Heterosexuality

| A baker's dozen on sex |
Heterosexuality describes a state whereby an individual is attracted primarily to people of the "opposite" gender. In its commonly accepted formulation, it completely ignores the concept of multiple genders and mixed attraction modes.
[edit] Causes of heterosexuality
The causes of heterosexuality are to date largely unknown. Some have argued that so-called "straight" people were born that way, whereas other posit that heterosexuality is a choice. Furthermore, some "scientists" argue that heterosexuality is a result of a variety of factors, both biological and environmental. A quick survey of the printed publications reveals beyond a doubt that heterosexuality is much less interesting that its counterpart, homosexuality (especially, it seems, to conservatives).
[edit] Implications of heterosexuality
It is notable that heterosexual partnerships contribute the single largest portion of divorces nationwide, suggesting that such relationships may be inherently unstable. Furthermore, some types of heterosexual sexual activity (in particular, penile/vaginal intercourse to male climax) are well-noted for such side-effects as spontaneous (but laggy) spawning.
