Lesbian and bisexual women are dying much younger than their straight peers, according to a new study.

During the survey, recently published in JAMA, Harvard researchers pulled from a previous study of women who worked as nurses and were born between 1945 and 1964, 90,833 of whom had disclosed their sexuality. Of those, 89,821 (98.9 percent) identified as heterosexual, 694 (0.8 percent) identified as lesbian, and 318 (0.4 percent) identified as bisexual.

When compared with heterosexual participants, LGB participants showed earlier mortality. Bisexual women had the shortest life expectancy, dying 37 percent sooner than heterosexual women. Lesbian women died 20 percent sooner, with LGB women overall dying 26 percent sooner than straight women.

Agreed. What does “died 20% sooner” even mean? It can be interpreted several different ways.

Because they kill each other more often.

As soon as I read the title, I knew it was what you commented. Always someone else’s fault.

I am wearing Wrangler jeans right now(heterosexual male). That is all I buy since I stopped buying Levis about ten years ago.

They go on sale at Tractor Supply for about $14.99-16.99.

I buy Wranglers because they are made in either Mexico or in Losetho. FYI, Lestho(I had to look up where it was) is that fine country totally surrounded by South Africa. I am sure it is a beautiful country to live and work in a sweat shop making garments for $2/day.

I have had similar experience except that the “lipstick lesbian” was the needle in the haystack. Pretty rare commodity.

My wife and daughter both show and breed dogs. They show them at confirmation shows like you see on TV. There is a much larger percentage of gay men and women in the dog show business than the normal population. There are also a lot of middle aged and older women whose kids have left the nest.

This is because DOGS GIVE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE to their owners.
They do not judge. They do not care if you are queer, bisexual, straight, black, white, Asian. It does not matter to the dog. Those dogs are their substitute babies. Now CATS, they are judgemental.

In all the gay men and women I know from dog shows, I can only think of one or two lipstick lesbians. There are tons of bull dykes and big fat lesbians. There are also a lot of gay men who are very good looking, but they like young boys. You want to watch your son around them.

FYI, in the movie “Best in Show” the characters were based on real people.

The number of people who can attribute their obesity to hormonal issues is miniscule compared to the number who simply eat too much. Maybe it’s possible that lesbians tend toward a co-morbidity of hormonal imbalances and weight gain. That is an interesting research question (that will never be pursued).

It’s remarkable how hormonal imbalances can be spotted in a supermarket checkout line.

Every gay or lesbian person I have ever know turn out to emotional trainwrecks and mental basket cases once you spend any amount of time around them. Not sure if every single one out there is a nutcase but mental issues seem to go hand in hand with homosexuality.

Yes, when everything on the belt has PROCESSED SUGAR in it. You are what you eat.

Lately the Mrs, is checking every package for GMOs. We are trying not to buy any product made with GMO wheat/grains, etc.
It is in almost everything. Of course, it is in really small lettering on the package. The other thing now is they put the symbol/thingy(technical term)that you read with the camera of your smart phone. It is a computer link that takes you to their website where there is a list of ingredients. This is how they get around listing the contents on the package.

The democrat solution, like every one they push to eliminate a gap that involves reducing everyone to the loser level, would be to start eliminating straight women through denial of care or some other method.

I don’t believe the marginalization theory, but, assuming arguendo it has merit, if these women didn’t feel the need to announce their preference, the environment would be more salubrious. Maybe they’re marginalized because their demand for attention just pisses people off.

It’s always the same when one insists on publicly “coming out”: Why do I need to know that?

Pat Buchanan once said the secret that doesn’t dare say it’s name now won’t shut up.

I suspect that’s what pisses people off.

I’ve also come to the conclusion that there is indeed a difference between women who have sex with women on occassion and “lesbians.” The latter are essentially an ideological and/or cultural community. Different with gay men who are usually one and the same.

We are getting to a point where the processed sugar is about the healthiest thing in most foods. That is not good. My great grandparents probably ingested zero soy their entire lives. Now, GMO soy is nearly impossible to avoid.

My stepfather (deceased) went to med school in the 1940’s; he kept his textbooks and his psychiatry textbook plainly stated that homosexuals had shorter lifespans than normal people.

Not sure if every single one out there is a nutcase but mental issues seem to go hand in hand with homosexuality.

My experience has revealed that fact too.

Year ago, I was an associate of several homosexual men through work, and I became familiar with them and their homosexual friends and associates (the networks are VERY large and homogeneous in their proclivities.) I even attended a few dinner parties and events heavily attended by these men. Almost without exception, they readily admitted to being on one or more psychotropic drugs for depression, bi-polar anger issues, or anxiety. They all had deep-seated anger issues, frequently most sharply directed toward their parents and other immediate family members.

They all had long-standing relationships with a psychotherapist, who seemed to only confirm them in their static state of mental illness. My guess is the therapists were all homosexual as well.
