As for all people being bi, its not true as I'm gay and never fancied a woman!

You know, I was talking about animals in a general way. There can be and are exceptions in the animal kingdom. The majority of animals copulate with the opposite sex to pass on their genes (survival of the species is prioritary), which doesn't mean there aren't exceptions. In the same way, animals normally hunt/kill other animals in order to feed or to protect their territory but there have been reported situations in which some animals killed other animals with no apparent purpose. They just killed them and let them be, without eating them. This is not an animal's usual behaviour and since animals don't have our kind of intelligence we can't say they did it because they're evil or something like that. It's an exception to what normally happens in Nature which so far has puzzled scientists because it goes against animals' natural instinct.
In human beings homosexuality and heterosexuality occur naturally and are independent of whatever instinctive impulses we might have to procriate but that happens because we're intelligent and conscient of ourselves. We are able (thanks to our developed brain) to overcome , at least some, of our biological instincts. This is not the case with animals. Even if they mate with the same sex, the majority won't be able to avoid mating with the opposite sex.

I'm hetero and I've never fancied a woman either, which doesn't stop me from saying people's true nature is bi. However, like someone already said most of us are inclined more to one side or the other and end up completely excluding the other side. IMO this is a process that happens in our subconscious therefore we're not aware of it.
