First sentence: I open this precis on sexuality and psychology with an awareness and concern that much of what is written about here bears the stamp of politics, social notion, and convention more than the print of the physiological, behavioral, and genetic sciencesthat is, what is specified as this or that in terms of personality, thinking, drives, or biology has often a tenuous and maybe more faddish existence than our idealistic construction of science should allow.
