erm, I hate to be a party pooper, but where does it say that same-sex
sexuality in animals is normal? In fact, where does it give any
incidence rates or other statistice at all?
Just makes you feel goog that you aren't alone does it?
Correct me if I am wrong but you havent made any point at all in
respect of the normalcy or otherwise of homosexual behaviour in humans.
Or did I miss it? Just self-justifying froth I suspect.
And not a statistic anywehere.
Nope, not here either.

Nor here. Not a one.
lets see you address the point that was actually being discussed. And
some serious support for whatever point you think you are trying to
make would prevent you looking pretty silly Douglas.

Evidence? Silly boy. Or does do you feel threatened by anyone who takes
a rational and normal approach to sexuality? Seems you feel the
compulsion to automatically insult and denigrate so you dont have to
actually address the point which was made.
Since I am sure you would have provided evidence that homosexuality or
bisexuality is normal, one assumes there isn't any, in which case, you
would be better advised to practice that hermetic discipline of
remaining silent.
I sure hope someone teaches you how to tidy your posts up Douglas.

Ah, the old 'projection' ploy is it? I can see a London bus is dirty so
it means I need washing. Is that right Douglas?
A bit wimpy for a serious argument...
