Mainly so they can ”explain the unexplained”. Pointless to me. Not many people actually care why someone is homosexual. It just is, and that’s a good enough reason for me.

Yeah, I dont see the point in having the ability to detect if someone is homosexual other than to discriminate.

They are going to win an Ig Nobel for sure. There are so many real issues to research about. But they are only interested in knowing whether someone is gay or not from the look itself!

How does it matter if we could find if someone is a gay just by looking at one. It is more fun to keep thinking ’is he, or isn’t he?’
The fact is no matter how hard scientists try, they can never be sure about it. There will always be a fair degree of doubt.
Does cholesterol actually kill? Answer that first convincingly enough. We’ll talk about other things later.

I have to side with Grace. She is exactly right. Frankly what’s the point? There is no reason we should even be researching this. It isn’t going to help anyone. Also when people submit newslinks, don’t forget to edit out the name of the site you got it from, e.g ”Los Angeles Times”.

I laud the inquisitiveness of scientists, but this one will lead once more to stereotyping which is the bedrock of bias.

I too would like to go by her words, its stupidest thing scientists can do.
whats got looks to do with sexual orientation is beyond me.
most of the people consider feminine men and masculine females to be homosexual, which is so untrue.
Even if there is a way to find out then I dont think that we really need to know, because that’d be invading in people’s personal life. because even till date their are people who are not comfortable with their sexual choices.
I’ll say, just let it be
