Article: Men are the weakest sex

[Valentina]

Dear Igala,

I was just sent this link to an article claiming new research is showing the feminilization of males. I think it is a great example of the manipulation of research on sexuality by the media. I would be interested to hear what you think about it.

One of the frst thing to strike me is the conflation of gender and sexuality. And the not-so-subtle homophobic innuendo.

Best,
