Data was extracted on 214,344 heterosexual and 11,971 non heterosexual people. Meta-analyses revealed a two fold excess in suicide attempts
in lesbian, gay and bisexual people [pooled risk ratio for lifetime risk 2.47 (CI 1.87, 3.28)]. The risk for depression and anxiety disorders
(over a period of 12 months or a lifetime) on meta-analyses were at least 1.5 times higher in lesbian, gay and bisexual people (RR range
1.54–2.58) and alcohol and other substance dependence over 12 months was also 1.5 times higher (RR range 1.51–4.00). Results were similar both sexes but meta analyses revealed that lesbian and bisexual women were particularly at risk of substance dependence (alcohol 12 months:
RR 4.00, CI 2.85, 5.61; drug dependence: RR 3.50, CI 1.87, 6.53; any substance use disorder RR 3.42, CI 1.97–5.92), while lifetime prevalence

longer relevant or feared receiving unwanted media attention. Two psychoanalysts had died and one declined to be interviewed. We interviewed
12 psychiatrists, 16 psychologists, one nurse specialist, and one electrician who had developed electric shock equipment. All but two had
worked in the NHS.
Method:
All participants gave written, informed consent to take part. We had previously identified professionals who had published research in this
specialty1 and asked each to name other professionals who had administered treatments or were knowledgeable about them. We also used
professional contacts, advertisements, articles, and programmes in the national media and names given by participants in the accompanying
paper (Online First, bmj.com). GS and MK used tape recorded, in depth interviews to explore professionals' personal and professional
backgrounds; how they had become expert with particular treatments; and their attitudes to their work at the time and changes in their
attitudes since that time.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC344258/SUMMARY
We present here the treatment of thirteen homosexuals by behaviour modification techniques. With classical electrical aversion and positive
conditioning 8(61%) out of thirteen patients showed a change in orientation lasting on a six-month 1 year follow up. A marriageable age and
indirect social pressures were positively correlated with improvement whereas the presence of a steady homosexual partner and habitual
passive anal intercourse indicated a poor response. The techniques, the assessments, the onset and course of improvement and complications
arc discussed. Our results and techniques are compared with those of other workers.

Storm clouds are growing in the treatment literature. Although it may seem that the battle over the diagnoses and treatment of homosexuality
is over, that is an illusion. A new threat to gay people has arisen resulting from the work of biomedical research in the United States and
Germany. These researchers have introduced a whole range of theories and treatments that can be used either to prevent the development of
homosexuality or to eliminate it in adults. Three techniques for identifying the cause of, and then eliminating, homosexuality has been
described: surgical techniques, use of hormones, and prenatal research. Each derives from the belief that biology is destiny.
Homosexuals are at least three times more likely to have mental health conditions. (1)
Homosexuals are seven times more likely to commit suicide. (2) According to the author of the medical reference book, Saunders Pocket
Reference for Nurses, homosexuality is more deadly than smoking, alcoholism, or drug addiction. (3) Men and women in same-sex marriages have
a shorter life-span than the general population. (10) The International Journal of Epidemiology says that life expectancy for gay and
bisexual men is about sixteen years less than for all men. (9) Furthermore, the risk of life-threatening disease in the homosexual community
is greater than the medical risk of any activity for any comparable group. (8) According to a study performed by the Kinsey Institute, gay
men are more likely to suffer erectile dysfunction than heterosexual men. (11) Given that homosexuality is associated with a general
elevation of risk for anxiety, mood, and substance use disorders and for suicidal thoughts and plans, (12) it logically follows that
homosexuality is associated with an impairment of parenting ability. Furthermore, recreational drug use is more common in gay and lesbian
people than in the heterosexual population, and lesbians are at greater risk of alcohol problems than heterosexual women. (13)

According to Gary Remafedi, M.D., of the University of Minnesota Department of Paediatrics, there "is evidence of a strong association
between suicide risk and bisexuality or homosexuality [...]" (4) Also, John Bailey, PhD, in his commentary on a couple meta-analytic studies,
says "These studies contain arguably the best published data on the association between homosexuality and psychopathology, and both converge
on the same unhappy conclusion: homosexual people are at a substantially higher risk for some forms of emotional problems, including
