ABSTRACT
It should not be necessary to remark that the division of any group of human beings into those who are heterosexually adapted and those who are chiefly homosexual in their interests is somewhat arbitrary. Phylogenetically and embryologically it seems that we have evolved from a state of hermaphroditism and it would be unlikely if not impossible that any individual would lose all traces of bisexuality however mature he became. A predominance of maleness or femaleness, according to the sex, is all that may be expected in those who are heterosexually adjusted. In many individuals it seems that the sexual balance is so delicate that unfortunate sexual traumata occurring early in life, or the many obstacles in the pathway to sexual maturity may determine a homosexual development. *
