This is a display of dominance. The one who eventually gives up and lies down on his back with eyes diverted has submitted to the other. The "humping" ritual between the males is a friendly "fight" if you will over who is boss!! There is nothing sexual with this at all, and there is no such thing as homosexual dogs either. No worries!

This has nothing to do with sex but a lot to do with proving which is playing and over-excitement. It is not likely a dog will do it for dominance, but humping due to not being able to express himself in any other way. Humping behaviour can be trained out of a dog if this behaviour is not wanted.
