Australia ruling party endorses gay marriage

.
I don't understand the morality argument. Being gay is not a choice, it is how people are born, so by denying them rights, it is the same as denying someone rights due to the color of their skin. How is this moral to deny someone rights for something they're born with and doesn't affect their intellect?

I'm not gay btw. I love my women.

Then that means we should give pedophiles the right to molest young children since pedos are born that way?
 
. . .
You want to remain the only gay in the village? :)

I'm not gay, i'd be the last person that anyone would consider a homo, but again people like you who are advocates of homosexuality and its spread can do no better than resort to personal attacks.

If you are the only gay in your village in india, then why do you need to tell me?

But gays aren't doing anyone any harm. Who are 2 males hurting if they are attracted to each other?

Is this very common among your countrymen? That you people support things without even bothering to understand the negative aspects? I pity your ilk.

I just wanted to post the video buddy, it is just a joke.
I dont think you are gay, nor do I mind if you are. Cheers.

I am amazed by your logic........
You are blindly opposing gays based only on your faith......

Do you know the difference between rape and sexual intercourse??
One is forced and the other is mutual....and in case of minors, it is regarded as rape even if it is mutual.....why??
Because minors are not considered to be mature enough to give consent i.e in simple terms, they can be enticed or forced easily.

The same above logic applies to pedophiles....even though pedophiles are born that way.....you need to consider that their act is causing harm to anyone or not........since children are considered incapable to give consent or can be forced easily, therefore the act of a pedophile is automatically considered to be causing harm to the child.

BUT, this is not the case for Gays.....here two adult persons are looking for a kind of relationship(whatever may it be)..............there is a basic difference......try to understand(USE the grey matter you have)

The point that FairAndUnbiased made was that homosexuality is natural and therefore it should be legal, however what you and other homo sympathizers fail to understand is that homosexuality and pedophilia have a very strong connection, majority of pedos turn out to be homos, and both are equally harmful to society. Many reputable and reliable sources confirm my beliefs.

BUT, this is not the case for Gays.....here two adult persons are looking for a kind of relationship(whatever may it be).

Both homosexuality and pedophilia have a strong connection, also the disgusting homosexual behavior and their sexual activities put not only themselves at risk but others around them as well.
 
.
Whether someone is gay or not is their own internal affairs. I don't usually give it much thought.

And in principle, all citizens should have the same rights regardless of race/religion/orientation etc.

Just my opinion.
 
.
actually that is not correct, statistics show that there is more sexual assault towards opposite sex, then those involving the same sex, even in regards to children. their goes your theory and supposed proof of it being a gay problem.

the only way your claim would come close to being true, is that statistically men are found to be responsible for it moreso then women.

rapist have more to do with pedophiles then pedophiles have sumtin to do with gay people, and in a country where you think its ok for honor killing when a man rapes a women, the women is punished, i cant even begin to pathom your problem with gay people
 
.
This is great news and long overdue. Gay people in Australia can already adopt children and have spousal rights, this is just the final brick in the wall that needs to be removed.
To the people who dont think homosexuality is not natural I can only say this to you;
Humans are a product of millions of years of evolution on this planet. We share 98-99% of the same genes as a type of chimpanzee called the Bonobo. The Bonobo is Human Sapien's closest living relative on this planet. Have you ever seen a Bonobo in action? Some monkey pick ticks off each other to bond, Bonobos have sex. They have sex day in day out, both straight and of the homosexual varieties. In fact all great apes (all chimps, gorillas, orangutangs etc.) have documented same sex encounters.
Trust me on this - There is no coincidence that the creatures we share 98% of genes with just happen look and behave just like humans.
So basically being gay is not just normal and natural it is hard wired into our DNA.
BTW I am a straight white man who has a passion for removing discrimination in society. I dont think this will be passed into law though, the politicians in this country are out of step with the more liberal populace.

Statistics? What statistics? And no, my argument remains valid, your theory goes out the window.

Where did anyone state that that is ok? Quote me otherwise your bullsh!tting.

Below i address all of your questions and validate my argument regarding the disgusting homosexual behavior and the harmful affects of homosexuality to society.


My argument regarding Homosexuality and its negative impact on society

The Homosexual lifestyle is unhealthy, and harmful not only to homosexuals, but also to the people around them and to society as a whole. It has been proven through extensive scientific research and studies conducted by reputable sources and notable institutions such as the CDC (Center for Disease Control), NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), NARTH (National Association for Research & Therapy of Homosexuality), and many other reputable sources and medical research that supports my argument; homosexual behavior is unnatural, unhealthy, harmful, and as a result is the cause of spread of many STD's and related diseases.

Homosexuals and Drug/substance abuse

#1."The findings of a study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry (December 2003) suggest higher incidences of illegal drug usage, alcoholism, psychological problems, and violence in the gay community than in the general population.

"Gay men and lesbians reported more psychological distress than heterosexual women, despite similar levels of social support and quality of physical health," the researchers reported (p. 556).

The controlled, cross-sectional study was conducted in both England and Wales. No European study in mental health, according to the researchers, has ever before recruited over a thousand gay and lesbian participants.

Surveying a total of 1,161 men (656 self-identified gay, 505 self-identified heterosexual) and 1,018 women (430 self-identified as lesbian, 588 self-identified as straight), the researchers said their main goal was "to compare psychological status, quality of life and use of mental health by lesbians and gay men with heterosexual people."

The researchers found that homosexual males and females both tended to score higher on scales of psychological distress than did their heterosexual counterparts. Further, they were found to be more likely to have used recreational drugs and to have inflicted deliberate harm upon themselves. Gays of both genders were also found to have consulted mental health professionals more frequently than the straight participants.

Additionally, the researchers found that the lesbian participants were the most frequent victims of physical intimidation and violence. Lesbians were also found to be "more likely than heterosexual women to drink excessively."

But bullying at school, the study noted, was reported no more often by gay men than by heterosexual men. Reports that gay men and lesbians are disproportionately vulnerable to school harassment "are often taken at face value," the researchers noted, with researchers failing to draw a comparison to heterosexual students, who--at least in this study--were found to suffer similar high rates of school bullying and harassment."
Study Indicates Gays and Lesbians Prone To Psychological Symptoms and Substance Abuse

#2."The complex relationships between recreational non-injection
drug use and HIV sexual risk behaviors have been documented
throughout the epidemic.
The purpose of this study was to (1) assess the
extent of non-injection recreational drug use among gay and bisexual
men frequenting gay social venues, as well as to assess recent initiation
of substance use, especially "club drugs"; and (2) document the interaction
between drug use and risky sexual practices. Street recruitment
methods were used to administer a survey to 202 gay or bisexual men recruited
at ten gay social venues in New York City. The majority of participants
reported substance use, and more than half reported the use of
drugs other than alcohol. Participation in gay social venues such as bars,
dance clubs, and bathhouses was associated with more substance use.
Polydrug use, participation in gay venues, and HIV status were found to
be associated with unprotected behaviors while under the influence. In
multivariate analyses, the use of inhalant nitrates and alcohol were found
to be the two substances that best predicted unprotected oral and anal
sexual behaviors.


