I'd imagine female homosexuality should have a similar effect.
On the other hand, 'obligate' is a strong word to use for things as complicated as human behavior. Knowing several older male homsexuals with biological children via socially-imposed marriage customs, I don't think the effect is as large as many assume under many environments.
This is true, especially in pre-modern societies, and further supports the argument that we shouldn't be surprised by the high incidence of homosexuality.
