This guy is from U/T Austin. Not for long! Austin is the San Francisco of the Southwest.

IOW are the same as Demcrat party members and/or residents of DC.

“Are nearly 4 times as likely to have been “physically forced” to have sex against their will”

Yup. These fruity degenerates even rape their own adopted kids. Someone tell me that’s “normal”..

Wise indeed ;-)

As to the question of whether you have "ever been physically forced" to have sex against your will (not necessarily in childhood), affirmative answers came from 8% of children of married biological parents, 31% of children of lesbian mothers (nearly 4 times as many), and 25% of the children of homosexual fathers (3 times as many). Again, when Regnerus breaks these figures out for females (who are more likely to be victims of sexual abuse in general), such abuse was reported by 14% of IBFs, but 3 times as many of the LMs (46%) and GFs (52%).

Is this study saying that a girl raised by either lesbians or gays has a 50-50 chance of being forced to have sex against her will as compared to 14% of those raised by an intact M/Female family?

That is stunning.

So tell me again how queer parents get to be parents? The notion that both natural parents are homosexual has to be a made-up non-starter. If the studied children are adopted that is going to create some anomalies at the very least. And remind me how the children come to know both of their parents are queer? There’s no way that would affect how the kids come out, would it? How much public money was spent coming up with this claptrap?

Are almost 4 times more likely to be currently on public assistance.

And there you have it, "fiscal conservatives."

Repent.

I'm a Christian woman in my 40's who lived a lesbian lifestyle when I was in my 20's. I've noticed how the studies on homosexuality seem skewed to make their effects seem much better than they are. Child Abuse Rate At Zero Percent In Lesbian Households, New Report Finds
"In an article published today in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, the 17-year-old daughters and sons of lesbian mothers were asked about sexual abuse, sexual orientation, and sexual behavior. "The paper found that none of the 78 NLLFS adolescents reports having ever been physically or sexually abused by a parent or other caregiver. This contrasts with 26 percent of American adolescents who report parent or caregiver physical abuse and 8.3 percent who report sexual abuse." I read more about this study when it came out, and the key was that 17 year-olds (still living with their parents, of course), were given these questions. I also found a site at the time (2010) which I haven't been able to find again which had a lot on domestic violence in lesbian relationships, which quoted statistics showing it was more common, and also quoted a researcher as saying there is a taboo in the homosexual community against seeing lesbians as anything but more peaceful and compassionate than men. It seems like the dependent children of lesbians are forced to go along with this taboo. This next "study" especially got front page treatment when it came out, despite the fact that the only thing studied were trips men in gay lifestyles made to a health clinic in just the year before and the year after gay marriage was adopted there, which was 2003. The study came out in 2011. If the researchers had found an actual difference in what they looked at over many years, you can believe they would have published that. But all they actually were able to show was a difference in clinic visits between one year and the next, and yet the study was front-page news in 2011, declaring that gay marriage improves men's health. The study itself only says it may improve men's health. http://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/abs/10.2105/AJPH.2011.300382 Same-sex marriage boosts gay men's health, study suggests (CBS) Legalized same-sex marriage may provide couples with more than just legal benefits. A new study suggests gay men who get married may be healthier than unmarried gay men. "For the study, published in the Dec. 15 issue of the American Journal of Public Health, researchers compared health records on 1,211 gay patients at a community health clinic in Massachusetts in the years before and after same-sex marriage was legalized in 2003." It's discouraging at times to see how things are going these days. However, I take comfort that Jesus is victor! Homosexuality is one of many sins that people in these especially rebellious times has embraced. As Christians we have to do our part to be salt and light, but God is in control and one day there will be an end to our sin nature and we'll live in a world without it. Praise the Lord!

Effect of Same-Sex Marriage Laws on Health Care Use and Expenditures in Sexual Minority Men: A Quasi-Natural Experiment

Cover it up yes attack it and discredit the authors more likely. I am sure the jack boots will get involved.

[OldNewYork]

It’s not about the truth to these deviants and their supporters, and probably never has been. But it’s good this study was done, and I hope it does make impact on those still reachable by reason. Those who needed a study to point this out to them though owe many people an apology for giving up common sense.

[OrangeHoof]

That’s a good point. There are gray areas here which might affect the numbers. However, when you see sensational claims like “10 times more likely” you still have to balance that with how many at least claim this was not a problem.

For example, I believe homosexuals should not go on camping trips with boy/girl scouts because of the potential for pedophilia but we cannot ignore that a) straights may also be pedophiles and b) gays may not be inclined to be pedophiles. By banning gays, you *improve* the odds that the scouts won’t be molested but you aren’t eliminating the danger.

You then have to ask yourself what is considered an acceptable risk. If 98% of straights wouldn’t molest scouts and 90% of gays wouldn’t, does it make a policy of banning gay scoutmasters justifiable? Does it make any more sense than banning blacks from shopping malls because a larger percent of them shoplift?

[Kahonek]

Nah... This has been out for quite a while now. I think it came out mid 2012 and has been gone through repeatedly by both left and right. Not sure why the “new” headline at FRC. Here’s a link to an interview with Regnerus where he discusses the dust up:

Phil Robertson has more sense and a working moral compass than many so called “Christian” clergy who are really followers of the church of liberalism which is led by the father of lies.

We need to rely on our own media to counteract the liberal media which can include church sermons and newsletters, local conservative newspapers, conservative radio, the internet etc. Conservativism may not have the large audiences that liberalism has but we can begin to separate ourselves from the artificial liberal media world. People are waking up, the liberals are trying very hard to stick their thumbs in our eyes at every opportunity. There really is a war going on for the soul of America.

Thank you Duck Dynasty!

We know that homosexuality comes from damaged relationships within families. Healing of those families by conselors who know what to look for can do much to help families while keeping children from becoming damaged human beings.
