homosexuality occurs among animals as well
about proliferation, it is not the individual but the species that counts. think of gay people as providing important services to the species which would not be available if they were busy reproducing. traditionally, many shamans for example have been homosexual-- some in siberia even take a husband. and among some native american tribes homosexuals are seen as "magical" people that are gifted with special powers. this of course has gone to the dogs since the arrival of judeochristianity-- what a boring lot
