Gay women tend to be exclusively sexually attracted to women, while straight women are more likely to be aroused by both sexes, a study says.

Researchers asked 345 women about their sexual preferences and compared these with their arousal levels when shown videos of attractive men and women.

They found 28% of straight women were mostly aroused by their preferred sex, compared with 68% of gay women.

The University of Essex study concluded that no woman is "totally straight".

    Actually, the opposite was the interesting part of this study.
    It showed that gay women had 'arousal' more similar to straight men.

    Women were previously shown to have their bodies recognize a wider range of things as being sexual than men, and responding to it, regardless of actual sexual interest. This shows gay women don't respond to as much.