suicidality, major depression, and anxiety disorder." (1) According to the U.S. government, homosexual youths are twice as likely as
heterosexuals to attempt suicide. (2) This report is consistent with the findings of Stephen T. Russell, PhD and Kara Joyner, PhD, who found
that homosexuals of both genders are 200% more likely to attempt suicide. (3)
According to a Switzerland study, almost 2/3 of homosexual men are "affected by psychiatric morbidity with new evidence for comorbidity,
subthreshold disorders, and low levels of awareness of psychiatric disorders and their treatment. This population needs to be a priority psychiatric epidemiology and mental public health." (11)

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17450453http://theroadtoemmaus.org/RdLb/22SxSo/PnSx/HSx/MolestChild-BaldwinS.html Research on the homosexual lifestyle confirms it is almost
exclusively a youth oriented culture. Very few gays exhibit a preference for older men. Some admit to a focus on teenage boys, some on
prepubescent boys, and many cross over between categories. All are subsets of the homosexual deviancy. Moreover, most pedophiles consider
themselves to be gay. In a 1988 study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, 86% of pedophiles described themselves as homosexual bisexual. Child prostitution expert Dr. Jennifer James reports that the number of boy prostitutes who identify themselves as homosexuals risen from 10% to 60% in the last fifteen years
Studies have shown that years of smoking shortens the lifespan of the smoker from 1 to 7 years. But analysis of the age of death in Norway
and Denmark for gays who are legally married suggests that engaging in homosexual behavior reduces the lifespan by 24 years!
In Denmark, the country with the longest history of gay marriage, for 1990-2002, married heterosexual men died at a median age of 74yr.,
while the 561 partnered gays died at an average age of 51.
In Norway, married heterosexual men died at an average age of 77 and the 31 gays at 52 yr. In Denmark, married women died at an average age
of 78 yr. compared to 56 yr. for the 91 lesbians. In Norway, women married to men died at an average age of 81. v. 56 for the 6 lesbians.
"The consistency of reduced lifespan for those engaging in homosexuality is significant," said Dr. Cameron. "The same pattern of early death
turned up whether we looked at obituaries in the U.S. or deaths in marriage. Given the greatly reduced lifespan for homosexuals, school
children should be strongly and consistently warned about the dangers of homosexuality even more so than smoking. Those school districts
which are introducing pro-gay curricula need to rethink their priorities."

[bleep] fellate almost 100% of their sexual contacts and ingest semen from about half of those. Semen contains virtually every germ carried the blood stream, so this is about equivalent to ingesting raw human blood (6).
154.
Sperm readily penetrates the anal wall (which is only one cell thick) and gains direct access to the blood stream. This causes massive
immunological damage to the body's T- and B-cell defensive systems (14).
50% of male syphilis is carried by [bleep] as a rectal infection and can enter through the urethra of another [bleep] during anal sex (7).
Around 67-80% of [bleep] lick and/or insert their tongues into the anuses of their partners (called "rimming", analingus, fecal sex, etc.) and
ingest biologically significant amounts of feces (7), which is the chief cause of hepatitis and parasitic infections among [bleep] (8). This
practice is called the "prime taste treat in sex" in the bestseller The Joy of Gay Sex.
33% of [bleep] admit to fisting (inserting the hand, sometimes part of the arm, into the rectum of his partner) (7).
Urinating on each other ("golden showers") and torture has doubled among [bleep] since the 1940s, and fisting has increased astronomically (17% of [bleep] eat and/or rub the feces of their partners on themselves (4).
12% of [bleep] give/receive enemas as part of sexual pleasure (4).
In one study, the average [bleep] fellated somewhere between 20 and 106 men, swallowed 50 seminal discharges, had 72 penile penetrations of the
anus, and ingested feces of 23 different men EVERY YEAR (6).
Many [bleep] sexual encounters occur while drunk, high on drugs, or in an orgy setting (7).
Many [bleep] don't pay heed to warnings of their lifestyles: "Knowledge of health guidelines was quite high, but this knowledge had no relation
to sexual behavior" (16).
Activities of [bleep] involve analingus "rimming, urophilia "golden showers", fisting, and using "toys" (21).
[bleep] got homosexuality removed from the list of mental illnesses in the early 70s by storming the annual American Psychiatric Association
(APA) conference on successive years. "Guerrilla theater tactics and more straight-forward shouting matches characterized their presence"
(2). Since homosexuality has been removed from the APA list of mental illnesses, so has pedophilia (except when the adult feels "subjective
distress") (27).
