Humans: The straightest in the animal kingdom?

Apparently, science ("Yes!" w/ fist pump) is confirming a belief long held by those who proudly wave a rainbow flag (or PFLAG): God is just a little bit gay. Or, maybe s/he's just gender neutral, or sex positive, or doesn't give a damn one way or another. This conclusion is based on the mounting (sorry 'bout that one) evidence that gay sex is rampant in the animal kingdom and is, in fact, more the rule than the exception. Although it is nice to hear this from peer-reviewed sources, I didn't really need any extra convincing. Just ask anyone whose grown up on or around farms. My father, who grew up in tiny towns in the rural south during the 50s and 60s (for chrissake!), has always known about gay animals. Ocassionally, a sow would be much more interested in mounting her female penmates than being mounted by the local boar. Dogs hump eachother all the time. We assume they're just expressing dominance, but we don't know what's going on in their little doggy brains. Yep - bonobos, penquins, dolphins, fruit flies, pigs, dogs, locusts, albatrosses, etc. Name any animal you want. There is a very good chance that it would lose to you at a game of Never Have I Ever, at least as long as you stay away from things that require opposable thumbs. ;^D

So, if God thinks gay sex is perfectly natural, why are humans so uptight about it?
