    Mercury pollution is turning the white ibis gay. A five year study by the University of Florida on the mating habits of the white ibis has concluded that depressed testosterone levels due to the mercury poisoning is responsible for declining birth rates and homosexual behavior in the birds. The scientist says that of all the birds he studied in places where there is no mercury pollution, none exhibited homosexual behaviors.

    What does this mean for humans who are exposed to mercury pollution?

    Very interesting. Hopefully some of the birds start swinging both ways to save their species....

    Perhaps it's nature's way of saying, "You're too fucked up by shit to reproduce, so have fun with your gay friends"...

    This made me lol. I don't have a problem with gays at all, but they'd probably all throw a fit even if this was a proven fact.
