Self-Labeled Sexual Orientation and Sexual Behavior Considerations for STD-Related Biomedical Research and Education

Author Stephanie A. Sanders Author June Machover Reinisch Author Mary Ziemba-Davis

Abstract

It is a characteristic of the human mind that it tries to dichotomize in its classification of phenomena. Things either are so, or they are not so. Sexual behavior is either normal or abnormal, socially acceptable or unacceptable, heterosexual or homosexual; and many persons do not want to believe that there are gradations in these matters from one to the other extreme.
