I think Simon was horrified that he might have taken advantage of Kaylee. Heaven forbid he "appear indecorous."

Oh Jayne's Girl- you slay me.
Really though, nothing pisses me off more that a post that says "who cares?". (see below) We do, buddy and if you don't then stop reading!
Also- the great thing about JW is that anything is possible- and sorry, but mutual hair dressing is totally erotic, be it man-man, man-woman, woman-woman, woman-man....

Dear William- If you don't care, then why do you post here? Go find a thread you care about.
(Not being sarcastic, really.)

Give it a hundred years, you will most likely be killed off as evolution is not kind to those that cannot procreate(morally, at least).
an armed society is a polite society
While I agree with you that a show should not be contorted to a very small minority, I detect some flaws in your reasons why.
Will: Oh, s**t, you've got her on her soapbox now.
Actually, homosexuality is quite natural, occuring in about 10% of any given population. You no more decide to be gay than you decide to be short. The latest theroy is that it is determined by genetics.
As for the "natural world", there are gay animals. Wolves come to mind as do horses, like the one from Will & Grace. And there's always the queer giraffes

Of course, you are allowed to believe whatever you wish.

Jayne's Joan Collinsy tude towards Simon is just a cover for an affair that they're having, and Jayne's keeping it a secret from Mal, who he really loves.
Burn the ships and boil the fics, but you can't take the slash from meeeeeeeeeeeee! LOL!
Oh, crap it's Gundam Wing all over again!!!!

Simon's totally gay! In Jaynestown, when he was getting drunk with Kaylee and Jayne was off w/ his fans, Simon was being all mopey about Jayne! As the Television Without Pity recap pointed out, he was acting like someone who had just been dumped. And he's always giving looks full of longing to Mal and Jayne, but he just acts bored and uncomfortable around Kaylee. That boy's way gay and I don't even think he's that aware.
The HoYay factor on this show is very high, even more so than on Angel. But it's fun that way. 
Warrick: You didn't have to wound that man.
Mal: Yeah, I know. It was just funny.

Yeah, Jaynesgirlfriend, your still bitter, and I`m still an extremely conservative prick but I`ll try to be polite in this post.
First, you can make anything appear to be something other than what it is if you think about it the wrong way. That can go both ways.
Two, I`m an avid hunter, and I have yet to see a single wild animal exhibit homosexual behavior. The gene might very well exist, but it is a recessive trait, and would generally only be shown in an animal with both gay parents, which is unlikely that two gay sheep of opposite sexes are gonna have a roll in the hay! Now with a captive population, and possible human tampering, it is much more likely to happen.
Third, one of the things that bothers me is that many people think they are gay because its "in". I have met quite a few people that come out of a bad relationship with a person of the opposite sex, and assume it is because they are a (usually) a man, so they pull the ol` switch-a-roo, and poof! There gay! But they are quite often just as miserable or more with another man/woman.
Or they think they are gay because they mistake feelings of very deep friendship as love. They are quite similar feelings, at times.
As for the statistics, timeo, you don`t give a source either so I`m just as credible as you. And I doubt 2% of the population is truly gay, maybe 1%.
As for the hair, it is not always, or even usually, erotic. My sister does her friends hair, but she is VERY straight! Now if you show me Jayne putting Simons hair in pigtails, you might be on to something!

Your understanding of biology is clearly lacking a bit.
First of all, a recessive genotype can be expressed in children of parents who are both heterozygous (that is, the dominant allele is expressed, but the recessive allele is also present). This is why recessive traits very seldom die out completely. Since people who don't possess the trait can be carriers, they can hang on for a long time even if they're harmful.
Second, not all phenotypes are as simple as recessive/dominant. It might be necessary for one gene to have the right co-dominant relationship and another to be recessive, or any other combination.
Thirdly, I've already posted an article discussing how common homosexuality is among animals, so I don't see why you think your anecdotal evidence (based solely on animals you've hunted) is especially useful.
And back on topic: Firefly needs to do a crossover with Smallville. They could get in a fight over which show is gayer, and it could end with them rolling around in the mud, and...er...let's just say nobody would be left standing.

Oh, and while we're on the topic of biology and recessive traits: if a trait is recessive, that does not make it rare. Right now, count how many fingers you were born with on each hand. If your answer is 5, then congratulations, you are in possesion of a recessive trait. Yes, that's right. The gene for six fingers on each hand is Dominant.