Both recreational drug use and HIV sexual risk behaviors continue among
gay and bisexual men as we approach the third decade of AIDS.
In light of
treatment advances for HIV and the potential for viral mutation and drug resistance,
these unsafe sexual practices, which may be influenced by drug use,
present even greater threats to the long-term health of both HIV seropositive
(HIV+) and seronegative (HIV) gay and bisexual men
(Halkitis & Wilton,
1999a; 1999b). Specifically, the emergence of a specific set of drugs, known
colloquially as "club drugs" because of their association with gay social venues
(dance clubs, sex clubs, circuit parties, bathhouses, bars), poses an immediate
threat to the gay/bisexual community. These club drugs influence the
sexual behaviors of users because they are used in environments in which sex
is the primary objective of participation
(Bochow, 1998; Klitzman, Pope, &
Hudson, 2000; Lewis & Ross, 1995; McKirnan & Peterson, 1989; McKirnan,
Ostrow, & Hope, 1996; National Institute on Drug Abuse, 1999; Parsons,
Halkitis, Stirratt, & O'Leary, 1998)."

#3."IMPORTANT NOTE from the following information: Sexual Orientation
• 97.1% of adults identified themselves as heterosexual or straight, while 1.9%
self-identified as gay, lesbian or homosexual, and 1.0% as bisexual.


A growing body of research indicates that health disparities exist between
gay/lesbian/bisexuals and heterosexuals.
For the first time, population-based estimates
of sexual orientation differences in adult health are available in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. This report used data collected for the 2001-2006 Massachusetts
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System surveys to compare self-reported health
behavior and status among (n=38,910) heterosexual/straight, gay/lesbian/homosexual,
and bisexual adults ages 18-64. Most (97.1%) self-identified as heterosexual or straight,
while 1.9% identified as gay, lesbian or homosexual, and 1.0% as bisexual.

Results suggest that sexual orientation differences exist with respect to access to
health care, overall health status, cancer screening, chronic health conditions, mental
health, substance use including tobacco smoking, sexual health, and violence
victimization. While gay/lesbian/homosexual adults evidenced poorer health and greater
risk than straight/heterosexuals across several health domains, poorer health was
observed most often for bisexuals.
The health profile of gay/lesbian/homosexual
residents was poorer than that of heterosexual/straight residents on: self-reported
health; disability-related activity limitation; asthma; current and past tobacco smoking;
anxious mood; 30-day binge drinking and substance use; and lifetime sexual assault
victimization. In addition, lesbian/homosexual women were more likely to be obese than
their heterosexual/straight female peers.
Bisexual residents faired worse than
heterosexual/straight residents in terms of: access to health insurance, as well as
medical and dental providers; heart disease; anxious and depressed moods, 12-month
suicidal ideation; current tobacco smoking, and lifetime and 12-month sexual assault
victimization. In addition, bisexual women were more likely to report disability-related
activity limitation, 30-day illicit drug use, and lifetime intimate partner violence
victimization than heterosexual/straight women."

Overall Health Status
Self-reported health
• 10% of straight/heterosexual, 11% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 25% of
bisexual adults reported that their health was either fair or poor.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals were more likely to report having fair/poor health than
straight/heterosexuals (OR 1.45; 95% CI 1.06, 1.98).
• Bisexuals were more likely to report having fair/poor health than
straight/heterosexuals (OR 4.44; 95% CI 2.76, 7.13).

Activity limitation
• 15% of straight/heterosexual, 22% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 33% of
bisexual adults reported any limitation in activity because of a physical, mental or
emotional disability.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals were more likely to report a disability-related activity
limitation compared to straight/heterosexuals (OR 1.78; 95% CI 1.42, 2.25).
• The odds of being limited by a disability were greater for bisexual (OR 5.26, 95%
CI 3.48, 7.95) than straight/heterosexual women, but did not differ between
bisexual and straight/heterosexual men.

Illicit drugs
• 8% of straight/heterosexual, 17% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 34% of
bisexual adults reported illicit drug use at some point in the last 30 days.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals (OR 2.98; 95% CI 2.04, 4.37) were more likely to
report illicit drug use than straight/heterosexuals.

• Bisexual women were more likely to report illicit drug use (OR 8.80; 95% CI 4.24,

Sexual assault
• 13% of straight/heterosexual, 26% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 37% of
bisexual adults reported ever being sexually assaulted.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals were more likely to report a lifetime experience of
sexual assault than straight/heterosexuals (OR 2.91; 95% CI 2.04, 4.16).
• Bisexuals were more likely to report a lifetime experience of sexual assault than
straight/heterosexuals (OR 3.68; 95% CI 2.18, 6.20).

Intimate partner violence
• 18% of straight/heterosexual, 29% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 35% of
bisexual adults reported ever having been threatened with physical violence or
physically assaulted by an intimate partner.
• Bisexual women were more likely than straight/heterosexual women to report
lifetime experiences of intimate partner violence (OR 7.98; 95% CI 1.52, 41.89)**,
while there was no difference between bisexual and straight/heterosexual men.

Causes of drug/substance abuse and mental problems among Homosexuals

#4."An extensive study in the Netherlands undermines the assumption that homophobia is the cause of increased psychiatric illness among gays and lesbians. The Dutch have been considerably more accepting of same-sex relationships than other Western countries — in fact, same-sex couples now have the legal right to marry in the Netherlands.3 So a high rate of psychiatric disease associated with homosexual behavior in the Netherlands means that the psychiatric disease cannot so easily be attributed to social rejection and homophobia.

The Dutch study, published in the Archives of General Psychiatry, did indeed find a high rate of psychiatric disease associated with same-sex sex.4 Compared to controls who had no homosexual experience in the 12 months prior to the interview, males who had any homosexual contact within that time period were much more likely to experience major depression, bipolar disorder, panic disorder, agoraphobia and obsessive compulsive disorder. Females with any homosexual contact within the previous 12 months were more often diagnosed with major depression, social phobia or alcohol dependence. In fact, those with a history of homosexual contact had higher rates of nearly all psychiatric pathologies measured in the study.5 The researchers found “that homosexuality is not only associated with mental health problems during adolescence and early adulthood, as has been suggested, but also in later life.”6 Researchers actually fear that methodological features of “the study might underestimate the differences between homosexual and heterosexual people.”7

The Dutch researchers concluded, “this study offers evidence that homosexuality is associated with a higher prevalence of psychiatric disorders. The outcomes are in line with findings from earlier studies in which less rigorous designs have been employed.”8"

#5."
The Effect of Social Stigma

Third, does pressure from society lead to mental health problems? Less, I believe, than one might imagine. The authors of the study done in The Netherlands were surprised to find so much mental illness in homosexual people in a country where tolerance of homosexuality is greater than in almost all other countries.

