Basically, why do gay people exist? Is it like some natural fail-safe mechanism to prevent society from collapsing due to surplus male competition for females?

Sexual deviancy arises because sexually over active species fuck more than sexually passive ones the same way car crashes happen when you want to go fast.

Not everything has an evolutionary purpose, all sorts of defects that reduce an individual's reproductive fitness crop up from time to time. Sometimes is a result of something going wrong genetically (Down's syndrome, for example), sometimes some environmental factor (like early childhood malnourishment) reduces fitness. And I don't see how any sort of "fail safe" that reduces fitness like that could evolve in the first place; besides both historical accounts and studies of all sorts tribal groups around the world show that homosexuality is a reproductive defect that crops up regularly in all sorts of societies and economic circumstances, not just overcrowded ones, or ones with lots of competition for women.

As for homosexuality, well whatever is causing it can't be a purely genetic trait. Identical twins obviously have the same genes, but if one twin is gay then it is about a 60/40 split on gay/not gay for the other twins. So some sort of other factor must be in play besides genes to explain it. Two of the better supported possibilities are birth order and hormonal changes in the mother (the more children a women has the more likely younger sons are to be gay, possibly due to intrauterine hormonal changes altering brain development) and early childhood trauma (homosexuals report that sort of thing happening to them at far higher rates than straight people), and both could be true.

Tribes that produced homosexuals were simply more competitive than ones that didn't.
Homosexuality in a tribe adds advantages that made the gene/hormonal factor survive. It was massively beneficial.
Why?
We don't know yet for sure. Theories range from women being protected from aggressive heteroid members, to gays having more patience raising kids , etc.
Every single human population on earth has 5-10% gay members.

isn't it true that it's been observed in animals though? or is that just some one-off occasion in data that was exaggerated?

This. If you are "super straight" as a man then your daughter could inherit that, making her bad at getting with dudes, ending your line. Solution: everyone is kinda bi and super horny. Nature finds a way.

>>16823155
Maybe its a way to cope with rejection by mates/lack of females in a given population.

Most likely just an intersex condition of the brain, caused by misfunctioning of sex development pathways like any other intersex condition.

Group selection. Same reason human females live past menopause unlike every other species. They contribute to the fitness of the group.

Fucking a tight hole is more pleasurable. It's also very pleasurable to see the orgasm caused by stimulating the prostate of the person on the bottom.

Polyamory/open sex greatly increases your social sphere via immediate, high-impact interactions (pun intended). Bisexuality (which is what most "gay" men actually possess), just translates into greater social reach by 'unlocking' the second domain and compounding the first. I also think homosexuality among underclassmen allows for hypergamy for upperclassmen, which is eugenic and benefits society at large.

Evolution isn't about perfection, it's about what works, and it sometimes doesn't work. I mean shit, sex is meant for reproduction but animals that don't reproduce asexually just care about the pleasure and don't even associate it with having children often killing them anyway, like dolphins or modern women.

what >>16823593 said
brain is developed male or female and any in-betweens affect your sexuality. if there is a mismatch between your body and brain structure - you get GD. pretty simple if you think about it.
the chance of gay offspring increases with each child you have, therefore it doesn't decrease the reproductive fitness since older siblings still have good chance to survive and the younger ones can improve group fitness - gay people help straight siblings

>>16823545
aw man why you gotta say the quiet truth out loud like that?

it ruins the message by the grooming gangs that control most media that brainwashes chumps like OP who literally are beyond clueless

>>16823155
>If evolution is real then how come nobody is perfect
You don't know what evolution is because you are assuming that everything has an evolutionary purpose.
Lol.
