PHILADELPHIA, Apr. 5 /Christian Newswire/ -- Marriage between a man and woman seems to result in longer life for both. Does it work that way for gay marriage?
"No," says Dr. Paul Cameron of the Family Research Institute, a Colorado-based think tank.
Researchers Paul and Kirk Cameron reported at the Eastern Psychological Association convention that married gays and lesbians lived about 24 fewer years than their married heterosexual counterparts.
In Denmark, the country with the longest history of gay marriage, for 1990-2002, married heterosexual men died at a median age of 74, while the 561 partnered gays died at an average age of 51.
In Norway, married heterosexual men died at an average age of 77 yr., the 31 gays at 52. The lifespan of same-sex married lesbians was 20+ years shorter than the lifespan of married heterosexual women. In Denmark, married heterosexual women died at an average age of 78 yr. as compared to 56 yr. for the 91 same-sex married lesbians; in Norway, married heterosexual women died at an average age of 81 v. 56 for the 6 same-sex married lesbians.
"These are the ages of death as reported by the census bureaus of Norway and Denmark," said Dr. Paul Cameron. "While the internet is filled with debate about our previous findings -- largely based on obituaries -- these deaths were recorded by governments. The obituaries we assembled over the same time period in the US were similar: an average lifespan of 52 for 710 gays who ostensibly did not die of AIDS, 42 yr. for those 1,476 who supposedly did; and 55 yr. for 143 lesbians. So the findings from Scandinavia are not much different from figures derived from U.S. obituaries."
Paul Cameron, Ph.D. & Kirk Cameron, Ph.D., presented "Federal Distortion Of The Homosexual Footprint." Paul Cameron, a reviewer for the British Medical Journal, the Canadian Medical Association Journal, and the Postgraduate Medical Journal, has published over 40 scientific articles on homosexuality. The EPA is the oldest regional Psychological Association in the United States. At its Philadelphia convention members presented the latest advances in scientific work to colleagues.

You must not hang out with Drew Barrymore then, because she is pretty wild. :O)
You’re welcome. As I said, this mortality research is 15 years old, give or take, because I left my former employer (a major life insurance company) to do the Mom Thing twelve years ago. (The Precipitating Cause turned 13 on Friday :-).
Violence, substance abuse and suicide.
Bingo. Also auto accident and household fire.
Homosexual inclination is a statistical marker for risk-taking behavior.
Smoking is the same, actually - most smokers do not die of smoking-related illness. It’s a “marker” for other high-risk lifestyle choices.
Politicians ignore reports from the CDC when pandering to deviants brings more votes than listening to science. It is called taking guidance from Hollywood and the sicko crowd. Now, if one simply replaces homos with IV drug users, politicians might squawk.
There is a considerable identity of homosexuals with illegal drug users. That's one reason the mortality stats match up.
No. They're too busy worrying about smoking which might take off an average of seven years of a smoker's life.
“with aids I can understand that male gays would die young but why would lesbians die young?”
I can understand why the figures would be skewed for gays due to aids. But I suspect that oneof the reasons lesbians dkie young is because so many of them are apple shaped fat.
F A G S !!!!

**Report: “Married” Homosexuals Die 24 Years Younger**
Hmmmm.
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The moderators agree with you-—his hateful post was removed.
For starters, lesbians have a higher BMI (body mass index), which is associated with higher mortality.
The question is, do they have a higher BMI because they are lesbians, or are they lesbians because they have a higher BMI?
Both gay men and gay women have a reputation for being quick to fight and very unstable emotions. Gay men have a tendency to get drunk and beat eachother up. It’s like they are stuck in junior high mode as far as relationships go.
My theory is they die young from being impulsive and quick to anger and self destructive.
