Everyone who has had substantial contact with the male homosexual crowd knows that there is a very high incidence of child grooming, molestation, and outright rape. They deny the two things are related but we know better from observation.
“They deny the two things are related...”
At the very minimum, they are related because their community generally tolerates such behavior. If some church, or sports team, or social club were found to tolerate known pedophiles as members, and even to defend them, the whole group would be judged guilty on that alone.
