The Gay 90s: What the Empirical Evidence Reveals About Homosexuality

The author, an established psychological researcher whose contribtions appear regularly in scholarly journals, makes an overview over studies concerning homosexual behavior. Evidence abound that the homosexual life-style is associated with numerous pathologies. Consider these examples:* 20-30% of all child molestations are homosexual in nature, although gays comprise 1-3% of the population.* Gays are dramatically overrepresented in crime statistics. According to one source, about half of the young murderers in Washington state have been involved in homosexuality.* The average life span for homosexuals is 42 years - aids-victims NOT counted. Taking into account those who die in aids, the average is 39 years. * Two independent surveys show that aids has caused gays to reduce the number of partners from about 70 to ca 50 annually. Most gays say that more than half of their partners have been one night-stands. Only 4% claimed to have had only one partner during the past twelve months.The author does not claim that most gays are dangerous, but points to the fact that various abnormalities, including violent crimes, are highly overrepresented among homosexuals, which suggests that it is a harmfull disorder. He also shows that sexual orientation is not immutable - in fact most gays report having changed sexual orientation one or several times during their life.Of related interest is the books by Gerard van den Aardweg, a Dutch psychotherapist who has worked with therapy for gays for thirty years.
