Im more amazed at the fact that there are gay penguins.

i seriously doubt there are gay penguins

i looked all over for photographic proof that it is true and i cannot find any evidence

therefore i am going to assume this is little more than a fantasy concocted purely to push an Agenda ...

i dont care if your mad at my opinion, show me the evidence

pics or it DID NOT happen!

Preach!

I remember that gay dog crap that started like four years ago.
Everybody was like "Oh yay, it shows that its okay to be gay in nature and all that other crap"
When they were asked for proof.... well you wouldn't be surprised.

Who says they're not roommates?
Me and my best buddy found a kitty when we were kids and we took it to his home to care for. We weren't gay though...
So is there a protocol to establish gayness in penguins???
And if so, was this applied at the Zoo?

How do we know this is not a story made up by Anti-Gay people so they could eventually 'bust' the story and act as if the Gay community is trying to lie about the 'naturalness' of being gay?

You know, it's one thing to close your eyes and ears to well established science.

It's another not to even have the will discover the world and all its mysteries.

You say ...

"Na na na na na na na na there's no such thing as a gay penguin cause I've never heard of it before."

Let me introduce you to the wonders of this thing called a search engine ...

Had you taken the time to use it you would have discovered that this isn't even the first documented such case.

en.wikipedia.org...

Denial, not just for homosexual penguins any more.

Seems to me that the zoo keepers are anthromorphising the penguins. Male and female penguins both hatch and rear and this behaviour is a product of their survival mechanism. Often parents will take turns hunting for fish while one maintains the eggs in freezing temperature.

These two penguins may have nested together, are dominated by alpha males that horde the females and have developed a default association.

It is odd that while they have the compulsion to reproduce as indicated by hatching the so called abandoned egg yet they maintain the abstraction of an alternative live style.

You might say that these penguins are ethical homosexuals instead of being greedy bisexuals.

homosexual means sex

that means i need proof they have sex together

laying together cuddling is NOT sex, and is only indicated of a Good friendship

see in penguin world, buddys may be allowed to cuddle and its not considered gay (we dont know their sociology)

so either you supply evidence of sexual relations between the two, or we have no choice but to consider this entire report bunk...

look with some legit proof ill accept it and move on with my life no big deal lol

As we speak the bible boinkers are flipping through furiously in an attempt to find a passage about penguins.

By the end of the day, ... the fable of Sodom and Gomorrah will be loosely re-translated as a morality tale taking place in an ancient wildlife refuge.

I've never seen male penguin couples at it, but at the Melbourne zoo there were a pair of male giraffes who had a long term relationship.

The maleness of both was very obvious and they were quite uninhibited about energetically enjoying there romance in front of the crowd. Naturally this led to a lot of inquisitive children and red-faced parents.

I'm sorry I never had a camera back then, so don't have any gay giraffe sex to show you. But perhaps you'd prefer penguin porn anyway.

Spend time on a farm and you will see alot of same sex animals having or attempting intercourse. I've seen cows 'do' each other nearly daily. Dolphins are known to have same sex shagging, and they are one of the only creatures besides us who do it for pleasure.
If you bother to look into, you'll see alot of expamples and studies on this. I couldn't be bothered researching as Ive seen it with my own eyes and quite frankly its common knowledge.

People who object to same sex relationships are simply FEARING the idea GAY, and we can all guess the reasons why they are scared.....

Why does anyone care who sticks what where with whom and how?
This is a nice story of two males penguins that are acting out their natural instincts to bond and to nurture, and look what happened out of it, the miracle of life

Congrats to the new daddies.

Seems more to me that this pokes holes in the 'theory' that nobody is born gay, and that homosexuality does not occur naturally. As, to the best of my knowledge, penguins don't have "stress issues" requiring them to do drugs with gay prostitues, nor have they been "indoctrinated to accept the homosexual lifestyle".

At least, I'VE never seen any penguin gay pride parades.

well id have to say lmao. . . . are you serious two penguins are both male and near each other so they are homosexuals. . . . all you gay is genetic advocates are seriously reaching here. . . .

Couldn't one argue that this is evidence of homosexuality being a product of an unnatural environment?

So, basically, you're telling me that you will become gay if you are placed in an unnatural environment?

Hope it makes people think about homosexual couples raising a child is better then the child being rejected.

S&F

My man/woman,

You hit the nail on the head. Couples raising other children is better than children left outside alone to starve or to take drugs.

If it's 'well established science' you shouldn't have a problem providing the well established documentation.
As far as your wiki link is concerned it also states:

"...In 2005, Roy and Silo separated, after some six years of paired behavior, with Roy remaining single. Silo found another partner, a female called Scrappy,[2] but became single again in 2006...."

So was Silo a confused heterosexual or a confused homosexual?

It's a cute story, but I smell propaganda which can eventually be used against either side of the debate.

Thanks much for the best laugh of the night, amongst all these witty comments

The best part is you apprently went googling for photographic proof

somebody stop me

I'm just imagining the search string...... "penguins" AND "gay" AND sex" OR "photographs" AND "revealing"

Widen your eyes. Go google. Go read acclaimed research. NOT just penguins. The whole animal kingdom.

Humans are animals too. What applies to penguins, giraffes, dogs, applies to us. WE ARE ANIMALS TOO, WITH supposedly-more DEVELOPED MINDS. Don't try to make-yourself-holier-than-thou and say "just because we're human, we cannot be gay and being gay is a bad thing."

Maybe the penguins aren't gay, just two best friends raising another egg. But go do more research, and you'll find other examples, not just in the aviary kingdom, that are similar.

Look, the science is there for likesexual and bisexual behavior within numerous speices of the animal kingdom all over the net for anyone who choses to look at evidence without preconceived and learned moral abstractions.

Look for it don't look for it it's all the same to me.

Of course its a lot easier to ignore the things which negate our beliefs, especially for those who's egos and life meanings are heavily invested within.

What it does open the door for is that people could technically make drugs that rewire you to either be gay or not to be gay, in which case others will feel offended making is sound like a disease to be cured. Yet, the simple fact is that if we were to call anyone with a mutation a disease, then we are all diseased.

I get what you're saying, good point, but I conjured up the plot to X-Men 5: The Gay Genome Cure, in my head.
