HOMOSEXUAL behavior seems to violate nature’s need for procreation, but recent research studies have found out that homosexual behavior in animals may be much more common than previously thought.

Several researchers have discovered that humans are not the only mammals that practice and express homosexuality and that evolution may have something to do with this behavior.

For instance, the University of Oslo’s “Against Nature?” was an exhibit last 2006 to 2007 that showed about 1,500 animal species that practice homosexual behavior, like in mammals such as bisons, bears and rats; in fish species such as salmon; reptiles like lizards; amphibians like frogs; and insects such as house flies.

Sa sikolohikal na aspekto, naaapektuhan ang haba ng atensyon, konsentrasyon, tamang pag-iisip at nagiging sensitibo.

“Hindi ba, kapag tayo ay puyat mabilis tayong mapikon at mainis sa ating paligid?” puna ni Gonzaga. “Mabilis din tayong mapagod at mawalan ng pokus sa ating mga ginagawa.”
