I thought I had remembered something along those lines but could not recall where I'd seen it; it was "Evolution's Rainbow". And who's to say that there isn't some as-yet-unknown evolutionary benefit to homosexuality or bisexuality or transgenderism? It took a long time for us to figure out why sickle cell hadn't disappeared long ago; maybe there is some similarly hidden benefit to sexual and/or gender "deviations". Thank you, Dr. Weiss.
