I have a hard time seeing it too, because there's every reason it seems to me that even if generational differences in 'coming out' were skewing the life expectancies lower in this study, the gay men should
still be dying earlier than the lesbians, just because of AIDS.
Strange..
I spoke with Dr. Paul Cameron about 30 minutes ago. He said the reasons for lesbian deaths were various. He gave me a list but I couldn't write them down fast enough. Of the list I wrote down, he said lesbians die from various cancers, violent deaths, car crashes, murder and falling off things.
As I said, there were other reasons but I couldn't get them all. Still, I'm surprised with the findings.
Cameron listed off some of his credentials which I didn't get a chance to write down. Of his credentials he said something about being a reviewer for the British Psychological Reports (or some similar name). The Canadian Medical Association and others. I'll see if I can get more info.