[bleep] account for 3-4% of all gonorrhea cases, 60% of all syphilis cases, and 17% of all hospital admissions (other than for STDs) in the
United States (5). They make up only 1-2% of the population.
[bleep] live unhealthy lifestyles, and have historically accounted for the bulk of syphilis, gonorrhea, Hepatitis B, the "gay bowel syndrome"
(which attacks the intestinal tract), tuberculosis and cytomegalovirus (27).
73% of psychiatrists say [bleep] are less happy than the average person, and of those psychiatrists, 70% say that the unhappiness is NOT due social stigmatization (13).
25-33% of [bleep] and dykes are alcoholics (11).
Of [bleep] questioned in one study, 43% admitted to 500 or more partners in a lifetime, 28% admitted to 1000 or more in a lifetime, and of these
people, 79% said that half of those partners were total strangers, and 70% of those sexual contacts were one night stands (or, as one [bleep]
admits in the film "The Castro," one minute stands) (3). Also, it is a favorite past-time of many [bleep] to go to "cruisy areas" and have
anonymous sex.
78% of [bleep] are affected by STDs (20).
Judge John Martaugh, chief magistrate of the New York City Criminal Court has said, "Homosexuals account for half the murders in large
cities" (10).
Captain William Riddle of the Los Angeles Police says, "30,000 sexually abused children in Los Angeles were victims of homosexuals" (10).
50% of suicides can be attributed to [bleep] (10).
Dr. Daniel Capron, a practicing psychiatrist, says, "Homosexuality by definition is not healthy and wholesome. The homosexual person, at
best, will be unhappier and more unfulfilled than the sexually normal person" (10). For other psychiatrists who believe that homosexuality wrong, please see National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality.

It takes approximately $300,000 to take care of each AIDS victim, so thanks to the promiscuous lifestyle of [bleep], medical insurance rates
have been skyrocketing for all of us(10).
One study reports that 90% of [bleep] have engaged in anal sex, and 66% engage in anal sex regularly (6).
[bleep] were responsible for spreading AIDS in the United States, and then raised up violent groups like Act Up and Ground Zero to complain
184.
[bleep] account for a disproportionate number of hepatitis cases: 70-80% in San Francisco, 29% in Denver, 66% in New York City, 56% in Toronto,
42% in Montreal, and 26% in Melbourne (8).
10% of [bleep] admit to eating feces and/or drinking contaminated enema water (8).
29% of [bleep] engage in urine sex (8).
37% of [bleep] engage in sadomasochism, which accounts for many accidental deaths. In San Francisco, classes were held to teach [bleep] how to kill their partners during sadomasochism (8).
In large cities, hospitals are often called on to remove objects from the rectums of [bleep]. Sometimes, the [bleep] do so much damage that they
have to wear colostomy bags for the rest of their lives (8).
41% of [bleep] say they have had sex with strangers in public restrooms, 60% say they have had sex with strangers in bathhouses, and 64% of
these encounters have involved the use of illegal drugs (8).
Depending on the city, 39-59% of [bleep] are infected with intestinal parasites like worms, flukes and amoebae, which is common in filthy third
world countries (8).
The median age of death of [bleep] is 42 (only 9% live past age 65). This drops to 39 if the cause of death is AIDS. The median age of death a married heterosexual man is 75 (8).
The median age of death of dykes is 45 (only 24% live past age 65). The median age of death of a married heterosexual woman is 79 (8).
[bleep] are 100 times more likely to be murdered (usually by another [bleep]) than the average person, 25 times more likely to commit suicide, and
19 times more likely to die in a traffic accident (8).
21% of dykes die of murder, suicide or traffic accident, which is at a rate of 534 times higher than the number of white heterosexual females
aged 25-44 who die of these things(8).
50% of the calls to a hotline to report "queer bashing" involved domestic violence (i.e., [bleep] beating up other [bleep]) (18).
About 50% of the women on death row are dykes (12).
33% of [bleep] ADMIT to minor/adult sex (7).
There is a notable [bleep] group, consisting of thousands of members, known as the North American Man and Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). This a child molesting [bleep] group whose cry is "SEX BEFORE 8 BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE." This group can be seen marching in most major [bleep] parades
across the United States.
[bleep] commit more than 33% of all reported child molestations in the United States, which, assuming [bleep] make up 2% of the population, means
that 1 in 20 [bleep] is a child molester, while 1 in 490 heterosexuals is a child molester (19).
