Sexual Orientation Revealed in Eye Dilation Study - ABC News
Wow is all I gotta say with this one. Kinsey may actually have had it somewhat right with his idea of a sexual spectrum.
They say the eyes are window to the soul, and now scientists say the pupils can also reveal a person's sexual orientation.
For the first time, researchers at Cornell University have used a specialized infrared lens to measure pupillary changes while subjects watched erotic videos to determine which gender they found attractive.
The results of the study were published Aug. 3 in the scientific journal PLoS One.
In most cases, a person's stated sexual orientation matched the dilation of their pupils, which show signs of arousal. Previously, scientists used instruments to measure genital arousal, methods that were "too invasive."
