asexuality

It's more of a way of controlling the population.

Every species in the world does it. It keeps them from overpopulating an area. That's why there are so many homosexual people in china.

So I guess asexuality can be viewed in the same way.

While this hasn't been "technically" verified yet, I'm going to go out on a whim and say homosexuality is somewhat of a disorder...my theory is that over the years of evolution, the genes that give people their drive to reproduce have changed, consider homosexuality an evolutionary defect. The thing is, that's perfectly fine.

I'm not going to indulge because it's a touchy subject, but there have been numerous documented cases, just recently even, that have involved other species besides humans. There have been homosexual penguins, and last time I checked penguins don't f*ck out of passion. Evolutionary defect, or love for the same sex. You tell me.

Of course, humans have "emotions" and all that other crap, so it makes the whole scenario a lot more messy. If only monkeys turned gay, then all our problems would be solved, and we could discredit words of the Catholic church too!

Don't try to make a living in philosophy.

You're mixing up your cause/effect.

Eh, your right. I have that backwards. I didn't mean for it to sound that way. I mean that when an area becomes over populated people become homosexual to satisfy their sexual desires, but it also controlls population and causes it to go back to equilibrium.

But at least the people still have a desire for sex.
