A weird example that being gay is a part of nature

Aquarium discovers two 'gay' penguins

Wendell and Cass would be more comfortable in a Greenwich Village one bedroom apartment than their current home at the New York Aquarium.

The male penguins, each about 14 years old, can't get enough of each other. The couple has been together for the past eight years, and the two have sex with each other whenever they can, which is often.

Presumably penguins can tell the guys from the gals, but aquarium officials apparently PROMOTION

can't. For years they thought the pair was one of each. The truth didn't come out until aquarium staff carried out a blood test.

Angie Pelekedis, a spokeswoman for the aquarium on Coney Island, said: "They're one of the most dedicated couples in the penguin enclosure."

Penguin keeper Stephanie Mitchell added: "I was only seeing one mate with the other, but then one of the other keepers saw it happen the other way round so we did a blood test that proved they were both male.

"Cass tends to be a rather aggressive bird. Wendell is very nervous; always has been. He's on edge all the time. They're currently in a dispute with another couple over their nest. It seems to be one of the most desirable places in the penguin enclosure." >>



 
So why would they fight for a nesting area if they can't reproduce? I don't recall penguins reproduce asexually... I think they are just screwed up in the head..
 
And this proves what? These penguins were "straight" for the first 6 years of their lives so does that make homosexuality a learned or aquired lifestyle in the penguin community too? If your not comfortable enough with your sexuality that you need to use a couple of penguins as proof that man love is an acceptable lifestyle then that is your problem. Personally I don't care which way you or anyone else bats as long as they leave me out of it.

hmn, what you doing snooping around the gay.com news site? 😉

Seeing as these two penguins are in captivity I'd hardly claim them as good examples of anything in nature.

Besides, you know maybe they are just ugly penguins and can't get any of the women penguins to go for them. 🙂

My thoughts exactly!!!

Czar lives in a land where the women are world reknowned for being blonde bombshells . . . and he's surfing gay websites?

<Arsenio>Hmmmmmmmmmmm.</Arsenio>

Gosh, Czar, I knew you were queer, but I didn't know you were queer.
 
Perhaps he was just searching for site regarding gay penguins, and stumpled upon that site!:Q

Not sure if that makes it better but .........................


No I don't think it does

Being gay is not a part of nature.

That's exactly what I was thinking

Watch out though...you might get people offended. You better add something like "But there's nothing wrong with that" to the end of your statement..
 
Being gay is part of nature. There are these monkeys where the females of the species habitually rub their fun spots together. But, they also will mate with the male monkeys, so I guess they are technically bi. I forgot the name of the species, but I learned it in a college anthropology class and even watched a movie on it, so it must be true.

OMG!!! OH NO! AIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! NOOOOOO!O!OO!O!!!!

Those are bonobo monkeys.
 
There are a lot of things that are "part of nature" that aren't "supposed" to happen. Homosexuality is only one in a nearly inexhastive list of things that are like that.
 
Ummm....Why in the H@!! would they need a blood test to find out they were MALE? ....also how would a blood test PROVE it, why not look for the "bits and pieces"? I smell a bogus gay promotion story.

Ummm....because avian species don't have the "bits and pieces", at least not in the traditional mammalian sense.
 
Perhaps they were looking for estrogen (or the penguin equivalent) in their blood but instead found more testosterone (or the penguin equivalent).
