I recently read an article about a woman who got in a car crash, with sever head trauma. Apparently the brain damage turned her into a raging nymphomaniac, sex addict. The problem is, she's married , and her husband now gets phone calls from the neighbors while he's at work, telling him how his wife is out in the street trying to fvck anyone who passes by. This was caused by the car crash, so its not her fault. (assuming it isnt a big ploy by her to have an excuse to be a hor, that is.)

Does anyone know of any other stories where head trauma causes wierd sexual side effects? It reminds me of the movie "A dirty shame," where everyone in this small town hits their head, they turn into some weird fetishist (funny fvcking movie BTW) where there is another group called p.r.u.d.e. trying to keep people from having sex.

Anyway, the reason I bring this up, is I was talking to this girl last night, and she was friends with some guy for years, and he always seemed straight as an arrow. She knows lots of gay people, and she is pretty good at spotting them. Anyway, a few months back, this guy gets in a pretty bad motorcycle wreck, and after he recovered, he was a flaming queen all of a sudden. We were trying to figure out if he was gay all along and fooled everyone, or if he hid his gayness from himself and the accident somehow freed him, or if something about the head injury itself might have made him change orientation. Has anyone ever heard of such a thing? I guess it was his birthday last night, and he went to a Village People concert. lol.

I dont know the guy, or really care; I was just curious about braindamage possibly affecting ones orientation. any thoughts, or better yet facts about this phenomenon?

It is within the realm of plausibility.
It is well established that frontal lobe lesions can cause personality changes and disruptions in various aspects of social cognition, leading to inappropriate sexual behaviour or violent or criminal behaviour.

I'm not sure why, but your post just sent me into a fit of laughter.

Never heard any such thing before, but I'd love to hear about any research into that area.
