have been more provacative. But hey….
Researchers report finding:
“Striking similarities between the brains of gay men and straight women have been discovered by neuroscientists, offering fresh evidence that sexual orientation is hardwired into our neural circuitry.”
Maybe they should do a scan of heterosexual male genitalia and lesbian genitalia and see if that also matches. Or the hormone output of gay testes and heterosexual female ovaries. Perhaps on average the gay male left testicle is bigger than the right and the heterosexual female left ovary is bigger. But that would be what…..ridiculous?? But not with the brain right…….Right..
I think some gay men would be frankly offended by being told they have a female brain and some lesbians offended by being told they have a male brain.
But alas…you can read for yourself at the Guardian. And make up your own mind, whether you are female (or gay) or male (or lesbian)…
According to the article, when you ask for directions to get somewhere, you ought to be sure that the person you are asking is either a heterosexual male or a lesbian. If you ask for directions from someone who is gay or heterosexual female, you might get lost…..so ask that first before asking directions…

Your write-up elicited from me an amused snort. Consider yourself special!
