Anti-sodomy law invalid: 1500 animal species practice homosexuality

Homosexuality is practiced in over 1500 species of animals including lions, killer whales and even insects. Man’s evolutionary predecessors also indulge freely in gay love, a classic example being the bonobo apes that make love indiscriminately of gender. Below are some videos about homosexuality in nature – one from the National Geographic (a trustworthy source I’d presume) and three others of gay sex in lions, in donkeys, and oral gay sex in male moose.

A museum in Oslo exhibited homosexuality in nature and claims that some animals are also consistently homosexual in their lives proving that not only is gay sex natural, but homosexual lifestyles are too.

Homosexuality has been observed in most vertebrate groups, and also among insects, spiders, crustaceans, octopi and parasitic worms. The phenomenon has been reported in more than 1500 animal species, and is well documented for 500 of them, but the real extent is probably much higher.

The frequency of homosexuality varies from species to species. In some species, homosexuality has never been reported, while in others the entire species is bisexual. In zoos around 1 in 5 pairs of king penguins are of the same sex. The record is held by orange fronted parakeets, where roughly half of all pairs in captivity are of the same sex.

Why, homosexual couples are known to raise families in nature; especially birds, but of course after stealing eggs from the females they mate with.

Among birds, homosexual pairs obtain eggs from “one night stands”, and raise the chicks. Homosexual penguins, swans, geese, ducks and seagulls are known to successfully raise families in this way.

It appears that only homophobia, or anti-gay sentiments, are exclusively human and therefore unnatural!

The reason this is relevant is that many countries including India (IPC section 377) still carry the anti-sodomy law which was brought by Christian colonialists. The law criminalizes all sex “against the order of nature”, which according to the law’s description include any acts of oral or anal sex even amongst heterosexuals. The Delhi High court is now deliberating over whether to decriminalize homosexuality. In this context, I wonder how oral sex or anal sex can be considered unnatural if thousands of animal species practice them. Is the law even valid anymore against homosexuality?
