This first time I saw this article was in Sociology class and I was so surprised! As soon as i saw it I thought of Gender class and thought it would be a great topic to discuss in class. I found this video very interesting and surprising. I thought it was pretty cool how these twins were so different and how Adam was so cool about liking girl things and even having his nails painted. Later on in life I am sure that he will change his gender. I also think it is so interseting that the study about body language on telling if someone was straight or gay was true.




This CBS 60 minute clip is about Childhood Gender Nonconformity, which is when a child's behavior and interests are of the opposite sex. It shows to twins that are completely different and how they have total opposite interests. This also talks about how Sociologists believe homosexuality is nature not nurture. Nature is what a person is born with where as nurture is what a person grows up learning. Later on in this video clip they do a study on gay and straight people and how apparently gay and straight people move differently and have different body language. They say that it is not true most of the time but on average it is. After they have a study on the voices of these people and how they talk.

Do you believe that homosexuality is nurture or nature?

Do you believe that you can tell someone is homosexual by their body language and the way they speak?
