You never know what these "scientists" are going to come up with next, but this story gives some concern to caution and once again proves the validity of the Bible (KJV1611).
Now I don't exactly understand just what these "pheromones" are all about, but the implication here is that if you've been with a woman you must wash according to Leviticus 15:16-33 lest some virile heterosexual Christian man mistake you for a woman and be driven to "accidently" violate your rectum.

Billions of insects are having gay sex 'accidentally' say scientists
Research is suggesting insects who engage in homosexual acts have mistaken their partners gender
Heather Saul - Tuesday 22 October 2013
It’s all a case of mistaken identity, scientists researching the homosexual tendencies of billions of insects have concluded.
Scientists are now claiming the long observed practice of insects and spiders of the same sex mating is actually accidental, despite up to 85 per cent of male insects engaging in homosexual acts.
Instead the bugs are in such a rush to reproduce - one of the strongest evolutionary drives - they do not take enough time to inspect their potential mate’s gender, often leading to same-sex mating.
The collaborative study, published by Doctor Inon Scharf of Tel Aviv University and Doctor Oliver Martin of ETH Zurich University in the journal of Behavioural Ecology and Sociobiology, found spiders and insects have not evolved to properly discriminate in their mating choices.

“Insects and spiders mate quick and dirty,” Dr. Scharf said in August, before the study was published on 21 October. “The cost of taking the time to identify the gender of mates or the cost of hesitation appears to be greater than the cost of making some mistakes.”
In the study, researchers propose that insect homosexual activity actually occurs because males carry pheromones from previous sexual activities with other females, and it is this that may also attract a male insect to another male.
