Sommervile

Somerville tells on the accounts of the differences between homosexuality being an attribute of different races. The argument begins with Somerville arguing that homosexuality was something that which people were born with instead of choosing to born and that medically there was a reason. The author states that somewhat of a reasoning behind this abnormality was a “the model female born into a model males body”. There were tests being done in order to attempt to find a relation to race and homosexuality. Somerville goes on to explain that since the different races evolved differently and at different paces there is going to be a difference in the ideals. There were even some tests done to Caucasian Women and African American women to see if there is a difference in their organs because that may somehow be a cause. Because of the Caucasian organs less noticeable and accessible compared to the African organs, the whites were scientifically better and more evolved. The test was sadly able to tell some people that there were differences biologically between these races and that one must be inferior to the other. The author writes about the scientific test done to show the differences of not only races but of human sexuality.
Why is there so much emphasis on trying to find the differences between people, we know that were all inherently the same and genetically there is no real difference, why cant people just accept that?
How many people actually believe that there are genetic differences, we must believe that the majority of people are logical semi intelligent beings so why is there so much stupidity.
I can believe that there were tests being done to try and push the idea of “wrong” to the African race because many white want to push anything they think of as wrong toward a type of people they do not understand, this is strongly pointed at the black race because ever since the start of slavery white believed blacks to be less of people.
