By functional reality, I mean the world we live in. Harbor such opinions, which many do, and it manifests itself as negative consequences for those who are homosexual in the form of violence, abuse (both verbal, physical, emotional, etc.), neglect, hatred, bigotry, etc. Try being an outspoken homosexual in the Bible Belt and you'll see my point. Or don't, because you'd likely end up dead....and I like you. I'd rather not see that happen.

In any case, I only said that his words were hateful. I can't presume to know if he intrinsically hates them or not. But his words tacitly endorse such behaviors if he doesn't learn to be more tolerant of such lifestyle choices, even it's merely on a philosophical level rather than an emotional one.

highly unlikely
its probably just a behaviour that was never selected against. For instance, in bison, some men mount MORE men than women during a mating season. However, the abundance of homosexual activity would not prevent the bison from mating.
Many other mammals use sex as a form of communication. 2 dogs will felicitate each other, bonobo monkeys have LOTS of gay sex, and in these groups, the sexual contact is purposeful.
As a form of population control it wouldn't work. One generation with the "homosexual genes" wouldn't pass those genes on. Its possible, I don't buy it though, at least as an explanation. Population control in a sense could be an outcome, but not the selective force, imho.

If there are homosexual genes, then it wouldn't be so that only homosexuals possess them, seeing as how homosexuals are born from heterosexuals.

Are not all homosexuals born from heterosexuals? 😕
I was going to say that, but some homosexuals are born from homosexuals. If a homosexual man has sex with a heterosexual woman, or vise versa, and have a homosexual child, then the homosexual child is born from a homosexual parent.
Just to avoid those details, I phrased myself differently.

Not necessarily. Many gay men have sex with women either to cover up thier sexuality or to try and be straight. Ask Devil King, he'll tell you.
A bisexual man is a man who enjoys sex with both men and women. He may still have a preference however. Ask SpearofDestiny, he'll tell you.

I never talk to SpearofDestiny, he's gay. 😆
