Nobody knew better than the ol' doc. And he did his research not long after the largest uncontrolled study of male/male sexuality under stress in history: World War II.

Read a book once called "Coming Out Under Fire" about experiences of gays in the service during WWII. And a lot of the book was about gay soldiers who already knew they were gay. But some of the book dealt with all the male/male sex going on between men who _didn't_ consider themselves gay -- but were a long way from home, young, and under stress with a tight group of other men who they'd bonded with.

Anyway, everybody's different, and everybody's ambivalent -- to a different degree, and also under different circumstances. It is entirely normal to wonder "what you are" when your own feelings don't seem to match up to the cultural norms for your sex. In reality, though, there aren't two sexes: there are about six billion.
