i'm so stressed i'm getting gayer

Dr. Libertado Cruz, executive director of the Philippine Carabao Center (PCC) claimed that stress could cause homosexuality in humans, much like it happens with carabaos and other animals.

Cruz was lecturing about the technologies that have to do with carabao sex, when he discussed the impact of stress on human and animal sexual behavior.

“One of the causes of psycho-social sex differentiation is stress,” he said.

Cruz said if stress could cause homosexuality in animals, it could do the same in humans.

“There is a critical period of brain development where brain circuitry changes, and there are neurotransmitters in the brain that regulates the circuitry,” he said.

“So pag-na-stress yung tao, yung neurotransmitter na sorotonym, tumaas and that causes the differentiation of neuro-connectivity in the brain,” he said.

With Filipino's penchant to being in the limelight, Cruz's assumption is a shoo-in to the Darwin Awards.
