| Quote: | OSLO (Reuters) - The birds and the bees may be gay, according to the world's first museum exhibition about homosexuality among animals.
With documentation of gay or lesbian behaviour among giraffes, penguins, parrots, beetles, whales and dozens of other creatures, the Oslo Natural History Museum concludes human homosexuality cannot be viewed as "unnatural".
"We may have opinions on a lot of things, but one thing is clear -- homosexuality is found throughout the animal kingdom, it is not against nature," an exhibit statement said.
Geir Soeli, the project leader of the exhibition entitled "Against Nature?", told Reuters: "Homosexuality has been observed for more than 1,500 animal species, and is well documented for 500 of them." |

If being Hetero is part of a species, consider me ruler of the kingdom.

Yeah, and where's the banana dancing with the donut? That's what I wanna know. Who made this website, anyhow? The creators of The Teletubbies? Where's Reverend Falwell when you need him?

Hey zev, I know you like long, hard URL's, but you gotta fix the one in your OP.

I am just proud of Zev for finally opening up to us, albeit ever so subtly
