Shelly, forgive me but I don't know what you're talking about. Aren't we arguing the same thing? No one ever said that high T levels would make you desire men. The opposite was stated. High T levels would cause, to an extent, a highER desire for WOMEN. Doesn't that make logical sense? I believe that sexual orientation is, for the most part, 'hard-wired' in people's brains, but why wouldn't hormones have something to do with it? I am not saying that straight women whose bodies produce more testosterone than average suddenly become lesbians. I AM saying, I find women attractive although I prefer men. Apparently others here do too. Wouldn't it be interesting if there was a hormonal cause? that's all.... no one else has to be dragged into it.

Apparently I offended you somehow - please accept my apologies.