73% of all [bleep] have had sex with boys under 19 years of age (9).
Many [bleep] admit that they are pedophiles: "The love between men and boys is at the foundation of homosexuality" (22).
Because [bleep] can't reproduce naturally, they resort to recruiting children. [bleep] can be heard chanting "TEN PERCENT IS NOT ENOUGH, RECRUIT,
RECRUIT, RECRUIT" in their [bleep] parades. A group called the "Lesbian Avengers" prides itself on trying to recruit young girls. They print RECRUIT" on their literature. Some other [bleep] aren't as overt about this, but rather try to infiltrate society and get into positions where
they will have access to the malleable minds of young children (e.g., the clergy, teachers, Boy Scout leaders, etc.) (8).
The Kinsey study of 1948, which [bleep] often cite to say that 10% of the population is homosexual, actually says that only 4% of the population
is EXCLUSIVELY homosexual. This study involved a disproportionate number of people who had been in jail for sex crimes (hardly a random
sample of the population). Kinsey also did perverse studies involving young boys and pedophiles.
Current research shows that the true percentage of [bleep] is in the 1-2% range (15,23,26,28). Consider how small this number is when compared
to most of the numbers above.
49.0% of [bleep] hold professional/managerial positions. 15.9% of the general population hold such positions (24). Where's the job
discrimination?

a. Anal-genital
Anal intercourse is the sine qua non of sex for many gay men.4 Yet human physiology makes it clear that the body was not designed to
accommodate this activity. The rectum is significantly different from the vagina with regard to suitability for penetration by a penis. The
vagina has natural lubricants and is supported by a network of muscles. It is composed of a mucus membrane with a multi-layer stratified
squamous epithelium that allows it to endure friction without damage and to resist the immunological actions caused by semen and sperm. In
comparison, the anus is a delicate mechanism of small muscles that comprise an “exit-only” passage. With repeated trauma, friction and
stretching, the sphincter loses its tone and its ability to maintain a tight seal. Consequently, anal intercourse leads to leakage of fecal
material that can easily become chronic.
The potential for injury is exacerbated by the fact that the intestine has only a single layer of cells separating it from highly vascular
tissue, that is, blood. Therefore, any organisms that are introduced into the rectum have a much easier time establishing a foothold for
infection than they would in a vagina. The single layer tissue cannot withstand the friction associated with penile penetration, resulting traumas that expose both participants to blood, organisms in feces, and a mixing of bodily fluids.
Furthermore, ejaculate has components that are immunosuppressive. In the course of ordinary reproductive physiology, this allows the sperm evade the immune defenses of the female. Rectal insemination of rabbits has shown that sperm impaired the immune defenses of the recipient.Semen may have a similar impact on humans.6
The end result is that the fragility of the anus and rectum, along with the immunosuppressive effect of ejaculate, make anal-genital
intercourse a most efficient manner of transmitting HIV and other infections. The list of diseases found with extraordinary frequency among
male homosexual practitioners as a result of anal intercourse is alarming:
Anal Cancer
Chlamydia trachomatis
Cryptosporidium
Giardia lamblia
Herpes simplex virus
Human immunodeficiency virus
Human papilloma virus
Isospora belli
Microsporidia
Gonorrhea
Viral hepatitis types B & C
Syphilis7
Sexual transmission of some of these diseases is so rare in the exclusively heterosexual population as to be virtually unknown. Others, while
found among heterosexual and homosexual practitioners, are clearly predominated by those involved in homosexual activity. Syphilis, for
example is found among heterosexual and homosexual practitioners. But in 1999, King County, Washington (Seattle), reported that 85 percent 289.
