This is a fascinating topic, I’ve read posts in which homosexuals who were prescribed ivermectin broke up with their significant other after and completely changed their gender of attraction. I’ve tried to bring up the data correlating toxoplasmosis to this to multiple health and science forums and get instantly banned. Controversial yes, but I think it does deserve some investigation.