Another good comparison country is New Zealand, which is much more tolerant of homosexuality than is the United States. Legislation giving the movement special legal rights is powerful, consistently enforced throughout the country, and virtually never challenged. Despite this broad level of social tolerance, suicide attempts were common in a New Zealand study and occurred at about the same rate as in the U.S.

In his cross-cultural comparison of mental health in the Netherlands, Denmark and the U.S., Ross (1988) could find no significant differences between countries - i.e. the greater social hostility in the United States did not result in a higher level of psychiatric problems.

There are three other issues not covered in the Archives journal articles which are worthy of consideration. The first two involve DSM category diagnoses.

Promiscuity and Antisocial Personality
The promiscuous person--either heterosexual or homosexual --may in fact be more likely to be antisocial. It is worth noting here the comment of Rotello (1997), who is himself openly gay: "...the outlaw aspect of gay sexual culture, its transgressiveness, is seen by many men as one of its greatest attributes."

Ellis et al. (1995) examined patients at an clinic which focused on genital and urological problems such as STD's; he found 38% of the homosexual men seeking such services had antisocial personality disorder, as well as 28% of heterosexual men. Both levels were enormously higher than the 2% rate of antisocial personality disorder for the general population (which in turn, compares to the 50% rate for prison inmates) (Matthews 1997).

Perhaps the finding of a higher level of conduct disorder in the New Zealand study foreshadowed this finding of antisocial personality . Therapists, of course, are not very likely to see a large number of individuals who are antisocial because they are probably less likely to seek help.

Secondly, it was previously noted that 43% of a bulimic sample of men were homosexual or bisexual (Carlat et al. 1997), a rate about 15 times higher than the rate in the population in general--meaning homosexual men are probably disproportionately liable to this mental condition. This may be due to the very strong preoccupation with appearance and physique frequently found among male homosexuals."
Homosexuality and Mental Health Problems



Unhealthy Homosexual Sex Practices:


#6."From a medical standpoint anal intercourse, in contrast to vaginal intercourse, poses serious risk to its participants. The rectum differs from the vagina with respect to suitability for penetration by a penis, limb or inanimate object (Agnew, 1985; Diggs, 2002; Koop, 1990). The vagina is designed to expand, is supported by a network of muscles and produces natural lubricants. It is composed of a mucus membrane with a multi-stratified squamous epithelium that allows it to endure friction without damage. The anus, in contrast, is designed to allow passage of fecal material out of the body. It is composed of small muscles and significantly more delicate tissues. Consequently, anal intercourse often results in anorectal trauma, hemorrhoids and anal fissures. With repeated trauma, friction and stretching, the anal sphincter loses its tone. Chronic leakage of fecal material has been known to develop from penile/anal intercourse alone; for those engaging in fisting this is a more common problem (Agnew, 1985; Diggs, 2002; Wolfe, 2000). In addition, fisting places the recipient at risk for a variety of anorectal traumas.

Since fisting may result in anorectal trauma and exposure to blood, there is risk of acquiring HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C particularly if the insertive partner has cuts or abrasions on his hands (Sowadsky, 1996). The insertive partner is also exposed to fecal matter. Consequently, fisting has been associated with increased incidence of shigellosis (Aragon, 2007) and Hepatitis A (Sowadsky, 1996), two illnesses transmitted by the fecal-oral route. The greatest medical danger of anal fisting, however, involves the susceptibility to injury of the inner walls of the lower colon. This tissue is very easily torn, but may not be recognized by the individuals involved. Such an injury can lead to an overwhelming infection of the abdominal cavity called peritonitis which may result in death (Diggs, 2002; Wolfe, 2000).

Medically, men who have sex with men (MSM) are disproportionately at risk for sexually transmitted infections (STI) and HIV (Diggs, 2002). The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention estimates that gay and bisexual men (men who have sex with men or MSM) in the United States are 50 times more likely to contract HIV than are heterosexual men (Lansky, 2009). This is largely due to having multiple sexual partners and engaging in risky sexual practices, including a high incidence of anal intercourse within this population (Diggs, 2002). For example, the estimated HIV risk with a single sexual exposure through receptive anal intercourse (2%) is 20 times greater than for receptive vaginal intercourse (0.1%), (Pinkerton, Martin, Roland, Katz, Coates, & Kahn, 2004)."
Health Risks: Fisting and other Homosexual Practices

#7."Often called "bug chasers" among the gay community, these men seek out other gay men who are infected, in hopes of having unprotected sex, barebacking, in an effort to become infected with HIV. Across the Internet, chat rooms and newsgroups are advertising "conversion parties" where negative men seek out those who are positive in hopes of getting infected. This practice of having deliberate unprotected anal sex has the potential to cause widespread HIV infection, especially among gay men and men who seek out anonymous sexual partners on the Internet""

#8."After years of activism, risk awareness, and AIDS prevention, increasing numbers of gay men are not using condoms, and new infections of HIV are on the rise. Using case studies and exhaustive survey research, this timely, groundbreaking book allows men who have unprotected sex, a practice now known as "barebacking," to speak for themselves on their willingness to risk it all.Without Condoms takes a balanced look at the profound needs that are met by this seemingly reckless behavior, while at the same time exposing the role that both the Internet and club drugs like crystal methamphetamine play in facilitating high-risk sexual encounters. The result is a compassionate, sophisticated and nuanced insight into what for many people is one of the most perplexing aspects of today's gay male culture and life style. Michael Shernoff digs deep and forces us to see that the AIDS epidemic is not over. We must now ask the hard questions and listen to the voices that answer. The stakes are too high to ignore."

#9."Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)1 represent approximately 2% of the US population, yet are the population most severely affected by HIV and are the only risk group in which new HIV infections have been increasing steadily since the early 1990s. In 2006, MSM accounted for more than half (53%) of all new HIV infections in the United States, and MSM with a history of injection drug use (MSM-IDU) accounted for an additional 4% of new infections. At the end of 2006, more than half (53%) of all people living with HIV in the United States were MSM or MSM-IDU. Since the beginning of the US epidemic, MSM have consistently represented the largest percentage of persons diagnosed with AIDS and persons with an AIDS diagnosis who have died.

* In 2006, more than 30,000 MSM and MSM-IDU were newly infected with HIV.
* Among all MSM, whites accounted for nearly half (46%) of new HIV infections in 2006. The largest number of new infections among white MSM occurred in those aged 30--39 years, followed by those aged 40--49 years.
* Among all black MSM, there were more new HIV infections (52%) among young black MSM (aged 13--29 years) than any other racial or ethnic age group of MSM in 2006. The number of new infections among young black MSM was nearly twice that of young white MSM and more than twice that of young Hispanic/Latino MSM.
* Among all Hispanic/Latino MSM in 2006, the largest number of new infections (43%) occurred in the youngest age group (13--29 years), though a substantial number of new HIV infections (35%) were among those aged 30--39 years."

