For most of history whatever your sexuality, you married and had children. Period. You also did whatever else you did, and maybe you had a terrible marriage, but that probably wasn't unusual for straight people for most of history either.

Actually no, historically large percentages of the population (whatever their sexuality), especially the male population, did not marry as it was very expensive to start their own household. That's one reason why so many gifts were traditionally given for weddings. Though you do have a point WRT divorce being very uncommon.

That... seems wrong, but I don't know enough about this to dispute what you're saying. :|

Let me expand my objection, homosexuality not only exists in humans but in many other animals, many of which do not have social stigma of homosexuality.

It may just be that in any system as complicated as sexual aim and expression, you will have variations like homosexuality.
