Yes, homosexuality is natural. Sure, it may not lead to procreation (lots of things don't, like wearing a condom or waiting until you find the "right one"), but that's another discussion. Natural just means natural.

Rape is natural? Do tell. So, we should just throw out things in nature such as pheromones that illicit a response no matter who is standing around? The animals were observed demonstrating homosexual behavior. There are things in nature that chemically generate a response. I do not buy hook,line and sinker that it is natural because animals demonstrate homosexual behavior. Fido likes to hump my leg. Sometimes my stuffed teddy bear. What gives?
