I got blocked as well so I'll answer your question here.

Medical care is necessary and that topic is not relevant to the discussion. Homosexuality is unnatural because 2 of the same gender (obviously) cannot produce offspring. Its wrong and immoral because God said so and because its a mental illness that can be treated. Instead of trying to help and treat these people we just entertain their illness.

the user blocked me so I can't respond.... I guess he is against free speech.

Finally, a 3rd by those authors (Shrier & Johnson), which used the same sample population of 40 and about 20 more is quoted below:
"It was Finkelhor's impression that the boy who has been molested by a man may label the experience as homosexual and mispererceive himself as homosexual based on his having been found sexually attractive by an older man. Once self-labelled as homosexual, the boy may later place himself in situations that leave him open to homosexual activity. It should be emphasized that the vast majority of homosexuals do not report childhood sexual experiences and also the vast majority of male pedophiles do not regard themselves as homosexual."
J Natl Med Assoc. 1988 80(11), 1189--1193.

So it would seem that the people who did the studies your quote is based upon do not even share your conclusion.
If you want to debate, PM me with 1 point at a time. Don't just be lazy and copy and paste off the net.

Regarding G.B. Slap, "Sexual Abuse of Boys," JAMA, Dec. 2, 1998, p. 1859.
80% of the 40 were black... so if we assume correlations are automatically causations then we know that being molested turns you black. Or, if you prefer, being black gets you molested.

Those who would admit to being homosexual would be far more likely to also admit to being molested, as both are taboos, which many people would not feel comfortable admitting to, especially in the 1980s,when those two studies were conducted.

@ WhopokedOprah
Regarding G.B. Slap, "Sexual Abuse of Boys," JAMA, Dec. 2, 1998, p. 1859. Here is a more complete quote from your source...
"Abused adolescents, particularly those victimized by males, were up to 7 times more likely to self-identify as gay or bisexual than peers who had not been abused (P<.001).83-84​ No longitudinal studies examined the causal relationship between abuse and gender role or sexual orientation, however. Gender role nonconformity and gay or bisexual identity may precede abuse. For example, males exploring their sexual identity may do so in venues, such as public sex environments, where abuse may happen more frequently."

Your source is actually a review, with it's references 83 & 84 being the source of your stat. Those 2 studies are by the same 2 authors (Shrier and Johnson) and also on the same tiny sample population of 40. tbc

@bayonetsluts I deleted 3/4 of your comments here. 1 because I've already responded to it on one of my videos, 1 because it made the same general (flawed) point as the others and was not a study but a book produced by an anti-gay organization, not a scientific authority and the other because again, it was just a point based upon disproportionate child molestation.

The paedophilia section in the first URL in my "About Me" section responds to this fully. Attraction stratified according to age is distinct from attraction stratified according to gender. The researchers who's work is used to make the claim that homosexuals are more likely to be molesters actually explicitly disagree with that claim...

A study by Abel et al of 377 nonincarcerated, non-incest-related pedophiles, found that heterosexual pedophiles on average reported abusing 19.8 children and committing 23.2 acts, whereas homosexual pedophiles had abused 150.2 children and committed 281.7 acts. These studies confirm law enforcement reports about the serial nature of the crime, Abel GG,

keep you gayness to yourself - we don't want to know about it - our kids don;t need to know about it.

Hey, I just wanted to say that I really like how you fight for homosexual rights by trying to explain its "okayness" logically, and how you take the time to answer peoples posts:). That's it!
