I found this article VERY interesting, being homosexual myself. The only thing I sort of had an issue with was the line about the ducks and geese where it says "It has been observed that the homosexual couple are often better at raising the young than heterosexual couples." How do they judge this in the animal kingdom?

My guess would be just the overall survival rate of the young being raised by the homosexual couple versus the survival rate of the young being raised by the heterosexual couple.  There may have been a statistically significant difference in these survival rates.  But I don't know because I'm not sure what studies are being cited and have not familiarized myself with any (yet).
