New research conducted by the Department of Psychology at the University of Essex has stated that all women are on the LGBT spectrum.
Dr. Gerulf Rieger has completed extensive research in the field of sexual orientation, focusing on pupil dilatation compared to genital arousal.
His latest study involved 345 who were shown videos of naked men and women and had their responses analysed.
The results, which were based on elements such as whether their pupils dilated in response to sexual stimuli, showed that straight women were strongly sexually aroused by videos of both attractive men and attractive women, despite claims they were only interested in men.
Subjects who identified as lesbians were said to be more like men in their responses because it is usually men who show distinct sexual responses to their favourite sex.
Dr. Rieger said “Even though the majority of women identify as straight, our research clearly demonstrates that when it comes to what turns them on, they are either bisexual or gay, but never straight.”
Dr. Rieger has analyzed social influences on sexuality in past research and is committed to understanding the holistic story of sexual orientation.
He says “My work has focused on sexual orientation: how it is organized, how it develops, and how it affects a person’s life. I use a wide diversity of methodologies, ranging from self-report to assessing physiological activity and neurological correlates, and employ an array of quantitative skills in order to pursue my research. I use home videos to examine behavioural signals of childhood masculinity-femininity and how they predict adult sexual orientation.
I am currently conducting research that will aid in explaining how early sex and sexual orientation differences in sexual attraction patterns emerge. These studies have broad relevance for understanding how people perceive themselves and others, as well as consequences of these perceptions, and for the development of differences between and within the sexes”.
