	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Sexual orientation (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Sexual orientation refers to the sexual gender(s) to which a person is attracted and which form the focus of a person's amorous or erotic desires, fantasies, and spontaneous feelings, in other words the gender(s) toward which one is primarily "oriented".
		Most specialists follow the general conclusion of Alfred Kinsey regarding the sexual continuum, according to which a minority of humans are exclusively homosexual or heterosexual, and that the majority are bisexual, that is, that the norm is to experience a mixture homoerotic and heteroerotic feelings, each kind to a different degree.
		Because sexual orientation is complex and multi-dimensional, some academics and researchers (especially in Queer studies) have argued that sexual orientation is a completely historical and social construction.
