Completely incorrect.
"Animals show homosexual behaviour
Some three hundred animal species are found to show same-gender love making
Dr Bruce Bagemihl, a Seattle-based biologist, has spent the last decade investigating homosexual behaviour in the animal kingdom reports the London Sunday Times.
His detailed survey has indicated that homosexual behaviour may be as natural as heterosexual behaviour.
The study has lead him to believe that not all animal behaviour revolves around procreation. He was quoted by the paper as saying, "Animal homosexuality is a rich and multi-faceted phenomenon that is at least as complex and varied as heterosexuality - the lives of gay animals are far more diverse than we would ever have imagined.,"
The American biologist explained that some animals appear to be predisposed towards homosexuality and give the example of male bottlenose dolphins who pair off with other males during their youth. They never bond with a female even after mating.
Another species he cites are male humboldt penguins who sometimes form life-long homosexual relationships. They remain monogamous until one of the partners die.
Dr Bagemihl's study has yielded other examples such as king penguins who prefer same-sex mates even when unpaired birds of the opposite sex are available.
Examples from primates include the bonobo chimps who are generally promiscuous with partners of either sex.
He also cites an example of lesbian behaviour among grizzly bears who sometimes bond with each other raising cubs as a family."
You might want to do a bit research before making statements like that.
"I don't see why anyone should be told, or forced, to accept gays."
Or blacks, orientals, jews, handicapped people, etc. for that matter.
