Ode to the Lesbian Swans

Boston's beloved pair of swans -- feted by city leaders, residents, and tourists alike as one of the Hub's most celebrated summer attractions -- are a same-sex couple. Yes, scientific tests have shown that the pair, named Romeo and Juliet, are really Juliet and Juliet.

Massachusettes is spreadin' the gay! This proves it's contagious. Interspecies contagious, even.

If we make same-sex marriage legal in Texas, the swans will all turn gay!

Just watch.

Too funny. For the record, Konrad Lorenz noted in his book from the mid-70s, "On Aggression" that a variety of different types of geese will form life pairings with members of the same sex. He offered no explanation for this, but mentioned it amongst several observations. So, it doesn't surprise me that swans would also do the same thing. Beautiful.

Not to mention the necropheliac homosexuals ducks. They're into some freaky stuff them ducks are. http://education.guardian.co.uk/higher/research/story/0,9865,1432991,00.html
