established a highly functional mating system based upon specific sexual 
dimorphisms, was that system totally discarded as complexities such as 
multi-cellularity, olfactory/vomeronasal systems, and MHC/Ig genes were 
added? 

 	  OR 

Even though not yet identified (and perhaps not even looked for, given the 
focus upon olfactory and vomeronasal systems), is a similarly yeast-like 
sexual-orientation mechanism still present and functioning in humans and 
other mammals (within layer one)?

***
VARIATIONS:

My hypothesis also suggests that variations in sexual- and/or 
gender-orientation may arise (at least in some individuals) via a 
person's autoimmune reactions targeting one or more of his or her "Layer 
One" substrates that are involved in the processing of sexually 
significant chemo-signals.