HIV among Gay, Bisexual and Other Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM)| Topics | CDC HIV/AIDS

#10."There is an extremely high rate of parasitic and other intestinal infections documented among male homosexual practitioners because of oral-anal contact. In fact, there are so many infections that a syndrome called "the Gay Bowel" is described in the medical literature.33 "Gay bowel syndrome constitutes a group of conditions that occur among persons who practice unprotected anal intercourse, anilingus, or fellatio following anal intercourse."34 "Rimming" is the street name given to oralanal contact. It is because of this practice that intestinal parasites ordinarily found in the tropics are encountered in the bodies of American gay men. Combined with anal intercourse and other homosexual practices, "rimming" provides a rich opportunity for a variety of infections.

Men who have sex with men account for the lion's share of the increasing number of cases in America of sexually transmitted infections that are not generally spread through sexual contact. These diseases, with consequences that range from severe and even life-threatening to mere annoyances, include Hepatitis A,36 Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica,37 Epstein-Barr virus,38 Neisseria meningitides,39 Shigellosis, Salmonellosis, Pediculosis, scabies and Campylobacter.40 The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) identified a 1991 outbreak of Hepatitis A in New York City, in which 78 percent of male respondents identified themselves as homosexual or bisexual.41While Hepatitis A can be transmitted by routes other than sexual, a preponderance of Hepatitis A is found in gay men in multiple states.42 Salmonella is rarely associated with sexual activity except among gay men who have oral-anal and oral-genital contact following anal intercourse.43"
http://www.corporateresourcecouncil.org/white_papers/Health_Risks.pdf

#11."c. Human Waste

Some gay men sexualize human waste, including the medically dangerous practice of coprophilia, which means sexual contact with highly infectious fecal wastes.47 This practice exposes the participants to all of the risks of anal-oral contact and many of the risks of analgenital contact.

d. Fisting

"Fisting" refers to the insertion of a hand or forearm into the rectum, and is far more damaging than anal intercourse. Tears can occur, along with incompetence of the anal sphincter. The result can include infections, inflammation and, consequently, enhanced susceptibility to future STDs. Twenty-two percent of homosexuals in one survey admitted to having participated in this practice.48"

Committed Monogamous Homosexual Relationships a Myth


#12."AIDS research released in 1982 by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control reported that the typical gay man interviewed claimed to have had more than 500 different sexual partners in a 20-year span. Gay people with AIDS studied averaged more than 1,100 "lifetime" partners. Some reported as many as 20,000. (A psychologist we interviewed personally told of counseling a gay clergyman who admitted to having had more than 900 sexual partners to date.)

From perhaps the most comprehensive study of gay lifestyles ever undertaken before 1980, we learn that:

* 43% of white male homosexuals estimated they'd had sex with 500 or more different partners
* 75% had had 100 or more sexual partners; 28% (the largest subcategory) reported more than 1,000 partners
* 79% said more than half their partners were strangers
* 70% said more than half their sexual partners were men with whom they had sex only once[43] "
Gay "Marriage"?

#13."By David W. Virtue

A leading German sexologist, Dr. Martin Dannecker, who is himself a
homosexual, says fidelity between homosexual men living in a "committed
relationship" is a myth.


In a recent study he undertook of 900 male respondents living in a "steady"
relationship in Bonn, 83 percent (747) persons said they had had frequent
homosexual contacts outside their "steady" relationship within the last 12
months.

"In this context we must point out the clear differences in the manner of
sexual gratification that exists between homosexual men living in a steady
relationship and those who do not. Of those who were in a steady relationship
at the time of the survey, the average number of homosexual contacts per
person was approximately 115 in the past year. Homosexual men without a
steady relationship had an average of about 45 homosexual contacts," said
Dannecker.

The Threat to Society: Homosexuals openly advocating pedophilia and the elimination of the age of consent laws

310px-NAMBLA_logo.svg.png

North American Man/Boy Love Association

#15."The North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) is a pedophile and pederasty advocacy organization in the United States that works to abolish age of consent laws criminalizing adult sexual involvement with minors,[2][3] and for the release of all men who have been jailed for sexual contacts with minors that did not involve coercion.[2][4] Some reports state that the group no longer has regular national meetings, and that as of the late 1990s to avoid local police infiltration, the organization discouraged the formation of local chapters.[4][5] An undercover detective around 1995 discovered that there were 1,100 people on the rolls.[4] As of 2005 a newspaper report stated that NAMBLA was based in New York and San Francisco, and that it held an annual gathering in New York City and monthly meetings around the country.[4]"

Homosexuality and Child Molestation:

#16.""Overwhelming evidence supports the belief that homosexuality is a sexual deviancy often accompanied by disorders that have dire consequences for our culture," wrote Steve Baldwin in, "Child Molestation and the Homosexual Movement," soon to be published by the Regent University Law Review.

Baldwin is the executive director of the Council for National Policy in Washington, D.C.

"It is difficult to convey the dark side of the homosexual culture without appearing harsh," wrote Baldwin. "However, it is time to acknowledge that homosexual behavior threatens the foundation of Western civilization – the nuclear family."

Though the homosexual community and much of the media scoff at such accusations, Baldwin – who chaired the California Assembly's Education committee, where he fought against support for the homosexual agenda in the state's public schools – says in his report that homosexual activists' "efforts to target children both for their own sexual pleasure and to enlarge the homosexual movement" constitute an "unmistakable" attack on "the family unit."

Baldwin's research is substantiated in a recently completed body of work written by Dr. Judith Reisman, president of the Institute for Media Education and author of numerous authoritative books debunking sexual myths, including "Kinsey, Crimes & Consequences."

In her thesis – also written for the Regent University Law Review – Reisman cited psychologist Eugene Abel, whose research found that homosexuals "sexually molest young boys with an incidence that is occurring from five times greater than the molestation of girls. …"

Abel also found that non-incarcerated "child molesters admitted from 23.4 to 281.7 acts per offender … whose targets were males."

"The rate of homosexual versus heterosexual child sexual abuse is staggering," said Reisman, who was the principal investigator for an $800,000 Justice Department grant studying child pornography and violence. "Abel’s data of 150.2 boys abused per male homosexual offender finds no equal (yet) in heterosexual violations of 19.8 girls."

#17."• Homosexual Alfred Kinsey, the preeminent
sexual researcher in the history
of sexual research, found in 1948
that 37 percent of all male homosexuals
admitted to having sex with children
under 17 years old.4


• Avery recent (2000) study published
in the Archives of Sexual Behavior
found that “The best epidemiological
evidence indicates that only 2-4% of
men attracted to adults prefer men. In
contrast, around 25-40% of men attracted
to children prefer boys. Thus,
the rate of homosexual attraction is 6-
20 times higher among pedophiles.”5

The Scientific Evidence

#18." Three kinds of scientific evidence point to the proportion of homosexual molestation: 1) survey reports of molestation in the general population, 2) surveys of those caught and convicted of molestation, and 3) what homosexuals themselves have reported. These three lines of evidence suggest that the 1%-to-3% of adults who practice homosexuality (3) account for between a fifth and a third of all child molestation.

