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.

What you are forgetting is that they only find a very small percentage of people who are in a gay lifstyle past the age of 50 or 60 it is a very low percentage. And less tham 2% of pop. claims they are homosexual. New numbers just came out confirming this, as opposed to the gay community that claimed it was 10% and tried to propagandise it.
Just goes to show you that too much angry chick music will kill you.
Lighten up? we need to use our tongue wisely!
That married homosexual or even hetro marriages that arent done Gods ways are founded on lies. The homosexual so called marriage is nothing more than a menas to degregate what is normal logic and what has been set up by God. In other words perversion!
You get that right tax chick!!!! That is it exactly and they are obviously doing it on purpose and the naive fall for it.
That'll do.
I guess.
For now.
I’ve always heard that Married Males don’t live longer - it just seems longer! This article could change that “old wives” tale.
Yes, very different.
It is different because only a small percent of heteros go to night clubs. An even smaller percent of hetero couples get wasted in public then beat eachother up.
This seems to be normal behavior for gays.
I am not talking about young twenty year olds here, either. I’m talking about thirties and forties. Real adults.
It is different because only a small percent of heteros go to night clubs...
Where do they go?
Anecdotal ....
But there are also efforts to increase insurance premiums for smokers because their lifestyle increases insurance costs...would they also increase insurance costs for homosexuals on the same grounds?
furthermore, why are they then attempting to make it illegal to smoke in one's own home if it's just secondhand smoke that's the concern?
Got
Aids
Yet?
If they would just go back in the closet..........
They take their kids to kid stuff.
Yeah, you can’t take kids to nightclubs. They always order embarrassing drinks and don’t tip.
This is all antidotal however.
you mean anecdotal.. but in the context of this thread it almost makes sense.
Well, certain risk factors will affect insurance premiums. I don’t know how the insurance industry deals with homosexual life expectancy. They may have other means to factor for the increased risk, such as medical history.
As for secondhand smoke- I should have qualified that. The initial excuse to meddle is the public good, but the goal is for the State to run your life since the elite are of course smarter than you and know what’s best for you.
Wow you sure do get around.
I agree.
