The statistics are quite staggering actually. Check CDC or any reliable health related statistics. Mental health disorders are significantly higher in those who have sex with the same sex. Depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, mood disorders etc. We see it all the time in homosexuals. Suicide, substance abuse, self harm, illegal drug use, homelessness. On & on. Not to mention higher rates of STDs.
How could anybody say that homosexuality doesn't hurt anyone? Absolutely incredible.
Is this a serious post? Threads like this are why homosexuals lead sh*tty lives a lot of times. If everyone would just leave them the f*ck alone they would probably be a lot happier.
He claims to work in public health. Do you? Do you believe he is lying? Do you have anything of substance to contradict his claims? Or do you simply choose to blindly believe what you want to believe, based on your own moral relativism, even in the face of specific evidence pointing to the contrary?
FWIW, there IS a clear correlation between homosexuality and low mental health. I doubt either of us are in a position to argue which causes which, or if causation is even in the picture, but it cannot be ruled out that homosexual tendencies are an EFFECT of an deeper, underlying disorder. (I say that because of several implications on this thread that those anxiety disorders are the product of society. Both stances are possibilities.)
