The information has not come from a single person. The information has come from thousands of scientists who have worked over 200 years. Bagemihl has only collected all the informations with proper and scientific documentation at one place. He took 10 years to do that, and even his most ardent critics cannot call his work unscientific.Lil Light Foot said:So, basically what you're saying is, you're getting this all from one single person.
See, that proves my point about you're theory not being scientific, for it to be scientific you need at least 5 different sources. You are working off one single book, that does not make him right, I have read a book where the author though that the English royal family and all their relatives along with various world leaders etc are all infact aliens originally from Mars. That was also a non fiction book, it doesn't mean he was right. He also provided various pieces of so called evidence to back him up, again that does not make him right.
It is very convenient that all these biologists happen to cover it up, it means that you can't provide any falsifiable evidence. You will also find that one person never stands alone, unless they are wrong. Usually even those that are wrong will be part of a minority, so there must be some other biologists out there to back up your book, so realistically if you're theory is correct you'd be able to find at least 2 other papers to back you up.
What good is the scientific institution if we can not depend on the extremely scientific work of a high profile scientist, who is praised by scientific journals like the 'nature' --- writes in a peer-reviewed and widely acclaimed book.

Don't forget that no scientist has ever disputed the work of Bagemihl. He published his work in 1999, and if weren't genuine his work would have been discredited doubtlessly. Bagemihl has created many enemies in the scientfic world, but they can't harm him only because his work is immaculate.
And then Bagemihl is not alone. More and more number of scientists are now beginning to report widespread same-sex behaviour in the wild. You can google about "Frans de waal", "Johann Roughgarden", and "Paul Vasey" among aothers.
I see no reason to distrust Bagemihl. You can go on living in your own world. Or after my giving such solid sources, you can now come up with what you know OR FUCK OFF!