Reports of Molestation by the General population

In 1983, a probability survey of the sexual experiences of 4,340 adults in 5 U.S. cities found that about 3% of men and 7% of women reported sexual involvement with a man before the age of 134 (i.e., 30% was homosexual).

In 1983- (4), a random survey of 3,132 adults in Los Angeles found that 3.8% of men and 6.8% of women said that they had been sexually assaulted in childhood. Since 93% of the assailants were male, and only 1% of girls had been assaulted by females, about 35% of the assaults were homosexual. (5)

The Los Angeles Times (6) surveyed 2,628 adults across the U.S. in 1985. 27% of the women and 16% of the men claimed to have been sexually molested. Since 7% of the molestations of girls and 93% of the molestations of boys were by adults of the same sex, about 4 of every 10 molestations in this survey were homosexual.

In a random survey of British 15-to-19 yr olds, 35% of the boys and 9% of the girls claimed to have been approached for sex by adult homosexuals and 2% of the boys and 1% of the girls admitted to succumbing. (7)

In science, a review of the professional literature published in a refereed scientific journal is considered to be an accurate summary of the current state of knowledge. The latest such review was published in 1985. (8) It concluded that homosexual acts were involved in 25% to 40% of the cases of child molestation recorded in the scientific and forensic literature."

It should be noted that despite all of this evidence gained through years of research and studies conducted by reputable and respected sources, yet still Homosexuals and their sympathizers will continue to live in denial and label anyone who refutes their mythical claims a homophobe, racist, right wing, religious fanatic etc because that is their last resort; name calling, bashing, and smearing anything that proves their mythical claims false.

I rest my case.
 
.
actually that is not correct, statistics show that there is more sexual assault towards opposite sex, then those involving the same sex, even in regards to children. their goes your theory and supposed proof of it being a gay problem.

Statistics? What statistics? And no, my argument remains valid, your theory goes out the window.

the only way your claim would come close to being true, is that statistically men are found to be responsible for it moreso then women.

rapist have more to do with pedophiles then pedophiles have sumtin to do with gay people, and in a country where you think its ok for honor killing when a man rapes a women, the women is punished, i cant even begin to pathom your problem with gay people

Where did anyone state that that is ok? Quote me otherwise your bullsh!tting.

Below i refute your claims and validate my argument regarding the disgusting homosexual behavior and the harmful affects of homosexuality to society.


My argument regarding Homosexuality and its negative impact on society

The Homosexual lifestyle is unhealthy, and harmful not only to homosexuals, but also to the people around them and to society as a whole. It has been proven through extensive scientific research and studies conducted by reputable sources and notable institutions such as the CDC (Center for Disease Control), NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), NARTH (National Association for Research & Therapy of Homosexuality), and many other reputable sources and medical research that supports my argument; homosexual behavior is unnatural, unhealthy, harmful, and as a result is the cause of spread of many STD's and related diseases.

Homosexuals and Drug/substance abuse

#1."The findings of a study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry (December 2003) suggest higher incidences of illegal drug usage, alcoholism, psychological problems, and violence in the gay community than in the general population.

"Gay men and lesbians reported more psychological distress than heterosexual women, despite similar levels of social support and quality of physical health," the researchers reported (p. 556).

The controlled, cross-sectional study was conducted in both England and Wales. No European study in mental health, according to the researchers, has ever before recruited over a thousand gay and lesbian participants.

Surveying a total of 1,161 men (656 self-identified gay, 505 self-identified heterosexual) and 1,018 women (430 self-identified as lesbian, 588 self-identified as straight), the researchers said their main goal was "to compare psychological status, quality of life and use of mental health by lesbians and gay men with heterosexual people."

The researchers found that homosexual males and females both tended to score higher on scales of psychological distress than did their heterosexual counterparts. Further, they were found to be more likely to have used recreational drugs and to have inflicted deliberate harm upon themselves. Gays of both genders were also found to have consulted mental health professionals more frequently than the straight participants.

Additionally, the researchers found that the lesbian participants were the most frequent victims of physical intimidation and violence. Lesbians were also found to be "more likely than heterosexual women to drink excessively."

But bullying at school, the study noted, was reported no more often by gay men than by heterosexual men. Reports that gay men and lesbians are disproportionately vulnerable to school harassment "are often taken at face value," the researchers noted, with researchers failing to draw a comparison to heterosexual students, who--at least in this study--were found to suffer similar high rates of school bullying and harassment."
Study Indicates Gays and Lesbians Prone To Psychological Symptoms and Substance Abuse

#2."The complex relationships between recreational non-injection
drug use and HIV sexual risk behaviors have been documented
throughout the epidemic.
The purpose of this study was to (1) assess the
extent of non-injection recreational drug use among gay and bisexual
men frequenting gay social venues, as well as to assess recent initiation
of substance use, especially "club drugs"; and (2) document the interaction
between drug use and risky sexual practices. Street recruitment
methods were used to administer a survey to 202 gay or bisexual men recruited
at ten gay social venues in New York City. The majority of participants
reported substance use, and more than half reported the use of
drugs other than alcohol. Participation in gay social venues such as bars,
dance clubs, and bathhouses was associated with more substance use.
Polydrug use, participation in gay venues, and HIV status were found to
be associated with unprotected behaviors while under the influence. In
multivariate analyses, the use of inhalant nitrates and alcohol were found
to be the two substances that best predicted unprotected oral and anal
sexual behaviors.


Both recreational drug use and HIV sexual risk behaviors continue among
gay and bisexual men as we approach the third decade of AIDS.
In light of
treatment advances for HIV and the potential for viral mutation and drug resistance,
these unsafe sexual practices, which may be influenced by drug use,
present even greater threats to the long-term health of both HIV seropositive
(HIV+) and seronegative (HIV) gay and bisexual men
(Halkitis & Wilton,
1999a; 1999b). Specifically, the emergence of a specific set of drugs, known
colloquially as "club drugs" because of their association with gay social venues
(dance clubs, sex clubs, circuit parties, bathhouses, bars), poses an immediate
threat to the gay/bisexual community. These club drugs influence the
sexual behaviors of users because they are used in environments in which sex
is the primary objective of participation
(Bochow, 1998; Klitzman, Pope, &
Hudson, 2000; Lewis & Ross, 1995; McKirnan & Peterson, 1989; McKirnan,
Ostrow, & Hope, 1996; National Institute on Drug Abuse, 1999; Parsons,
Halkitis, Stirratt, & O'Leary, 1998)."

#3."IMPORTANT NOTE from the following information: Sexual Orientation
• 97.1% of adults identified themselves as heterosexual or straight, while 1.9%
self-identified as gay, lesbian or homosexual, and 1.0% as bisexual.


