Anything not selected for will eventually go away due to genetic corruption.
Ok, I might be confused because I'm not scientifically minded. But how does sex between same sex benefit and evolutionary advantage since there's no continuation of the species involved, which means in a pure homosexual society for example it wouldn't exist long enough to evolve in the purest sense?

Your right there would be no genetic corruption, because there would be no reproduction and adaptation.

And to further that question, wouldn't it be logical to assume that if Homosexuality was a purely genetic condition that it will eventually die out due to the inability to breed without outside assistance (sperm donation etc)?

So the current question that comes to mind, is homosexuality something thats inherant in all of us as a recessive condition, and in I guess a minority of the species it comes to the forefront based on whatever condition fires it?

Just curious
