Same sex desire helps bonding with people of the
same gender.
Dr Fleischman said: ‘From an evolutionary
perspective we tend to think of sexual behavior as a means to an end for
reproduction.
‘However, because sexual behavior is intimate and
pleasurable, it is also used in many species, including non-human primates, to
help form and maintain social bonds.
‘The results of our study are compelling because
using two very different methods, they arrived at the same conclusion.’
‘Humans are
among a group of animals who have sex for many reasons, not just to reproduce.
‘Reasons can include pleasure, a reward, a way of
saying “please be nice to me” or exerting dominance.
‘It’s very complex, but it’s clear… the ability to
engage sexually with those of the same sex or the opposite sex is common. In
humans, much, if not most of same-sex sexual behavior occurs in those who don’t
identify as homosexual.’
Their research is published in the journal Archives
of Sexual Behavior.
