Federal Distortion Of Homosexual Footprint (Ignoring Early Gay Death?)
Christian Newswire ^ | April 10 | Christian Newswire

Are Governments Misreporting To Advance Gay Rights?

PHILADELPHIA, April 10 /Christian Newswire/ -- According to Drs. Paul and Kirk Cameron of Family Research Institute, a Colorado think tank, governments in three countries have exaggerated the percentage of homosexuals in the general population.

In 2003, Statistics Canada examined a random sample of 121,300 adults and reported that 1.7% were bi/homosexual. Yet because of a decline in incidence from about 2% of adults aged in their 20s and 30s to a third of one percent among the old, inclusion of respondents aged 60+ yields an estimate of 1.4% who engage in homosexual behavior.

In 2005, the US National Center for Health Statistics interviewed a random sample of 11,571 younger adults, but misreported the findings. The question asked respondents about "ever having" had a same-sex experience. According to the analysis, "[a] bout 6.5 percent of men 25-44 years of age have had oral or anal sex with another man... 11 percent of women 25-44 years of age reported having had a sexual experience with another woman."

These statements were inaccurate: the questions that generated these statistics were about lifetime same- sex sexual activity, not merely sex with adults (e.g., for men "ever done any of the following with another male" [6% 'ever', but 2.9% in last 12 months -- only 1.6% exclusively with men], and for women "ever had any sexual experience of any kind with another female" (p. 9) [11.2%; 4.4% in last 12 months – only 1.3% exclusively with female(s)]). Thus most 'homosexuals' also had sexual relations with the opposite sex. In 2005, the British Department of Trade and Industry said "a wide range of research" indicated "lesbian, gay and bisexual people constitute 5-7% of the total adult population." Yet surveys which include adults of all ages put the prevalence closer to 1-2%.

Dr. Paul Cameron, of the Family Research Institute, a Colorado-based think tank, said these were "Curious mistakes and omissions for well-funded bureaucracies charged with reporting the truth, but certainly in harmony with activists' attempts to swell their numbers and hide their early average age of death."

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.

It would appear there are a lot more people who are curious and experiment in homosexual activities than are actually full blown homosexuals. You would think that if this was all genetics almost all people who engage in homosexual acts would in fact be exclusively homosexual. This doesn't fit the propaganda.

Extending the studies to the 60+ age range is an interesting choice. Especially given the higher mortality rates of gays since AIDS arrived on the scene 20 years ago. I would expect to find most of the gays in the 18-40 age range. That said, I never believed the percentage of gays was much over about 2%. The few that I knew an San Diego wanted to believe the number was 10%. Places like San Francisco are statistical anomalies as the place actively invites and encourages the behavior.

"ever done any of the following with another male",

I'd be interested in the results if the word "willingly" was included.

“Especially given the higher mortality rates of gays since AIDS arrived on the scene 20 years ago.”

Actually, gays have always had higher mortality rates according to what I’ve read. AIDS just made the situation even worse.

Simply put, unprotected anal sex is unhealthy and eventually fatal if practiced on a regular basis. There’s good reason for sanitary practices concerning human wastes. How much basic good health sense are these people ignoring?

I believe it was life insurance companies who first figured out that gays die early, even before there was AIDS.

Of course. Where do you think heterosexual AIDS comes from?

I don't know what the age distribution of gay people is, but I have two friends in geriatric care who tell me assisted care facilities catering to gay seniors are the latest ticket for that industry to make some money.

About a month or so back, i read a news story about the gay Mecca, Sahn Fransisco, and in particular it’s infamous “Gay Nieghborhoods”. It seems that many of the residents, in these neighborhoods, are upset, because so many new residents
and businesses who have moved in, are heterosexuals or are businesses run by hetero sexuals, and not of the LBG&T
“community”. The long time LGB&T types, want to keep their neighborhoods as “diverse” as tghey have been for the last 40 years, but even though they are as such, the “Gay Mecca”
and act as a magnet for people likeminded appetites...They are becoming, a smaller, and smaller, demographic
in their fortress bastions....Could it be, that their
lifestyle, is causing them to die off at a much earlier and higher rate than the perversion agenda pushing MSM, will dare tell anyone about?...

...That the homosexuals are dropping like flies?

I was on my way to my boss' place in SF. I had to poo, but didn't want to arrive and have that be the first thing I did upon arriving:

I was driving near the beach, in SF. I caught sight of a public bathroom there ---this was about 2 pm, on Saturday.

I'm walking up to the bathroom, and a HUGE sign says stuff like, "This premisis strictly patrolled by SFPD, no lewd behavior tolerated", and I'm kind of chuckling to myself, cuz with a huge, overbearing warning like that, who would pull anything...?

I go in there, and the weird thing is there are NO DOORS on any of the shi*ters. Like basic training, or something.

I pass the first stall, and WHAT is in the 2nd stall?

A NAKED GAY DUDE, JUST STANDING THERE.

If homosexuality was all about genetics and not about the male desire for sexual gratification being so great the male would do almost anything, you wouldn’t have so many guys in prison having sex with other guys.

After all, even the homosexual lobby won’t argue that most criminals are homosexuals.

Early Gay Death?

I hereby propose that whenever a famous homosexual dies, we on FR refer to it as a death due to EGD. LOL!

Does this mean that we can count all the homos who have ever had one hetero encounter as straight?

No it does not work that way. The Gay logic says the 1.2% who are exclusive are the honest gays and the 4.4% who have just dabbled in it are gay but oppressing their true feelings.

Florists and interior decorators probably stood out as hazardous occupations on the actuary tables until someone made the connection.

Sharing needles with IV drug users and bisexuals.

Bingo Bango.

You want the truth with respect to anything statistical regarding humans, ask a life insurance actuarial.

Where there is profit motive, there is candor.

That’s a good point...here is link to a discussion on that topic that pretty much touched all the bases.

"for men "ever done any of the following with another male" [6% 'ever', but 2.9% in last 12 months -- only 1.6% exclusively with men], and for women "ever had any sexual experience of any kind with another female" (p. 9) [11.2%; 4.4% in last 12 months – only 1.3% exclusively with female(s)]" If you've had sex with someone of the same sex in the last 12 months then you should be counted as gay. So 2.9% for men and 4.4% for women. The real discovery here is the much higher incidence of bisexuality in women vs. men. Women are also about twice as likely to have experimented with homosexuality as men. BUT men are slightly more likely to be exclusively gay. These numbers refute the 10% number that you hear about and fall in line with the more reasonable 3-5% range. However it also reveals Lesbianism is much more common than one generally thinks.
