The study of homosexual activity in diverse species may elucidate the evolutionary origins of such behavior. Researchers are now revealing, for example, that animals may engage in same-sex couplings to diffuse social tensions, to better protect their young or to maintain fecundity when opposite-sex partners are unavailable—or simply because it is fun. These observations suggest to some that bisexuality is a natural state among animals, perhaps Homo sapiens included, despite the sexual-orientation boundaries most people take for granted. “[In humans] the categories of gay and straight are socially constructed,” Anderson says.

There is a better read about the entire homosexual topic at lemonparty.org
As far as homosexuality goes. There is no shortage of women. And ya it is pretty unnatural.
There are always difficulties when comparing human behaviour with that of other species. After all some species eat their own faeces, does that mean coprophilia is normal and/or natural to humans? That every human should do it?

Human is as human does, everything else is unhelpful in studying human behaviour.
