I thought the cross species section was interesting. Other than that, I already knew homosexual behavior wasn't uncommon in animals. My question is: "What does this have to do with homophobia?".

There is a correlation, but a correlation doesn't prove causation. Human brain devolopment is an extremely involved topic. There is not enough genetic information available to prove or disprove the hypothesis. I am quite positive that homosexuality is in some cases a cause of genetics, but if there were a specific set of genes that ALWAYS caused homosexuality, then humans would have shed that genetic abnormality millions of generations ago. Clearly there is a complicated psychological/genetic interaction going on. (I use the word abnormality because anything that deviates from normal generation to generation species reproduction is abnormal in all life, not because I find any moral problem with it)

I'm not one of those people, I have absolutely no problems with homosexuality in any way. Didn't even click your link. I just wanted to emphasis "wow a scientific claim cited on Wikipedia."

SSERIOUSLY ARE YOU JOKING. Because you know, everything you read on the internet is always sooooo true, especially wikipedia, you know?. There is obviously sometihng wrong with whoever thinks that homosexuality is genetic. Who you love is not genetic.
