Hughes and her research team wondered if sexual-minority women and men are at a heightened risk for victimization substance abuse. The results, Hughes said, showed that they are.

Queerness and substance abuse are only related in a manner defined by a single word that my brain can not at this moment come up with. Cognizance and tangential are close, but in no way proper here.

Unfortunately, queers are simply queer. The correlation with substance abuse to homos sexual relates in kind with heterosexual girls abused by normal boys after a few wine coolers; difference being the former is rare, and the latter will happen to every teen female at the first opportunity that presents.

The few female FReepers out there, kick one in for the girls here... Every man denies, and lies, but every last one of you knows that of which I speak.

The only significance is that there are number of people manipulated by momentary life choice to abuse substance, thus allowing an individuals developing sexual orientation to be confused or manipulated by the queer.

Waste of money, waste of intellect.
