  • Sexual Plasticity

    Sexual Plasticity | Adaptable, Changing and Diverse Sexuality

    For a long time, people believed that a person’s sexuality was fixed, predetermined and immutable: a sort of internal essence that accompanied an individual throughout life with little or no change. According to this traditional view, a person was born heterosexual or homosexual, male or female, and these characteristics remained stable forever. However, human reality is far more complex.

  • Homosexual Behavior and Homosexuality: They Are Not the Same Thing

    The homosexual behavior and the homosexuality | Diferent things

    Homosexual behavior and homosexuality are often confused, but they are different concepts. Having a sexual experience with someone of the same sex/gender does not automatically make someone homosexual. Likewise, a person may identify as homosexual without ever having had sex.

  • Inuit women, bisexuality and the Primus stove

    Inuit Sexuality and the Primus: Sexual Identity and Human Plasticity

    The following article emerged from research begun by Moscas de Colores while working on our Kalaallisut Gay Dictionary and Kalaallisut Lesbian Dictionary, the language spoken by the Inuit peoples of Greenland. Through the words we collected and our need to understand them within their cultural context, we began following a thread that eventually led us to much deeper questions related to human sexual identity, its construction and its capacity for adaptation.

  • Pupil dilation and sexual orientation

    Pupil dilation and sexual orientation| Is heterosexuality a minority?

    Some time ago, began circulating through the networks the news about people’s sexual orientation could be known by measuring the pupil dilation. The news seemed interesting, but each of the links provided the same information and it did not report too much. As you know, in Moscas de Colores, we are very interested in any scientific information on sexual diversity in any of its aspects, so this news needed more detail to know if it was true or not and, in the second case, find out what was behind so much headline. That’s why we visited the website of the Cornell University (US) to look for that study and to see what we found.

  • Before homosexuality, a story without labels

    Before homosexuality, a story without labels | Historical & personal experie

    Gender, transgender, transsexuality, intersexuality, bisexuality, homosexuality, identity… Over the last century we have expanded our vocabulary as our understanding of sexual diversity has grown, and with this new vocabulary we have been writing a discourse that seeks to situate and explain each of the multiple manifestations of that diversity.

  • The sexual behavior of the Sambia

    The Sambia and the Cultural Relativity of Sexuality

    What would happen if an American newborn were raised from childhood within a Sambia tribe in Papua New Guinea? What if a Sambia child were raised from birth in a Western family? Both would probably understand sexuality, desire, masculinity and human relationships in completely different ways.

  • What is homosexual?

    Homosexual. What is? | Homosexual. Unlearning concepts.

    Behaviors, attitudes and sexual tendencies of people have been seen and understood in many different ways depending on the culture or the time, and with that I am referring not only to sex between same sex people but everything that belongs to the sphere of human sexuality. The idea of a general and absolute rejection of any type of sexual contact between persons of the same sex is totally false and only understood from the Judeo-Christian perspective of the last millennium where all sexual behavior must be controlled and often suppressed or annulled.

  • Homosexuality in the 21st century

    Moscas de Colores is a project with several orientations. One is the explanation of homosexuality through the words that mankind has used and uses to speak of homosexual fact made in our species; because the rejection of homosexuality and human homosexuality has an origin and an explanation, whichever it may be. With an explanation things are better understood, and what is understood is rejected and feared less. With the search and the study of words, the diffuse past becomes clearer, because with the words placed on the map, what were those societies reach until today, to us, immersed in a world debate about whether we marry or not and whether we adopt or not.
