NS Issue 2737 Dec 7 2009 article "The Power of Same Sex Liaisons" contained this report. Would anyone like to clarify it for me

Quote: Take the Laysan albatross. These large, graceful seabirds establish breeding colonies on islands in the Hawaiian archipelago, and recently it emerged that in the Oahu colony over 30 per cent of the nesting pairs consist of two females. Female-female pairings have been observed in other birds, such as California gulls and roseate terns, but never at quite such a high rate. What's more, Lindsay Young from the University of Hawaii found that many of the albatross female-female pairs remain faithful over several years. They engage in mutual preening and even occasionally copulation, and, like female-male pairs, each year they raise a single chick. Both females will have laid a fertilised egg and randomly shunted one aside (Biology Letters, vol 4, p 323). Unquote

Why is the word "gay" handled so poorly in political science? What effect does this have on family and community economics?

Think of this in the way money can be married to people in certain ways by the number of partners, spouses they have and the relationship they have with them. This is not a joke to many people who probably have no concept of the fact they're being exploited.

Sexual Selection in Human !!

Our craving sexual gratification, our adoration to another partner and our attachment with our partner: these control the human mating game. Man are attracted to the feminie characteristic of woman(sexy and hot looking woman). If this is the case why homosexual still exist??

Why is homosexuality a factor in animals?

For a human or any other animal to be homosexual would mean that their genes would not get passed on.  Why is homosexuality still prevelent after millions of years of natural selection?
