potentially how parasite makes people gay

[Deleted member 48352]

Toxoplasma is a common protozoan (a type of single-celled eukaryote) parasite, putatively infecting 1/3 of developed countries.

Toxoplasma has been shown to alter behavior in mice, and there is epidemiological data suggesting it alters human behavior as well.

Toxoplasma forms cysts in the brain.

In toxoplasma-infected mice, there was a mean of 10.4 cysts in the hypothalamus.

The sexually dimorphic nucleus is part of the preoptic area of the hypothalamus.

“Additionally, damage to the sexually dimorphic nucleus in male ferrets was associated with their sexually-motivated seeking of same-sex males rather than females.”

It's an interesting hypothesis but have there been any studies of gay people and how common these parasites are amongst gays vs general population? A third of people have it but a third aren't gay

A third of people have it but a third aren't gay

the cyst distribution in the brain varies

I think other parasites utilize this to make people gay, idk if toxoplasma is the main one. Parasites in general make people hypersexual to increase spread. Toxoplasma is transmitted through cum

Also over for you you are lesbian foid the parasites have taken over you!

I recall gays more likely toxoplasmosis could be reverse causation though cuz gays more sexual partners

Sexual Activity And Spread Of “Germs” Co-Evolved And Now Our Parabiosis Is Out Of Natural Balance Causing Abnormalities

Gay is caused by infection that spreads better through gay activities and therefore makes people gay to spread genital/anal to mouth contact fetish caused by parasites that utilize this to spread and reproduce. You may not be reproducing through this type of activity but the little guys are...

The thing about the search for one cause for homosexuality, is that something as complex as sexuality can rarely be narrowed down to one cause/explanation

People have tried to find correlates. Fingers have been pointed at parasites, childhood abuse, hormonal profile and while those things correlate may correlate to homosexuality there's never really a perfect 1:1 relation

Probably these parasites play a role in hypersexual gay behavior. But it's like finding one cause for height. It's part genetic, part nutrition and sleep, HGH, growth plates and so on but you can't point to one cause. That's how I think sexuality works

yes every aspect of reality is affected by every other aspect of reality
