gollark: While I don't think "does evolution 'want' this" is the same thing as "is this good", if homosexuality was *really* bad for everyone it presumably would have been "evolved out" a while ago.
gollark: Just because something is *what evolution "wants"* or whatever doesn't mean it's actually a good thing in *other sets of values*.
gollark: Perhaps you just haven't evolved with discord-fast-reading genes.