A growing body of research indicates that health disparities exist between
gay/lesbian/bisexuals and heterosexuals.
For the first time, population-based estimates
of sexual orientation differences in adult health are available in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. This report used data collected for the 2001-2006 Massachusetts
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System surveys to compare self-reported health
behavior and status among (n=38,910) heterosexual/straight, gay/lesbian/homosexual,
and bisexual adults ages 18-64. Most (97.1%) self-identified as heterosexual or straight,
while 1.9% identified as gay, lesbian or homosexual, and 1.0% as bisexual.

Results suggest that sexual orientation differences exist with respect to access to
health care, overall health status, cancer screening, chronic health conditions, mental
health, substance use including tobacco smoking, sexual health, and violence
victimization. While gay/lesbian/homosexual adults evidenced poorer health and greater
risk than straight/heterosexuals across several health domains, poorer health was
observed most often for bisexuals.
The health profile of gay/lesbian/homosexual
residents was poorer than that of heterosexual/straight residents on: self-reported
health; disability-related activity limitation; asthma; current and past tobacco smoking;
anxious mood; 30-day binge drinking and substance use; and lifetime sexual assault
victimization. In addition, lesbian/homosexual women were more likely to be obese than
their heterosexual/straight female peers.
Bisexual residents faired worse than
heterosexual/straight residents in terms of: access to health insurance, as well as
medical and dental providers; heart disease; anxious and depressed moods, 12-month
suicidal ideation; current tobacco smoking, and lifetime and 12-month sexual assault
victimization. In addition, bisexual women were more likely to report disability-related
activity limitation, 30-day illicit drug use, and lifetime intimate partner violence
victimization than heterosexual/straight women."

Overall Health Status
Self-reported health
• 10% of straight/heterosexual, 11% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 25% of
bisexual adults reported that their health was either fair or poor.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals were more likely to report having fair/poor health than
straight/heterosexuals (OR 1.45; 95% CI 1.06, 1.98).
• Bisexuals were more likely to report having fair/poor health than
straight/heterosexuals (OR 4.44; 95% CI 2.76, 7.13).

Activity limitation
• 15% of straight/heterosexual, 22% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 33% of
bisexual adults reported any limitation in activity because of a physical, mental or
emotional disability.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals were more likely to report a disability-related activity
limitation compared to straight/heterosexuals (OR 1.78; 95% CI 1.42, 2.25).
• The odds of being limited by a disability were greater for bisexual (OR 5.26, 95%

Illicit drugs
• 8% of straight/heterosexual, 17% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 34% of
bisexual adults reported illicit drug use at some point in the last 30 days.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals (OR 2.98; 95% CI 2.04, 4.37) were more likely to
report illicit drug use than straight/heterosexuals.

• Bisexual women were more likely to report illicit drug use (OR 8.80; 95% CI 4.24,

Sexual assault
• 13% of straight/heterosexual, 26% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 37% of
bisexual adults reported ever being sexually assaulted.
• Gay/lesbian/homosexuals were more likely to report a lifetime experience of
sexual assault than straight/heterosexuals (OR 2.91; 95% CI 2.04, 4.16).
• Bisexuals were more likely to report a lifetime experience of sexual assault than
straight/heterosexuals (OR 3.68; 95% CI 2.18, 6.20).

Intimate partner violence
• 18% of straight/heterosexual, 29% of gay/lesbian/homosexual, and 35% of
bisexual adults reported ever having been threatened with physical violence or
physically assaulted by an intimate partner.
• Bisexual women were more likely than straight/heterosexual women to report
lifetime experiences of intimate partner violence (OR 7.98; 95% CI 1.52, 41.89)**,
while there was no difference between bisexual and straight/heterosexual men.

Causes of drug/substance abuse and mental problems among Homosexuals

#4."An extensive study in the Netherlands undermines the assumption that homophobia is the cause of increased psychiatric illness among gays and lesbians. The Dutch have been considerably more accepting of same-sex relationships than other Western countries — in fact, same-sex couples now have the legal right to marry in the Netherlands.3 So a high rate of psychiatric disease associated with homosexual behavior in the Netherlands means that the psychiatric disease cannot so easily be attributed to social rejection and homophobia.

The Dutch study, published in the Archives of General Psychiatry, did indeed find a high rate of psychiatric disease associated with same-sex sex.4 Compared to controls who had no homosexual experience in the 12 months prior to the interview, males who had any homosexual contact within that time period were much more likely to experience major depression, bipolar disorder, panic disorder, agoraphobia and obsessive compulsive disorder. Females with any homosexual contact within the previous 12 months were more often diagnosed with major depression, social phobia or alcohol dependence. In fact, those with a history of homosexual contact had higher rates of nearly all psychiatric pathologies measured in the study.5 The researchers found “that homosexuality is not only associated with mental health problems during adolescence and early adulthood, as has been suggested, but also in later life.”6 Researchers actually fear that methodological features of “the study might underestimate the differences between homosexual and heterosexual people.”7

The Dutch researchers concluded, “this study offers evidence that homosexuality is associated with a higher prevalence of psychiatric disorders. The outcomes are in line with findings from earlier studies in which less rigorous designs have been employed.”8"

#5."
The Effect of Social Stigma

Third, does pressure from society lead to mental health problems? Less, I believe, than one might imagine. The authors of the study done in The Netherlands were surprised to find so much mental illness in homosexual people in a country where tolerance of homosexuality is greater than in almost all other countries.

Another good comparison country is New Zealand, which is much more tolerant of homosexuality than is the United States. Legislation giving the movement special legal rights is powerful, consistently enforced throughout the country, and virtually never challenged. Despite this broad level of social tolerance, suicide attempts were common in a New Zealand study and occurred at about the same rate as in the U.S.

In his cross-cultural comparison of mental health in the Netherlands, Denmark and the U.S., Ross (1988) could find no significant differences between countries - i.e. the greater social hostility in the United States did not result in a higher level of psychiatric problems.

There are three other issues not covered in the Archives journal articles which are worthy of consideration. The first two involve DSM category diagnoses.

Promiscuity and Antisocial Personality
The promiscuous person--either heterosexual or homosexual --may in fact be more likely to be antisocial. It is worth noting here the comment of Rotello (1997), who is himself openly gay: "...the outlaw aspect of gay sexual culture, its transgressiveness, is seen by many men as one of its greatest attributes."

Ellis et al. (1995) examined patients at an clinic which focused on genital and urological problems such as STD's; he found 38% of the homosexual men seeking such services had antisocial personality disorder, as well as 28% of heterosexual men. Both levels were enormously higher than the 2% rate of antisocial personality disorder for the general population (which in turn, compares to the 50% rate for prison inmates) (Matthews 1997).

Perhaps the finding of a higher level of conduct disorder in the New Zealand study foreshadowed this finding of antisocial personality . Therapists, of course, are not very likely to see a large number of individuals who are antisocial because they are probably less likely to seek help.

Secondly, it was previously noted that 43% of a bulimic sample of men were homosexual or bisexual (Carlat et al. 1997), a rate about 15 times higher than the rate in the population in general--meaning homosexual men are probably disproportionately liable to this mental condition. This may be due to the very strong preoccupation with appearance and physique frequently found among male homosexuals."
Homosexuality and Mental Health Problems



Unhealthy Homosexual Sex Practices:


#6."From a medical standpoint anal intercourse, in contrast to vaginal intercourse, poses serious risk to its participants. The rectum differs from the vagina with respect to suitability for penetration by a penis, limb or inanimate object (Agnew, 1985; Diggs, 2002; Koop, 1990). The vagina is designed to expand, is supported by a network of muscles and produces natural lubricants. It is composed of a mucus membrane with a multi-stratified squamous epithelium that allows it to endure friction without damage. The anus, in contrast, is designed to allow passage of fecal material out of the body. It is composed of small muscles and significantly more delicate tissues. Consequently, anal intercourse often results in anorectal trauma, hemorrhoids and anal fissures. With repeated trauma, friction and stretching, the anal sphincter loses its tone. Chronic leakage of fecal material has been known to develop from penile/anal intercourse alone; for those engaging in fisting this is a more common problem (Agnew, 1985; Diggs, 2002; Wolfe, 2000). In addition, fisting places the recipient at risk for a variety of anorectal traumas.

Since fisting may result in anorectal trauma and exposure to blood, there is risk of acquiring HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C particularly if the insertive partner has cuts or abrasions on his hands (Sowadsky, 1996). The insertive partner is also exposed to fecal matter. Consequently, fisting has been associated with increased incidence of shigellosis (Aragon, 2007) and Hepatitis A (Sowadsky, 1996), two illnesses transmitted by the fecal-oral route. The greatest medical danger of anal fisting, however, involves the susceptibility to injury of the inner walls of the lower colon. This tissue is very easily torn, but may not be recognized by the individuals involved. Such an injury can lead to an overwhelming infection of the abdominal cavity called peritonitis which may result in death (Diggs, 2002; Wolfe, 2000).

Medically, men who have sex with men (MSM) are disproportionately at risk for sexually transmitted infections (STI) and HIV (Diggs, 2002). The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention estimates that gay and bisexual men (men who have sex with men or MSM) in the United States are 50 times more likely to contract HIV than are heterosexual men (Lansky, 2009). This is largely due to having multiple sexual partners and engaging in risky sexual practices, including a high incidence of anal intercourse within this population (Diggs, 2002). For example, the estimated HIV risk with a single sexual exposure through receptive anal intercourse (2%) is 20 times greater than for receptive vaginal intercourse (0.1%), (Pinkerton, Martin, Roland, Katz, Coates, & Kahn, 2004)."
Health Risks: Fisting and other Homosexual Practices

#7."Often called "bug chasers" among the gay community, these men seek out other gay men who are infected, in hopes of having unprotected sex, barebacking, in an effort to become infected with HIV. Across the Internet, chat rooms and newsgroups are advertising "conversion parties" where negative men seek out those who are positive in hopes of getting infected. This practice of having deliberate unprotected anal sex has the potential to cause widespread HIV infection, especially among gay men and men who seek out anonymous sexual partners on the Internet""

#8."After years of activism, risk awareness, and AIDS prevention, increasing numbers of gay men are not using condoms, and new infections of HIV are on the rise. Using case studies and exhaustive survey research, this timely, groundbreaking book allows men who have unprotected sex, a practice now known as "barebacking," to speak for themselves on their willingness to risk it all.Without Condoms takes a balanced look at the profound needs that are met by this seemingly reckless behavior, while at the same time exposing the role that both the Internet and club drugs like crystal methamphetamine play in facilitating high-risk sexual encounters. The result is a compassionate, sophisticated and nuanced insight into what for many people is one of the most perplexing aspects of today's gay male culture and life style. Michael Shernoff digs deep and forces us to see that the AIDS epidemic is not over. We must now ask the hard questions and listen to the voices that answer. The stakes are too high to ignore."

#9."Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)1 represent approximately 2% of the US population, yet are the population most severely affected by HIV and are the only risk group in which new HIV infections have been increasing steadily since the early 1990s. In 2006, MSM accounted for more than half (53%) of all new HIV infections in the United States, and MSM with a history of injection drug use (MSM-IDU) accounted for an additional 4% of new infections. At the end of 2006, more than half (53%) of all people living with HIV in the United States were MSM or MSM-IDU. Since the beginning of the US epidemic, MSM have consistently represented the largest percentage of persons diagnosed with AIDS and persons with an AIDS diagnosis who have died.

* In 2006, more than 30,000 MSM and MSM-IDU were newly infected with HIV.
* Among all MSM, whites accounted for nearly half (46%) of new HIV infections in 2006. The largest number of new infections among white MSM occurred in those aged 30--39 years, followed by those aged 40--49 years.
* Among all black MSM, there were more new HIV infections (52%) among young black MSM (aged 13--29 years) than any other racial or ethnic age group of MSM in 2006. The number of new infections among young black MSM was nearly twice that of young white MSM and more than twice that of young Hispanic/Latino MSM.
* Among all Hispanic/Latino MSM in 2006, the largest number of new infections (43%) occurred in the youngest age group (13--29 years), though a substantial number of new HIV infections (35%) were among those aged 30--39 years."

HIV among Gay, Bisexual and Other Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM)| Topics | CDC HIV/AIDS

#10."There is an extremely high rate of parasitic and other intestinal infections documented among male homosexual practitioners because of oral-anal contact. In fact, there are so many infections that a syndrome called "the Gay Bowel" is described in the medical literature.33 "Gay bowel syndrome constitutes a group of conditions that occur among persons who practice unprotected anal intercourse, anilingus, or fellatio following anal intercourse."34 "Rimming" is the street name given to oralanal contact. It is because of this practice that intestinal parasites ordinarily found in the tropics are encountered in the bodies of American gay men. Combined with anal intercourse and other homosexual practices, "rimming" provides a rich opportunity for a variety of infections.

Men who have sex with men account for the lion's share of the increasing number of cases in America of sexually transmitted infections that are not generally spread through sexual contact. These diseases, with consequences that range from severe and even life-threatening to mere annoyances, include Hepatitis A,36 Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica,37 Epstein-Barr virus,38 Neisseria meningitides,39 Shigellosis, Salmonellosis, Pediculosis, scabies and Campylobacter.40 The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) identified a 1991 outbreak of Hepatitis A in New York City, in which 78 percent of male respondents identified themselves as homosexual or bisexual.41While Hepatitis A can be transmitted by routes other than sexual, a preponderance of Hepatitis A is found in gay men in multiple states.42 Salmonella is rarely associated with sexual activity except among gay men who have oral-anal and oral-genital contact following anal intercourse.43"
http://www.corporateresourcecouncil.org/white_papers/Health_Risks.pdf

#11."c. Human Waste

Some gay men sexualize human waste, including the medically dangerous practice of coprophilia, which means sexual contact with highly infectious fecal wastes.47 This practice exposes the participants to all of the risks of anal-oral contact and many of the risks of analgenital contact.

d. Fisting

"Fisting" refers to the insertion of a hand or forearm into the rectum, and is far more damaging than anal intercourse. Tears can occur, along with incompetence of the anal sphincter. The result can include infections, inflammation and, consequently, enhanced susceptibility to future STDs. Twenty-two percent of homosexuals in one survey admitted to having participated in this practice.48"

Committed Monogamous Homosexual Relationships a Myth


#12."AIDS research released in 1982 by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control reported that the typical gay man interviewed claimed to have had more than 500 different sexual partners in a 20-year span. Gay people with AIDS studied averaged more than 1,100 "lifetime" partners. Some reported as many as 20,000. (A psychologist we interviewed personally told of counseling a gay clergyman who admitted to having had more than 900 sexual partners to date.)

