THE SEXUAL ORIENTATION OF MEN WHO WERE BROUGHT UP IN GAY OR LESBIAN HOUSEHOLDS

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  21 April 2004

Abstract

Elsewhere the author has suggested that adolescent and adult male homosexual orientation is, in some cases, causally associated with sexual or quasi-sexual experience in childhood (James, 2004). Here it is argued that the available data on men raised by same-sex parents cannot validly be interpreted as supporting or refuting this suggestion.
