A Polish zoo has been condemned by politicians for acquiring a "gay"elephant called Ninio who refuses to mate with female companions.

Michal Grzes, a conservative councillor in the city of Poznan in western Poland, said the animal preferred male company and would probably not procreate.

He said it meant the city's massive investment in a new home for the animals had been a waste of time.

"We didn't pay 37 million zlotys (£7.6 million) for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there," said Mr Grzes, who is from the right-wing opposition Law and Justice party.

"We were supposed to have a herd, but as Ninio prefers male friends over females how will he produce offspring?" said.

The head of the Poznan zoo said 10-year-old Ninio may be too young to decide whether he prefers males or females as elephants only reach sexual maturity at 14.

How do they know that the elephant is really gay? Maybe he's just shy when approaching to females or maybe also just bi-curious?

Hey, laugh at our right-wing politicians, if you're going to laugh at anyone.

Wow! This just fits perfectly with an inside joke that I know (and helped create), which included a gay elephant.

Probably a gay-elephant thing.

It's an elephant fisting thing.

Reminds me of that song by Corky and the Juice Pigs, called "Eskimo". It's hilarious. :)

Agreed. That right wing conservative guy is making an issue from nothing.

And if that elephant is too young to be sexually mature, then it most likely means he's simply playing in that photograph.

Maybe he's not gay, maybe he just suffers from sexual anxiety.

Maybe this is what they had in mind when they called the elephant gay. :mischief:

Well then he shouldn't be mating until age 18 at least. That would be rape.

UNDER 18=CHILD!!11! :mad:

And any elephant that mates with him is a filthy paedophile. Even if they're the same age.

Nah, a prostitute who has sex with such a young elephant is still a dirty pedo.

I should have ordered escorts @ 16, I looked easily 19 or 20 so they wouldn't have asked any questions. Then, afterwards I'd tell them my true age & demand my money back x2 otherwise I'd cry rape & off to jail they'd go. :devil:

Not necessarily, such as if the prostitute was paid to do such a thing, which would be assumed (since they're a prostitute).

Are we seriously dicussing pedophilic elephant prostitues here?

Im sure that breaks at least a dozen forum rules.

We're also mocking a certain poster who genuinely believes such things, so there's a few more rules.

Under 18 = CHILD! Having sex with a 17 year old is exactly the same as having sex with a 9 year old! If a prostitute has sex with a 17 year old, even if she's paid, has no knowledge of the age of the person she's having sex with, and is underage herself, then she is a filthy paedophile! :rant:
