Alfie, one thing you must be open to is the possibility that homosexuality is disordered. Although I’m all for keeping sodomy and civil unions legal, I think that America should halt for a second and realize that homosexuality is a disorder. We know this because studies done by Psychologists (even though the APA refuses to admit this) have shown clear studies that point homosexuality as a disorder. The premises of this thesis are the following.
Premis A) Homosexuality and Pedophilia have obvious links. In a study done by Journal of Sex Research, homosexuals compromise one third of child sex abuse cases. But the effect is a result of a cause, and the cause is from homosexuals having been molested themselves with 22% of lesbians and 46% of gays having been molested as children, according to Archives of Sexual Behavior. Further, in a study done by Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 20% of homosexual children have had sexual contact with men.
Premis B) Homosexuals live shorter lives than heterosexuals. This is on account of AIDS, promiscuity, and violence. A.P. Bell and M.S. Weinberg, which is a famous study used to support homosexuality, reported in Homosexualities: A Study of Diversity Among Men and Women that 43% of homosexuals have had sex with over 500 partners, and 28% have had over a thousand. This is clearly above the norm for heterosexuals. Journal of Interpersonal Violence reported that 31% of lesbians had reported incidents of physical abuse by their partners. Another study by Journal of Soicial Service Research[/] in a study of over a thousand lesbians found that over half had been abused by their female lover. In the book Men Who Beat the Men Who Love Them: Battered Gay Men and Domestic Violence the author reported that domestic violence among homosexuals is double that of heterosexuals. nternational Journal of Epidemiology reported:
In a major Canadian centre, life expectancy at age twentyfor gay and bisexual men is eight to twenty years less than for all men. If the same pattern of mortality were to continue, we estimate that nearly half of gay and bisexual men currently aged twenty years will not reach their sixty-fifth birthday. Under even the most liberal assumptions, gay and bisexual men in this urban centre are now experiencing a life expectancy similar to that experienced by all men in Canada in the year 1871.
Premis C) Suicide and Depression. Archives of General Psychiatry reported that homosexualsare 6.5 times more likely to commit suicide. Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology studied lesbians and found that 75% of them seeked psychological counseling of some kind.
