A typology for understanding sexual variation
The standard model of sex and gender is
extremely simple:
Any person who has a female body is a woman. But that is not
all:
1. She feels
that she is a woman
2. She thinks like a woman (whatever that is supposed to mean)
3. She is attracted to men
2. She thinks like a woman (whatever that is supposed to mean)
3. She is attracted to men
The only complexity most people try to handle these days is
item number 3: Sexual orientation. More and more seem to agree that same-sex
sex is OK, and therefore add sexual orientation as a second dimension to the
model.
