This is an interesting one...
on some theoretical evolutionary level, there's a part of me that agrees. Although I also think intuition is very different to logic, and really the desire to procreate is one that can be applied to either sexuality ; I believe the body alone is quite happy with sex, regardless of the outcome. It's the love and soul that lets you know it's right for you.
When I was young I thought having kids would be great, sometimes even now I think it would be nice to have an heir. I see my cousin's kids and they're wonderful, he makes a good father and there is a part of me that respects that as a gay man. Applying that to my own life would lead me to be unhappy in the long run though, as it's taken me a lot longer than some to find out who I am. I'm happy with my partner and it's almost like a daydream, like any fantasy, to imagine fitting in as a straight family man.
Before I shut up - my current boss met her husband after both being in bi/gay relationships seperately, so there is definitely a case for sexual fluidity past the teens and early 20s.
