OK, so I was feeling like looking up something odd to post, and clicked on the Canadian Journal of Human Sexuality. What are the chances, I thought, that it would feature something about moose or flying squirrels or some other odd animal? Actually, pretty high:
Assessing Bear/Cub/Otter identity and history of cardiovascular disease among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men in Metro Vancouver
Otter identity?
I am curious about the last line in the abstract:
Interventions should target all gbMSM with increased risk for cardiovascular disease and clinicians should be mindful of culturally sensitive prevention and care for gbMSM who identify as a BCO.
What exactly does being culturally sensitive to a gay bear/cub/otter (still ?? about otter) who is looking good for a heart attack entail? Do they think it's harder to tell a "bear" to lose weight because it's at the core of their sexual identity? I hope that's not their point.
Anyway, enough silliness today...
