I don’t use screenshots of Wikipedia either lol thanks though. Most of those sources look ridiculous, there are like 2 that are problay worth clicking on that seem like real studies. I see where he got that gay penguin article from now. That’s why I don’t use Wikipedia. You have the entire library of Congress and endless studies at your fingertips, why be lazy lol?

"You can bring a horse to water, but you can't make it drink".

Wikipedia articles are as strong as the citations that they are built from, if you would prefer to ignore such extremely fantastic sources of evidence and information, then so be it, but the fact you refuse to actually check it out (But still hold an opinion on it) just undermines your own position.

If I was interested I would look into it more but I have already read a few articles from him and other users and they all say the same thing. A handful of species display habitual homosexual behaviors, mostly birds with brains the size of a peanut. 57 other species have displayed homosexual behaviors but it’s very rare to see. That’s all I needed to know. There is no gay pride going on in the animal kingdom.

If you aren't interested in it, then why are you even debating the topic?

There is zero evidence that animals are searching out same sex partners because of their sexual preference for “intimate relationships”. Showing homosexual behaviors and being a homosexual are different things.

Incorrect.
The evidence provided in this thread shows that some animals are searching out same-sex partners, don't try and spin your own narrative here. :P

Just because it's not happening en-masse' doesn't mean it doesn't occur.

They don’t think or operate like humans do, it’s as simple as that.

You could use that excuse in any comparison between animals and human beings, could you not?

 




1. You can bring me to the toilet and I will never drink it, not even if I’m thirsty lol. I guess we just disagree on the fantastic part. I might have read the lion ones I guess, they seem legit. I already know from a previous reply from another user that it’s a rare occurrence with them and not “habitual”. Not not really, my opinion is flimsy. I already said I don’t know. I just haven’t seen anything substantial to change my opinion.

 

2. I’m not debating, I’m responding to replies and links for a comment I made. I don’t think animals are to be compared in human context. Whats the closest animal in terms of intelligence, an orangutan? 

 

 

3. I never said homosexual behavior didn’t occur. I said homosexuality isn’t running rampant in the wild, it’s a fact. It’s a rare occurrence outside of a few species. No animal species would evolve into self extinction, there is something going on there. Overpopulation due to no predators, male female ratios, something rational. Self destruction is a human trait in more ways than just sexual preference. Jungle law is precise and shows no mercy. Mother Nature is also a ruthless bitch. Humans are the most unnatural creatures on the planet and we play outside the box. We cheat and sometimes the game gets buggy. Animals don’t cheat, they adapt to nature and the human element. Maybe it is natures way of thinning the the herd, I dunno. I still think it’s just overpopulated dumb birds lol. There is one penguin colony that is like a couple million strong. There is nothing there to eat them. 

 

4. You can use that for anything, sure. That was the point of the whole “rape” thing. I wasn’t comparing homosexuals to rape, I was comparing humankind with the animal kingdom. It’s not comparable.
