Thanks for the clarification my friend, I probablly should have said "in some cases"; In
some cases, a dog will hump a couch or a person if it's horny (and maybe even another dog, even if it is another dog of the same sex). But let's go with this reasoning. Charlatan says that dogs use sexuality as a means to express their domiance. If this is the case, then a person cannot conclude that animals are homosexual just because they do sexual things with other animals of the same sex. Therefore, people cannot justify/condemn the actions of a human based on what an animal does. Apprently, there are a whole different set of sexuality rules for animals (although, I suppose it is safe to say that some people use sexuality as a means to assert their dominance).
