The New York Time's article this past year demonstrated that since testing for downs became widespread, the number of children born with downs syndrome has fallen off the map. Hardly any children born with downs now comparatively.

I know what I am saying may sound far fetched, but I am not sure it is.

I think the finger/digit thing is very superficial (my ring fingers are much shorter on both hands and I'm very much a lesbian and have PCOs).

I do not deny that hormone and hormone exposure plays a role, but the research just makes me very nervous.

I completely understand where you are coming from here, and your points are very valid. I also don't want anyone to 'figure out why' people are Gay, Lesbian or Bisexual. We can come up with so many different answers, 'proven' so many ways... but I honestly believe that it is something you are literally born with... a very natural phenomenon ... in a good way that is.

Enough of my babbling...

my ring finger is much longer than my first finger on my right hand (non-dominant hand) ... but my ring finger is just ever so slightly longer on my left hand... very interesting...

I'm curious as to if there is any research on 'left hand vs. right hand dominance' in lesbianism....

any thoughts?
