Animals?

Answer 3

The best source for any proof about why homosexuality exists is to expand the search beyond human beings and to look at the rest of the animal kingdom. Homosexuality exists in nature, in over 1,500 species of animals and birds. Since this is true, then we must ask ourselves, what is the function of homosexuality in nature? It must be serving some purpose, so what is that purpose?

Stanford biology professor Joan Roughgarden points out in her book Evolution’s Rainbow that most homosexual activity in the animal kingdom serves a fundamentally social purpose. Japanese macaques, for instance, live in female-only societies, arranged in rigid hierarchies. Power and cohesion are established through L*****n couplings, which can last up to four days and seem to prevent violence and aggression. Among many species, in fact, gayness seems to facilitate complex societies. One species of bird has males, females, and “marriage brokers” of a third gender, there to keep the species perpetuating. As adolescents, male bottlenose dolphins perform a kind of oral s*x on one another—or in threesomes or foursomes—in rituals that create lifelong friendships and defense partnerships against sharks and other predators.

Now, consider other animals. In most animal societies, not all animals are allowed to mate. Many times, ONLY the strongest are allowed to mate. In lion prides, there is one male but several females. Where are the other males? They are off in male packs, sort of like "sperm in reserve." And in order to cut down on aggression, some are more passive.

Take a look at wolves. There is the alpha male and the alpha female. These are the only two to mate in a wolf pack. So what are the other "L*****n" wolves and "g*y" wolves doing? They are simply "sperm and eggs" in reserve. And ALL of the pack members help with the feeding, caring, and protection of the offspring!

Take a look at geese. Most will pair off, but a few will form triads made up of one "straight" female, one "bisexual" male, and one "g*y" male. The offspring of these triads have a better survival rate because of more food and better protection from three rather than two.

Then there are Black Swans!  Some male swans form stable, long-lasting relationships with other males and occasionally raise children together. Males may have s*x with a female, build a nest with her, and then chase the female away once she has laid the egg. The male then raises the baby with his male partner. Other times g*y couples chase heterosexual couples from their nests, then raise the chick as if it were their own. These homosexual couples are frequently better-suited to parenting than their heterosexual counterparts -- as two males, they can secure a bigger territory. Since it is possible for these swans to raise a family without having s*x with a female, some swans are most likely exclusively homosexual. (http://www.esquire.com/the-side/opinion/...

Even with the lowly bedbug, males will ejaculate their sperm into other males. When those "pregnate males" mate with females, they eject not their own sperm, but the sperm they are carry from the initial "top dog!" The top dog is clearly at an advantage in spreading his genes.

So you see, there are some very clear examples in the animal kingdom about why "g*y" animals came into existence - and why we are still around and why the "g*y gene" doesn't die out. It clearly serves a purpose for the overall benefit of its specific animal group.

Well I won't report you because I am not a no life hag lol! But anyway I think its just natural and that we are animal's also so why is it a surprise?
