Correspondingly a girl may be similarly affected. Nonetheless, except of the anatomical defect, the boy may be romantically and erotically masculine, and the girl feminine. The romantic and erotic orientation of such a boy or girl belongs to an aspect of the G-I/R for which recently the name lovemap was coined (Money, 1986). Disclosure of a lovemap in public is tabooed by those people who define all erotically explicit stories or pictures as pornographic. For this reason, the specific investigation of lovemaps has seldom been undertaken in sexological research. In the biographies presented in this book, each case has been selected because of the research significance of the lovemap. The plan of presentation of the book is the same, case by case. First comes the diagnostic and clinical biography which establishes the specific sexological significance of the case for lovemap formation as masculine or feminine."]
