By which logic, red-headedness, genius IQs, and left-handed people are obviously "not normal".
Your question a) is as relevant as asking why there aren't more left-handed people.
Question b) is based on pure population growth, driving an increase in homosexuals cause there are more people.

Answer a) If homosexuality was the norm, the majority of us would be homosexual.
Answer b) the population of people on earth would be dropping since homosexuals don't reproduce naturally.

And thus the obfuscation begins.
These two didn't have any predators in the zoo.
Can you really show any example of how penguin pairs try to help one another (based on PAIR relationship scenarios) in the wild?
No. You can't.
Cause you're just making up stupid junk at this stage to ignore what they're doing.

So you think that an animal loses its native instincts when placed in a zoo? If that's the case, why are the lions still caged?

No.
And if you read any of the research on gays in the animal kingdom, you wouldn't make such ridiculous comments.
You aren't even on the same track as what we're talking about.
These two bonded together. They rejected the advances of female penguins.
They created a nest together, and raised a child together.
And to ignore those facts, you try to mock the idea by talking about other nonsense that has absolutely nothing to do with gay animals.

And your insistence on equating human traits to those of animals acting on instincts is absurd.
Quote:
Yeah.
GAY ANIMALS.
Look. I realize you prefer ignorance cause it's safe and cozy and Republican.
But it's like you're attacking the idea of what a "city over-pass" is by ridiculing a ditch.
I realize this is a futile attempt, but I'll make it anyways.
Here's one article describing SOME gay animals.
If you want to discuss it (and I know you don't), let me know.

The fact that you're not the only one that engages in anthropomorphism isn't a surprise to me. Tell me, if a hard-core criminal in prison for life porks his cellmate because there are no women accessible, is he gay? Or is he being opportunistic? any port in the storm?

Penguins have no predators in the zoo.
These two decided to nest together, acting as a couple.
What you don't seem to grasp is that people typically THINK the gay penguin couples are "male/female" cause it's hard to identify penguin gender unless you get a close physical exam of the animal.
They THINK the GAY COUPLE is a straight couple cause the two behave as a male/female bonded couple would.
And by your lack of logic, you would have people go from "oh look! it's a mommy and daddy penguin" to "oh wait. they're both male? well I guess they're just doing that to protect themselves from non-existent zoo predators"...

Again, animals don't lose their instincts just because they're in a zoo.

So claimeth you, the person who refuses to look at what they really do.
Look. I realize you love to make things up to justify your view of the world. It's very convenient of you to pretend to "know" things and not seek the truth.

I've yet to see a male penguin carry a purse or wear a bolo.
Quote:
But if a male/female couple acted like this, THEY WOULD BE called a "heterosexual couple".
If a male/female couple bonded exclusively together, making a nest for the two of them together, and raised a child together, they would be called straight.
|
They would be considered "normal" because they were exhibiting normal behavior patterns.

The fact that you refuse to recognize the same behavior between a same-gender couple as "homosexual" only demonstrates the absurdity of the anti-gay mindset.
|
And your insistence in claiming homosexuality is normal and acceptable because animals have participated in homosexual acts is at least equally absurd.
