"Gay" penguins spark protest

1 hour, 4 minutes ago

BERLIN (Reuters) - A plan by a German zoo to test the sexual appetites of a group of suspected homosexual penguins has sparked outrage among gay and lesbian groups, who fear zookeepers might force them to turn straight.

"All sorts of gay and lesbian associations have been e-mailing and calling in to protest," said a spokesman for the zoo in the northwestern city of Bremerhaven on Friday.

He said the zoo concluded the penguins might be gay after seeing male penguins trying to mate with other males and trying to hatch offspring out of stones.

German media reported that female Swedish penguins would be brought to the zoo to test the theory, but when word got out about the plan, the phones started ringing.

"Nobody here is trying to break-up same sex pairs by force," the zoo's director Heike Kueck told public broadcaster NDR. "We don't know if the three male pairs are really gay or just got together because of a lack of females."

Wonder if penguins have a shrinkage factor? Do the females just wait by the shoreline and let out a roar??

I haven't laughed so hard all week.

They may or may not be gay, but they are certainly "soft" if you get my drift.

Trying to hatch stones. If that isn't a perfect visual for what's wrong with the whole notion of "gay orientation" then I don't know what is.

Rich, rich rich!

Shalom.

Does anybody know the exact day that Hell was loosed and took over the earth?

Jan 21, 1993?

Shalom.

......I'm so confused.....

.......a group of suspected homosexual penguins has sparked outrage among gay and lesbian groups, who fear zookeepers might force them to turn straight.

I don't know if I should laugh or cry. This is so stupid. Maybe the "gays" should start an "adopt a suspected gay penguin" program or something.
Damn! Gay Penguins!
(Just when you think you've heard it all...........)
LOL

Next they'll be teaching the little penguins that it's perfectly normal to be a gay penguin.

Not until they figure out those stones won't hatch and start adopting.

Shalom.

Paul Lynde was one FUNNY man. I still remember the exchange:

Q: If you give a dog a pat on the head it will wag its tail. What will a goose do?

Lynde: Make him bark.

Shalom.

[ArGee]

What "sexual orientation" does that make my dog?

Omnisexual.

Shalom.

You neglected to mention that the reception was held at Le Gai Pinguin, once White Plains NY's most fashionable boite de nuit. Thanks to you, I finally know the reason for the exclusive club's existence.

[ArGee]

If one objects to a dog humping a garden hose, does that make you a 'hose-o-phobe'?

If you have an irrational fear of those who don't like homosexuals are you a phobophobe?

Shalom.

Jan 21, 1993?

Good guess!

"When satan and his followers were cast out of heaven? Just a guess."

No doubt that hell has been contesting for control over the earth since that very day; but I believe it was sometime in the 20th century that evil spread all over the earth as the worst wars in man's history took place, abortion became a "right", narcissism became a value, patriotism became a crime, marriage became a game, the Courts became God, and almost every crime of perversion, pornography and sexual deviancy became legal.

I haven't laughed so hard all week.

Me either...I'm busting a gut here...lol...this is just too funny.

[massgopguy]

Maybe they are stupid.

[nicmarlo]

the absurd gay follies continue into the animal world now.

[EdReform]

The key word is fear. Homosexual organizations and pro-homosexual activists constantly use the 'homosexuality exists in the animal kingdom, therefore it's genetic and normal' arguement, so this experiment is a very real threat to their propaganda machine.

Boy howdy!
