《Fun Facts!》Men With Older Brother Are more Likely to be Gay
Advertisement
If you have a lot of older brothers and feel different from them, blame your biological mother's antibodies for not making you act "manly".
In some pregnant women, the baby boy's Y-chromosome triggers the mother's immune system to create antibodies, Antibodies are produced when they sensed foreign substances invading the body. Also, NLGN4Y seems to have a role in how neurons (brain cells) connect to each other. The mother's immune response may alter the function of the fetus's brain related to sexuality, which makes him not act so manly. But firstborns are not affected by their mother's immune response, only the subsequent son because after the mother has a son, her antibodies that target the protein made by the Y-chromosome increase. So gay sons with older brothers had significantly higher anti-NLGN4Y levels. However, this study does not answer how some first-born sons are born gay and why some women are lesbians. So more research is needed.
Plus, this study does not indicate that being gay is some sort of disease. It just tells that being gay is inborn and not a choice.

Superworld
Matt Callaghan is in trouble. In a world where everyone has superpowers, he's got squat, and has spent the last five years faking being clairvoyant just to avoid getting caught. Unfortunately, Matt's lies have started to catch up to him, and when a desperate bluff backfires he'll need every ounce of cunning, conning and juvenile delinquency to stay undetected and alive. Jane Walker is trouble. In a world where everyone is powerful, Jane stands alone and apart, hated for her ability to copy abilities and atrocities far beyond her control. But fate is a fickle friend, and a chance encounter soon finds Jane hurtling towards her lifelong dream - or prejudice, humiliation and a violent, painful death. Unbeknownst to them, Matt and Jane’s paths are inextricably intertwined, and as each struggles to find their place an unseen force will draw them ever forward – closer and closer to a secret whose existence threatens not just their lives, but the fate of the entire world. A loving homage to and twist on the superhero genre, Superworld is a fun, subversive story about identity, empathy, connection and courage which has been called “very entertaining and creative” and “an absolute pleasure” by readers, and "completely unreadable" by the author's blind grandfather.
