The phenotypic measures used by Ganna (Research Articles, 30 August 2019, p. 882) lump together predominantly heterosexual, bisexual, and homosexual individuals, including those who have experimented with a same-sex partner only once. This may have resulted in misleading associations to personality traits unrelated to understood categories of human sexuality. Scientific studies of human sexuality should use validated and reliable measures of sexual behaviors, attractions, and identities that capture the full spectrum of complexity.
甘纳(研究文章,2019 年 8 月 30 日,第 882 页)使用的表型测量方法将主要的异性恋、双性恋和同性恋个体混为一谈,包括那些只与同性伴侣有过一次性体验的个体。这可能导致与人类性行为的已知类别无关的人格特征产生误导性关联。人类性行为的科学研究应该使用经过验证和可靠的性行为、吸引力和身份测量方法,以捕捉到复杂性的全貌。
