Ummm ... bullshit?
I've taken classes in psychometrics, test construction, and so on. The results of her study are going to end up being off, very off, because a high proportion of the questions REQUIRE that you be homosexual in order to answer them. She needed either to completely rephrase the questions or to add a "not applicable" choice.
