Homosexual and Heterosexual men present characteristic patterns of cortical synchronization in response to Visual Sexual Stimuli.

Since several cortical areas participate in the processing of sexual stimuli, this study characterized the electroencephalographic activity of prefrontal, temporal and parietal areas in men with different sexual orientation while observing erotic videos with homosexual (HOV) and heterosexual (HEV) c...

The homosexual group presented lower absolute power of theta band in the right temporal cortex and higher right fronto-temporal correlation of beta band when observing the HOV. While the heterosexual group rated only the HEV as pleasant, also presented a higher left fronto-temporal correlation of beta band while watching the HEV, and a lower right fronto-parietal correlation of theta band during observation of the HOV.
