There is an interesting article in the Times Magazine about female-female pairs of albatrosses. This kind of research -- as the article states -- can be used by either side of the homosexuality debate. "See! It's natural!!" and "But animals are gross! They do immoral things like killing and fornicating! So homosexuality is still bad!"
That aside, though, it's an interesting look at sexual behavior in animals. It also briefly discusses the fa'afafine in Samoa, who are considered a third gender -- boys who choose to take feminine social roles and who are attracted to men.
