So, Hetracil was just an ingenious thought experiment, but it turns out that authorities in the United Arab Emirates are serious about trying to chemically “cure” homosexuality. A group of men arrested at a gay wedding ceremony (apparently frowned on in the UAE) will be subject to “treatment,” including injections of male hormones. Color me dubious: I can think of a couple clubs that would put to rest the notion that a paucity of testosterone is the culprit here.
