“I sometimes marvel how truth progresses, so difficult is it for one man to convince another, unless his mind is vacant.” ~ Charles Darwin

 
Picture
Every scientist is a person. In understanding science through a history, philosophy, and sociology of science lens, we must always consider who scientists are and what may affect their biases in conducting their science. It is really odd then that we basically never hear of LGBT scientists in the historical media, and this is not because they did not exist.

    About The Site

    On this site we set out to explore the question: How does sexual orientation affect the process of science, and how has science responded in “explaining” sexual identities?  We understand this topic is a very personal topic for many and wish to emphasize that any information we put on this site is not our own opinions but rather a documentation of the history of science and sexuality.
