Those of us who have no problem with accepting that homosexuality is normal for those who find themselves attracted to their own gender, don't need additional "proof from the animal kingdom at large. Those who will never accept human homosexuality as it is, will not be swayed by such proof.

They exhibit as 'gay,' build nests, try to mate and seem to be partners, same sex penguin partners have been noted at other Zoo's. My beef is that people can't accept a positive outcome (and an area possibly for research) without acting like children and resorting to name calling. Hardly a day goes by when I can't read an article or look at a youtube video without some hater, probably some weedy redneck making a homophobic comment..........

Maybe it's just my scientific background but this sort of thing makes professionals roll their eyes is all. I've read reports of male Wood Duck companions but I just doubt the BBC is all. I have no problem with the issue, it's America and everyone gets their shot to be themselves but I seriously doubt how "gay" animals are and it just seems like poor science and propaganda. The article is very well-written though, I'm not trying to be a hater, honest. I'm just saying that it's hard.... More

why won't this sort of thing get mnn to be taken seriously. Surely this increases the chances of Penguins reproducing in captivity which is good for 'mother nature'?
Secondly the assumption from another poster that all gays have butt sex is ignorant and also shows how little you know about penguins reproductive organs.

This sort of thing isn't going to get MNN represented seriously.

Homophobia should go back to the 1950's and die. Both of my parents are gay penguins and they did a fantastic job raising me and my adopted sister.

why do people feel so threatened so much to write anti-gay comments (irony excepted) about a couple of sweet penguins. Is this site just for children or do adults post on here as well?

That's so nice of these little penguins to be so caring and loving despite the fact they are going to burn in hell for all of eternity with the rest of the gay animal kingdom. :o(

God hates these queer penguins.

Then you need a different God.

That's what motivated me to join, because we need to bridge the gap and have an open dialogue, and I'm just saying things like this aren't going to help that. Once again, interesting article, not being a hater, just throwing in my 2 cents into the discussion. Cheers.
