(But Report Shows Researchers Concealing Information)
A licensed psychologist with both clinical and forensic practice outreaches is warning that it appears children of homosexual couples are seven times more likely to develop "non-heterosexual preferences" than other children, but lawmakers establishing policy often don't know that because the researchers have concealed their discoveries.
"Research although not definitive, suggests that children reared by openly homosexual parents are far more likely to engage in homosexual behavior than children raised by others," said the online report by Trayce L. Hansen.
Studies she reviewed suggest children raised by homosexual or bisexual parents "are approximately seven times more likely than the general population to develop a non-heterosexual sexual preference."
The "studies thus far find that between 8 percent and 21 percent of homosexually parented children ultimately identify as non-heterosexual," the psychologist wrote. "For comparison purposes, approximately 2 percent of the general population are non-heterosexual. Therefore, if these percentages continue to hold true, children of homosexuals have a 4 to 10 times greater likelihood of developing a non-heterosexual preference than other children."
However, those researchers who found such differences "nonetheless declared in their research summaries that no differences were found," the report said.

Did they spend a billion dollars on this study?
Sounds suspiciously like “nurture,” not “nature”.
Danger, danger, politically incorrect statement!!!!
Seriously--this sentence should be reworded!
A tremendous amount of the activity that homosexual activists engage in should be seen as recruitment. The school curriculum stuff is NOT about toleranace or decreasing bullying. It’s about recruitment. The right to adopt is not about having a family. It’s about recuitment.
Queers can’t reproduce.....they must recruit!
Like most everything human, I think it’s more of a gray area. Some kids are born with their brains mis-wired to be attracted to the wrong gender. Others are indoctrinated.
This is impossible! All the stories you see on 20/20 and such indicate that these kids always grow up straight, and that the absense of both a mother and father is inconsequential. And of course gays don’t recruit, and they’re never gay due to previous childhood abuse. Am I missing anything?
Why flame you for the truth? We’re not liberals here...
I would add that that “influence” resulting in a gay adult often involves childhood sexual abuse. That study would never be allowed to be done or released, but who doubts that conclusion?
As if they needed a study to figure that out.
And I suppose a kid growing up is more likely to adopt the “religion” of the parents as well.
DUH...
Not that there's anything wrong with that!
“Some kids are born with their brains mis-wired to be attracted to the wrong gender.”
B.S.
FYI
If there were a gay gene they would be able to procreate based on Darwinism.
Actually one is gay only for the duration of the act itself; all the rest is stage dressing.
Not on this site you won't.
I think that we are all born unique. Some types are “prone” to gayness- i.e. passive or effiminate men and dominant powerful women.
If you’ve ever experienced youngsters you know that they show early on the personality traits which they’ll carry for life.
I think it is chemical. I say this because while I’m athletic and fairly aggressive, I’ve never had the “killer” instinct. After taking prednosone (steroids) for an injusry, I “got it.” I understood how the bad asses must feel. I felt like I could but my head through a wall- and I WANTED to!!
Oh...thanks. That clarifies everything.
“I was reared by homosexuals and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.”
