Found in nature therefore natural
No species has been found in which homosexual behaviour has not been shown to exist, with the exception of species that never have sex at all, such as sea urchins and aphis. Moreover, a part of the animal kingdom is hermaphroditic, truly bisexual. For them, homosexuality is not an issue.
The previous paragraph comes straight from wikipedia. There is only one species that practices homophobia. That is humans. It is homophobia that is unnatural and does not exist in the animal kingdom. There just are not any homophobic animals.
Why then do religions push a homophobic view. The only conclusion one can come to logicaly is that religions are unnatural and therefore the real problem.
For those that wonder what I did as my part in the continuing struggle for equality have a read of this newspaper article. The Gardian. I am still here and not going anywhere!
If they are in the 2% who were misgendered at birth because of genetic mutation or because physicians at the time didn't know what was actually happening they just don't exist right ... 2% of those born have red hair yet nobody says people with red hair don't exist ... 2% of those born have green eyes yet nobody says people with green eyes don't exist ... why is it that so many deny the existence of this genetic variation!!
The following is not mine but is all confirmed by the scientific method!
First of all, in a sexual species, you can have females be XX and males be X (insects), you can have females be ZW and males be ZZ (birds), you can have females be females because they developed in a warm environment and males be males because they developed in a cool environment (reptiles), you can have females be females because they lost a penis sword fighting contest (some flatworms), you can have males be males because they were born female, but changed sexes because the only male in their group died (parrotfish and clownfish), you can have males look and act like females because they are trying to get close enough to actual females to mate with them (cuttlefish, bluegills, others), or you can be one of thousands of sexes (slime mold, some mushrooms.) Oh, did you mean humans? Oh ok then. You can be male because you were born female, but you have 5-alphareductase deficiency and so you grew a penis at age 12. You can be female because you have an X and a Y chromosome but you are insensitive to androgens, and so you have a female body. You can be female because you have an X and a Y chromosome but your Y is missing the SRY gene, and so you have a female body. You can be male because you have two X chromosomes, but one of your X's HAS an SRY gene, and so you have a male body. You can be male because you have two X chromosomes- but also a Y. You can be female because you have only one X chromosome at all. And you can be male because you have two X chromosomes, but your heart and brain are male. And vice - effing - versa. Don't use science or religion to justify your bigotry (that would include "I just think") . The world is way too weird for that shit!!
If that isn't strange enough then check out parthenogenesis in Komodo dragons that is way out there and it does exist!!
