I agree, I don’t look to animals for my behavior standards. Otherwise I’d be eating my own vomit and killing other people for their cheeseburger.
But my understanding has been that the homosexual behavior, so called, of animals, has not been actual sex. I am still awaiting word on the bonobos. Do female animals actually have orgasms? I know male animals do.
It would not change my opinion. It would just be a point of interest.

Very disappointing that this article spent very little time on the biblical purpose of marriage in their argument.
Just because your opponent doesn’t believe in your “sword of truth” doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use it.
liberals hump anything including chairs...
I know that, according to research Female macaques (I think it’s how it’s spelled), monkeys, have been shown to have orgasms, from both homosexual (I won’t get into it) and heterosexual interaction. The heterosexual encounters produced the orgasm about 20% of the time. To answer your curiosity. However, as I understand it, orgasms among female animals, as far as we know, is uncommon.
This thread has certainly taken a turn...hah.
“This thread has certainly taken a turn...hah.”
Yes, not trying to be gross, just trying to understand and be articulate in my arguments.
Thanks for the info.
No problem at all. I think the bonobo is the technical name for the same macaque (monkey) I was referring to. As far as what their lesbinism consists of, as far as I know, one female mounts another, but nothin oral (so far as I know). I don’t know the exact particulars, only some info from some studies. But hopefully that answers that as well.
P.S. There was a wild rabbit that used to mount my neighbors chickens and rooster, until my neighbor shot him, (it was an odd abomination to say the least), I was a kid at the time, and I only remember the neighbor and my dad talking about it, and how my neighbor was fed up with it. Animals don’t discriminate. People most certainly should be moral, not animalistic.
P.S. Good on you for homeschooling. I’m sure you do your very best, and I’m grateful. One more well homeschooled kid is one less indoctrinated kid. I’ve homeschooled 3 myself (not all the way through, though), so I appreciate your sacrifice. We’ve an important and sacred obligation to our posterity. Thanks again.
One reason is enough - it is unnatural.
Good points. Thank you for posting them to this thread.
I can appreciate that; hence the post. We all need some ammunition on which to draw when cornered into such a conversation. Hope it comes in helpful some day.
Good question. I should specify that anthropological studies have shown that female bonobo engage in same-sex genital stimulation.
To be honest, my knowledge of this is more of a bizarre factoid than a study of interest. I may be an Anthropology major, but I don’t feel any desire to study homosexuality in monkeys. Still, knowing it’s a monkey libs are referring to when they say there are gay animals opens up the question of whether gay humans fling poo like their simian peers.
