This is smart, though. If males are always willing and females are less so, it makes perfect sense for males to engage with each other.

I don't think this is specific to giraffes? I've seen sheep do the exact same thing.

After a duel, it is common for two male giraffes to caress and court each other. Such interactions between males have been found to be more frequent than heterosexual coupling. In one study, up to 94 percent of observed mounting incidents took place between males. The proportion of same-sex activities varied from 30 to 75 percent. Only one percent of same-sex mounting incidents occurred between females.

They weren't fighting for territory or females or anything. They were fighting to see who tops

It's as if every time there was a same-sex bar fight the fighters went home together afterwards and fucked.
