Have you heard the latest? An alleged gay penguin couple is raising “their” baby penguin genderless. I kid you not.
This is how the headline reads: “Gay penguins at London aquarium are raising ‘genderless’ chick. The 4-month-old, who has two moms, will be the first Gentoo penguin at Sea Life London Aquarium ‘not to be characterized as male or female.'”
Seriously? This is a story on NBCNews.com?
For the benefit of those who read the headline only, the baby penguin actually has a mom and a dad.
This is not the immaculate penguin conception.
This is not a modern-day miracle.
In a million, trillion years, two female penguins will never produce a baby penguin. Count on it.
[…]In “A Queer Thing Happened to America,”I documented the case of Roy and Silo, the allegedly gay penguins who became the subject of an illustrated children’s book.
The book was called “And Tango Makes Three,” by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell, based on the story of these penguins who lived in a New York City zoo. The book also tells the story of the baby penguin they “adopted.”
But in a fascinating sequel to the book (a sequel that has not been added to this children’s reader), one of the “gay” penguins ended up leaving his partner and taking up with a good-looking female penguin from California – and fathering a chick. So much for being gay.
[…]As gay scientist Dr. Dean Hamer once wrote (claiming there’s not even a good animal model of heterosexuality), “Pigs don’t date, ducks don’t frequent stripper bars, and horses don’t get married.”
Enough said.
