The study found same-sex sexual behavior, both male and female, was more common in more social species. This suggests same-sex sexual behavior was selected for in social species.
The frequency of male, but not female, same-sex sexual behavior was also correlated with the frequency with which animals of the same sex attacked and killed each other. This supports the hypothesis that homosexuality evolved to mitigate male–male aggression in mammals.
