COLORADO SPRINGS, Co., April 26 /Christian Wire Service/ -- A third of homosexuals’ children become homosexual. That’s the major finding from the largest study of adult children of homosexuals. Children of transsexuals were also more apt to become homosexual or transsexual. At least 23 (30%) of 77 adult children of homosexuals were homosexual and 25 (32%) heterosexual. Of 10 adults with transsexual parents, at least one became transsexual and another homosexual.
“Our society has been told by gays and professional associations that children were not more apt to become homosexual if their parents were. We’ve been told that genital mutilations by parents who pretend to be the opposite sex wouldn’t have any effect on their children,” said investigator Paul Cameron. “Too much bogus information about homosexual parents has been sold to the public. Most people think homosexual parents create an environment that stimulates homosexual desires in their children. We expect children to be confused when a father decides to pretend he’s a woman and demand that his family participate in his charade. The American Psychological Association and National Association of Social Workers have told court after court that common sense is wrong. They say foster care and adoption by homosexuals is absolutely harmless -- there is no correlation between children adopting homosexual tastes and the sexual proclivities of their parents. Examination of three published reports by pro-gay investigators shows the falsity of these claims. These professional associations seem more interested in pushing for social acceptance of homosexuality than what’s good for children.”
Almost all other estimates have been based on small samples of children and teens, not adults. At least 12 (55%) of 22 daughters and 3 (21%) of 14 sons of lesbians; 5 (29%) of 17 daughters and 3 (17%) of 18 sons of gays were currently homosexual. At least 25 (32%) were currently heterosexual.
Dr. Cameron is chairman of the Family Research Institute, a Colorado Springs, CO think-tank. The study is published on-line in the Journal of Biosocial Science 2006;38:413-418, sponsored by Cambridge University Press.
Homosexuality is a bahavior, not a status.
ROFLMAO...
My thoughts exactly.
People engaged in taking a bath found to be more wet than those fully clothed.
A behavior, not a status.
Sadly, I'd wager dollars to donuts that it's likely due to the fact that from a very young age these kids are taught that it's normal and eventually engage in the behavior at a very young age. By the time they can figure things out, they're already screwed up and certainly unable to undo past indiscretions.
touche!
despite the way they are portrayed in the media (just like us, but unfortunately attracted to others of their own sex), they are overwhelmingly some of the sickest, weirdest, most disgusting people imaginable.
it has been years since i read the study, and i have yet to be able to even hint to another the things that the overwhelming majority of these people routinely do. (involving feces, urine, drugs, you name it. ugh. sick, sick, sick.
if i so much as suggested to my wife that we try something like, she would divorce me post haste. and obtain custody of the children, too, i would wager.
That would apply to the entire GBLT alphabet soup, IMHO.
Shalom.
Maybe I was saying I have a desire to rape? Do not be foolish. Everyone should have strong enough will power to control their sexual desires. How many good looking women walking down the streets or on beeches in bikinis would be raped without this control and the law.
The original meaning of the coined word "homophobic" was indeed the fear that the identity challenged had of their own behavior or desire for same.
The word means "fear of same." It does not mean fear of homosexuals. The gay "rights" people have cleverly turned the meaning around to put the onus (not Onan) of guilt/loathing on everyone else.
Nothing like an article stating the obvious truth, but few in media are interested in truth, so the deviants are allowed to use kids to further their cause. Nobody said reality isn't disgusting.
Recruitment works.
Keep checking my friend, keep checking.
Cameron really works hard give honest Christian researchers a bad name. This piece is so full of problems that it isn't funny. With his attacks on Dobson and others recently, and his blatantly unethical research practices, he is looking more and more like a self-consumed attention seeker.
What he basically did in this paper is take a few books written by pop authors who interviewed kids and "analyze" the interviews. Interestingly, the author of one of the original books, Abigail Garner, has responded "I had made a point of having a roughly even number of straight kids and second generation [gay, bisexual or transgender – ed.] kids so that both views would be evenly represented in the book. In other words, because of the goals of my book, I deliberately aimed to have 50% of the kids interviewed to be queer. Not because it is statistically reflective of the population, but to give it balance of perspective."
There's a biased, but reasonably coherent critique of this article here:

The sample size is small, but that's not the issue here. The difference is definitely significant, but that's not the issue either. The issue is that this sample was never even close to representative (see above). When you start with a non-representative sample, it doesn't matter how big it is, or how significant your effect is. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
All efforts will be made to block any larger studies. Dontcha think?
They had to do a study becaue the activism outcome based studies were being ARE being used in the courts to promote homosexual sex partner based second parent adoptions.
IOW a situation where a homosexual has adopted or produced a child and then seeks to have their sex partner be the second parent.
26 states prohibit or limit such adoptions
SIX (6) states prohibit or limit homosexuals from adopting AT ALL
ALL 50 STATES allow evidence of the homosexual lifestyle's destructivness to be introduced in custody cases. (often requiring no overnight visitation, supervised visitation, or even no contact IF fought for.)
You have to have these studies because you have too many wacko liberals who sit on the bench ready to buy hook line and sinker the homopropaganda.
We DO know.
It is not genentic.
The LOOKing you judge upon is utterly irrelevant. This is like the pre-dna days when a child that "looked" like the alleged father was determined to be the father in part because the child looked like him.
You are confusing ugly looking people with sexual behavior.
Homosexuality is a chosen behavior PERIOD. it is only about recreational sex. It is a fetish like any other sexual fetish. Their appearance is irrelevant.
Your though equals gene arguemnt is absoluly wrong.
This is the same BS line the british liberal was using to say conservatism was a mental disorder which could be scientifially diagnosed.
The objective in that study included discussions of why conservative parents could have their children taken away for trying to raise their children with conservative (a/k/a no left wing) perspective thought.
You perspective does not consider the long term prison population which seeks "relief" in ways counter to the normal behavior. Nor does it consider the potential brain damage which may be done when a child has a trauma at hands of a homosexual. Nor does it consider the fact the brain can have a fluidity in its maturation, developement and even change over time as the human being has different life experiences.
If anything your example points out that molester condidtioning of abused children leads to the vast majority of adult homosexuals.
What you cite as sick behavior is why homosexuals can have a hard time obtaining custody when they come "out" late in life.
The expert testimony of the homosexual lifestyle and is bizare abnormal practices are devastating to a child custody claim of a homosexual. It ends up being tantamount to an animal sex fetishist saying to the Judge that sex with the family dog is normal and healthy for all involved and ok for the children to know about and aspire to. Not going to happen.
HOwever, you have to fight for it.
Often times the homosexual will back down. Sometimes you don't even have to go there because children represent thier old non-hedonism based life choice.
