Abstract

This research examined if sibship composition (birth order and sibling sex ratio) was associated with sexual orientation among Iranian participants who varied in their gender identity/expression. Previous research shows that androphilic males tend to have more older brothers, a pattern known as the fraternal birth order effect (FBOE). Recent findings have also highlighted the possible relationship between number of older sisters and male androphilia, a pattern known as the sororal birth order effect (SBOE). Evidence on possible influence of sibship composition on female gynephilia is still emerging. In this study, sibship data for Iranian cisgender gynephilic males (n = 239), cisgender ambiphilic males (n = 106), cisgender androphilic males (n = 315), transgender androphilic males (n = 105), cisgender androphilic females (n = 269), cisgender ambiphilic females (n = 110), cisgender gynephilic females (n = 52), and transgender gynephilic females (n = 256) were analyzed. Compared to gynephilic males, a significant FBOE was found in ambiphilic and both androphilic male groups, and a significant SBOE was found in cisgender androphilic males. Compared to androphilic females, a significant SBOE was found in transgender gynephilic females, and a suggestive trend toward a FBOE was found in cisgender gynephilic females. Our study provided further empirical support for the association between older biological brothers and sisters and androphilia in later born males. Our study also contributed to limited literature on the association between older biological sisters and gynephilia in later born females, particularly, those who are relatively more masculine and identify as transgender.

摘要

本研究调查了在性别认同/表达各异的伊朗参与者中,同胞构成(出生顺序和兄弟姐妹性别比)是否与性取向相关。先前的研究表明,恋男性的男性往往有更多哥哥,这一模式被称为兄弟出生顺序效应(FBOE)。最近的研究结果还凸显了姐姐数量与男性恋男性倾向之间可能存在的关系,这一模式被称为姐妹出生顺序效应(SBOE)。关于同胞构成对女性恋女性倾向可能产生的影响的证据仍在不断涌现。在本研究中,分析了伊朗顺性别恋女性的男性(n = 239)、顺性别双性恋男性(n = 106)、顺性别恋男性的男性(n = 315)、跨性别恋男性的男性(n = 105)、顺性别恋男性的女性(n = 269)、顺性别双性恋女性(n = 110)、顺性别恋女性的女性(n = 52)以及跨性别恋女性的女性(n = 256)的同胞数据。与恋女性的男性相比,在双性恋和两种恋男性的男性群体中均发现了显著的FBOE,在顺性别恋男性的男性中发现了显著的SBOE。与恋男性的女性相比,在跨性别恋女性的女性中发现了显著的SBOE,在顺性别恋女性的女性中发现了FBOE的提示性趋势。我们的研究为年长的亲兄弟姐妹与后出生男性的恋男性倾向之间的关联提供了进一步的实证支持。我们的研究还为关于年长的亲姐妹与后出生女性的恋女性倾向之间关联的有限文献做出了贡献,特别是那些相对更具男性气质且认同为跨性别的女性。
