[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being gay could actually be an evolutionary strategy.

I know of many a gay uncle who dote on their little nieces and nephews.   That gives extra resources to the offspring of the hetero sibling.  If the gay uncles had kids, their kids would be competing for resources with the niece.  And the gay uncle's genetics are basically idential to his hetero brother.  So he is doting on his own genes.

[b]This[/b]. Sorry , but yes, this is what the "gay" gene is selected for and it is [b]EXACTLY[/b] why homosexuality has survived, lo these millennia. It is distressing to me that rational, educated people cannot see this reality and accept it as a genetic advantage. Historically, the more aggressive hetero males would hunt and kill prey and fight off intruders--while the gay members of the tribe could help with child rearing, etc., and not be a threat to the available females. Homosexuals are here to bring beauty and stability to the human race. We would not have had the Greek and Roman Civilizations or the Renaissance period without them, just to name a few.[/quote]

Interesting theory. But why didn't evolution make it so the parents of the straight and gay children just had the straight child so more resources would be put toward raising that one child so it would survive and thrive, rather than split the resources among two children?[/quote]
