CR: Arousal test used on gay asylum seekers

Via Pink Paper:
An EU agency has condemned Czech authorities for using a sexual arousal test on asylum seekers who claim to be gay.

The process, called phallometric testing, involves measuring sexual arousal by monitoring blood flow into the penis. In this case gay asylum seekers are shown heterosexual pornography to see if they get an erection.

If the claimant becomes aroused, their chances of asylum become less likely.
