Thread title changed in biology forum

In summary, there was a request to change the thread title 'Homosexuality' to something more descriptive. This was because one word thread titles are not good for search engine indexing and there were already similar threads with the same title. Some suggested titles were "Homosexuality and homosexual behaviour in animals" and "Neural basis of homosexuality". Finally, someone agreed to change the title.

Hello!
Quick request:
Someone changed the thread 'Homosexuality' in the biology forum to 'is there any evidence for homosexuality?', everyone seems to be in agreement that the new thread title is not suitable. I don't know who changed it as I was not informed about it. May someone change it back, please?

The thread title was changed to something more descriptive. One word thread titles are not good when it comes to indexing the site in a search engine (for example, there are probably many threads with the title 'homosexuality'). So, you can have it changed if you come up with something more descriptive.

I had noticed that at the bottom of the page was some links to similar threads, they too had the title homosexuality.

Perhaps a better title would be "Homosexuality and homosexual behaviour in animals"

Thanks for the responses.
Someone recommended Neural basis of homosexuality, or something similar, which I think may be quite good.
