Riba Rambles:

You and me baby ain't nothin' but mammals
So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel

— The Bloodhound Gang, 1999

National Geographic may not have quite the same ring, but I think the narrator and music choices just make this video clip:

As far as evolutionary or biological advantages of homosexuality are concerned, Ian once observed something interesting about the simulation game Tribes:

[T]he survivability of the tribe as a whole went up if you had a small number of adults who were involved in procuring food and caring for children, but not producing children.
Dunno if this has any relevance -- Tribes is just a game, and not meant to be gospel. But it's interesting, anyway.
