Ok, I have a question.

How did sexes of animals and sexual relations between animals evolve?


Very slowly. At first there were probably just mating types among single
celled organisms similar to what we now see today.

Speculation. Wild guesses seem to be the hallmark of the
atheist/evo-cheerleader crowd.

Any experimental data to support this?

If you read this, I'll be happy to dig up the information you
are requesting here (PubMed does wonders)

There are a couple of interesting articles in the Public Library
of Science - Biology "new articles" list (with an easy to read
synopsis) that you should look at, including one that I've been
asking you specifically to comment on.

Are you familiar at all with the Human Genome Project and
the Hap Map Project? Human history will never be the same
now that we can see the various genomes for what they are,
products of biological evolution.

This includes sex in it's various forms, you know.
