Shumen, Bulgaria - A Bulgarian farmer is demanding substantial damages in court after claiming the prize-winning pedigree pig he bought from a breeder was homosexual.
Galen Dobrev, 43, told the court: "It's a disgrace, all he was interested in was other male pigs."
The farmer took pictures of the gay pig to prove the 220-pound boar was homosexual and had fellow farmers testify on his behalf as to the pig's sexual preferences.
He told the court that when his fellow farmers heard about the gay pig it had also been impossible to sell him - and in the end he had turned the animal into sausages.
But the breeder who sold the pig claimed that the farmer had acted too soon by making pork sausages, and said that if he had waited until the pig was sexually mature he would have found it performed perfectly normally. - Ananova

There are people in Southern California who would pay good money for that pig.

What's wrong with a pig being gay? I thought all gays were pigs!

What's wrong with a pig being gay? It's just not kosher.

The man is missing his entrepreneurial calling.
I'm sure there's a huge market in the Castro District for "sausages made exclusively from gay pigs". Serve 'em a variety of ways: on a stick, and of course in buns.
Really, he missed a major opportunity here.

I suppose this will now be used as evidence that homosexuality is normal. My guess is the pig breeder was REALLY into pork.

They're watching this case closely in Massachusetts.

To surmise that there exists
"gay" animals in the world ignores facts like dominant males in a herd, the influence of "zoo" conditions (i.e. long term prison incarceration), other biological functions all males go through and the very definition of same-sex preference...not to mention animals allowing themselves to be painfully sodomized and avoiding their fight or flight instincts is a creation of homosexual propagandists.
Guess which persuasion "scientist" Bruce Bagemihl leans?
