title: Homosexual behaviour in prenatally stressed male rats after castration and oestrogen treatment in adulthood.
abstract: Female rats were exposed to stress from day 14-21 of pregnancy. Their male offspring, after castration and oestrogen treatment in adulthood, displayed predominantly female-type, i.e. predominantly heterotypical sexual behaviour, whereas the controls responded to oestrogen by predominantly male-type, i.e. predominantly homotypical behaviour.