From perhaps the most comprehensive study of gay lifestyles ever undertaken before 1980, we learn that:

* 43% of white male homosexuals estimated they'd had sex with 500 or more different partners
* 75% had had 100 or more sexual partners; 28% (the largest subcategory) reported more than 1,000 partners
* 79% said more than half their partners were strangers
* 70% said more than half their sexual partners were men with whom they had sex only once[43] "
Gay "Marriage"?

#13."By David W. Virtue

A leading German sexologist, Dr. Martin Dannecker, who is himself a
homosexual, says fidelity between homosexual men living in a "committed
relationship" is a myth.


In a recent study he undertook of 900 male respondents living in a "steady"
relationship in Bonn, 83 percent (747) persons said they had had frequent
homosexual contacts outside their "steady" relationship within the last 12
months.

"In this context we must point out the clear differences in the manner of
sexual gratification that exists between homosexual men living in a steady
relationship and those who do not. Of those who were in a steady relationship
at the time of the survey, the average number of homosexual contacts per
person was approximately 115 in the past year. Homosexual men without a
steady relationship had an average of about 45 homosexual contacts," said
Dannecker.

North American Man/Boy Love Association

#15."The North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) is a pedophile and pederasty advocacy organization in the United States that works to abolish age of consent laws criminalizing adult sexual involvement with minors,[2][3] and for the release of all men who have been jailed for sexual contacts with minors that did not involve coercion.[2][4] Some reports state that the group no longer has regular national meetings, and that as of the late 1990s to avoid local police infiltration, the organization discouraged the formation of local chapters.[4][5] An undercover detective around 1995 discovered that there were 1,100 people on the rolls.[4] As of 2005 a newspaper report stated that NAMBLA was based in New York and San Francisco, and that it held an annual gathering in New York City and monthly meetings around the country.[4]"

Homosexuality and Child Molestation:

#16.""Overwhelming evidence supports the belief that homosexuality is a sexual deviancy often accompanied by disorders that have dire consequences for our culture," wrote Steve Baldwin in, "Child Molestation and the Homosexual Movement," soon to be published by the Regent University Law Review.

Baldwin is the executive director of the Council for National Policy in Washington, D.C.

"It is difficult to convey the dark side of the homosexual culture without appearing harsh," wrote Baldwin. "However, it is time to acknowledge that homosexual behavior threatens the foundation of Western civilization – the nuclear family."

Though the homosexual community and much of the media scoff at such accusations, Baldwin – who chaired the California Assembly's Education committee, where he fought against support for the homosexual agenda in the state's public schools – says in his report that homosexual activists' "efforts to target children both for their own sexual pleasure and to enlarge the homosexual movement" constitute an "unmistakable" attack on "the family unit."

Baldwin's research is substantiated in a recently completed body of work written by Dr. Judith Reisman, president of the Institute for Media Education and author of numerous authoritative books debunking sexual myths, including "Kinsey, Crimes & Consequences."

In her thesis – also written for the Regent University Law Review – Reisman cited psychologist Eugene Abel, whose research found that homosexuals "sexually molest young boys with an incidence that is occurring from five times greater than the molestation of girls. …"

Abel also found that non-incarcerated "child molesters admitted from 23.4 to 281.7 acts per offender … whose targets were males."

"The rate of homosexual versus heterosexual child sexual abuse is staggering," said Reisman, who was the principal investigator for an $800,000 Justice Department grant studying child pornography and violence. "Abel’s data of 150.2 boys abused per male homosexual offender finds no equal (yet) in heterosexual violations of 19.8 girls."

#17."• Homosexual Alfred Kinsey, the preeminent
sexual researcher in the history
of sexual research, found in 1948
that 37 percent of all male homosexuals
admitted to having sex with children
under 17 years old.4


• Avery recent (2000) study published
in the Archives of Sexual Behavior
found that “The best epidemiological
evidence indicates that only 2-4% of
men attracted to adults prefer men. In
contrast, around 25-40% of men attracted
to children prefer boys. Thus,
the rate of homosexual attraction is 6-
20 times higher among pedophiles.”5

The Scientific Evidence

#18." Three kinds of scientific evidence point to the proportion of homosexual molestation: 1) survey reports of molestation in the general population, 2) surveys of those caught and convicted of molestation, and 3) what homosexuals themselves have reported. These three lines of evidence suggest that the 1%-to-3% of adults who practice homosexuality (3) account for between a fifth and a third of all child molestation.

Reports of Molestation by the General population

In 1983, a probability survey of the sexual experiences of 4,340 adults in 5 U.S. cities found that about 3% of men and 7% of women reported sexual involvement with a man before the age of 134 (i.e., 30% was homosexual).

In 1983- (4), a random survey of 3,132 adults in Los Angeles found that 3.8% of men and 6.8% of women said that they had been sexually assaulted in childhood. Since 93% of the assailants were male, and only 1% of girls had been assaulted by females, about 35% of the assaults were homosexual. (5)

The Los Angeles Times (6) surveyed 2,628 adults across the U.S. in 1985. 27% of the women and 16% of the men claimed to have been sexually molested. Since 7% of the molestations of girls and 93% of the molestations of boys were by adults of the same sex, about 4 of every 10 molestations in this survey were homosexual.

In a random survey of British 15-to-19 yr olds, 35% of the boys and 9% of the girls claimed to have been approached for sex by adult homosexuals and 2% of the boys and 1% of the girls admitted to succumbing. (7)

In science, a review of the professional literature published in a refereed scientific journal is considered to be an accurate summary of the current state of knowledge. The latest such review was published in 1985. (8) It concluded that homosexual acts were involved in 25% to 40% of the cases of child molestation recorded in the scientific and forensic literature."

It should be noted that despite all of this evidence gained through years of research and studies conducted by reputable and respected sources, yet still Homosexuals and their sympathizers will continue to live in denial and label anyone who refutes their mythical claims a homophobe, racist, right wing, religious fanatic etc because that is their last resort; name calling, bashing, and smearing anything that proves their mythical claims false.

I rest my case.

Pakistanis can enjoy their blasphemy laws, floggings and throwing acid at women. Let the Australians and the west do their part to make gays, handicapped and oppressed lead a life of dignity.