A 2010 CDC data analysis underscores the disproportionate impact of HIV and syphilis among gay and bisexual men in the United States. The
data, presented at CDC’s 2010 National STD Prevention Conference, found that the rate of new HIV diagnoses among men who have sex with men
(MSM) is more than 44 times that of other men and more than 40 times that of women. The rate of primary and secondary syphilis among MSM more than 46 times that of other men and more than 71 times that of women.10
A 1988 CDC survey identified 21 percent of all Hepatitis B cases as being homosexually transmitted while 18 percent were heterosexually
transmitted.11 Since homosexuals comprise such a small percent of the population (only 1-3 percent),12 they have a significantly higher rate
of infection than heterosexuals.13
Anal intercourse also puts men at significant risk for anal cancer. Anal cancer is the result of infection with some subtypes of human
papilloma virus (HPV), which are known viral carcinogens. Data as of 1989 showed the rates of anal cancer in male homosexual practitioners be 10 times that of heterosexual males, and growing.13 Thus, the prevalence of anal cancer among gay men is of great concern. For those with
AIDS, the rates are doubled.14
Other physical problems associated with anal intercourse are:
hemorrhoids
anal fissures
anorectal trauma
retained foreign bodies.15
b. Oral-anal
There is an extremely high rate of parasitic and other intestinal infections documented among male homosexual practitioners because of oralanal
contact. In fact, there are so many infections that a syndrome called “the Gay Bowel” is described in the medical literature.16 “Gay
bowel syndrome constitutes a group of conditions that occur among persons who practice unprotected anal intercourse, anilingus, or fellatio
following anal intercourse.”17 Although some women have been diagnosed with some of the gastrointestinal infections associated with “gay
bowel,” the vast preponderance of patients with these conditions are men who have sex with men.18
“Rimming” is the street name given to oralanal contact. It is because of this practice that intestinal parasites ordinarily found in the
tropics are encountered in the bodies of American gay men. Combined with anal intercourse and other homosexual practices, “rimming” provides
a rich opportunity for a variety of infections.
Men who have sex with men account for the lion’s share of the increasing number of cases in America of sexually transmitted infections that
are not generally spread through sexual contact. These diseases, with consequences that range from severe and even life-threatening to mere
annoyances, include Hepatitis A,19 Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica,20 Epstein-Barr virus,21 Neisseria meningitides,22 Shigellosis,
Salmonellosis, Pediculosis, scabies and Campylobacter.23
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) identified a 1991 outbreak of Hepatitis A in New York City, in which 78 percent of male
respondents identified themselves as homosexual or bisexual.24While Hepatitis A can be transmitted by routes other than sexual, a
preponderance of Hepatitis A is found in gay men in multiple states.25 Salmonella is rarely associated with sexual activity except among men who have oral-anal and oral-genital contact following anal intercourse.26 The most unsettling new discovery is the reported sexual
transmission of typhoid. This water-borne disease, well known in the tropics, only infects 400 people each year in the United States, usually
as a result of ingestion of contaminated food or water while abroad. But sexual transmission was diagnosed in Ohio in a series of male sex
partners of one male who had traveled to Puerto Rico.27
In America, Human Herpes Virus 8 (called Herpes Type 8 or HHV-8) is a disease found exclusively among male homosexual practitioners.
Researchers have long noted that men who contracted AIDS through homosexual behavior frequently developed a previously rare form of cancer
called Kaposi’s sarcoma. Men who contract HIV/AIDS through heterosexual sex or intravenous drug use rarely display this cancer. Recent
314.
none of the exclusively heterosexual men tested positive. The study predicted that half of the men with both HIV and HHV-8 would develop cancer within 10 years.28 The medical literature is currently unclear as to the precise types of sexual behavior that transmit HHV-8, but
there is a suspicion that it may be transmitted via saliva.29
c. Human Waste
Some gay men sexualize human waste, including the medically dangerous practice of coprophilia, which means sexual contact with highly
infectious fecal wastes.30 This practice exposes the participants to all of the risks of anal-oral contact and many of the risks of
analgenital contact.
d. Fisting
“Fisting” refers to the insertion of a hand or forearm into the rectum, and is far more damaging than anal intercourse. Tears can occur,
along with incompetence of the anal sphincter. The result can include infections, inflammation and, consequently, enhanced susceptibility future STDs. Twenty-two percent of homosexuals in one survey admitted to having participated in this practice.31
e. Sadism
The sexualization of pain and cruelty is described as sadism, named for the 18th Century novelist, the Marquis de Sade. His novel Justine
describes repeated rapes and non-consensual whippings.32 Not all persons who practice sadism engage in the same activities. But a recent
advertisement for a sadistic “conference” included a warning that participants might see “intentional infliction of pain [and] cutting of skin with bleeding . . . .” Scheduled workshops included “Vaginal Fisting” (with a demonstration), “Sacred Sexuality and Cutting” with “a
demonstration of a cutting with a live subject,” “Rough Rope,” and a “Body Harness” workshop that was to involve “demonstrating and coaching
the tying of erotic body harnesses that involve the genitals, male and female.”33 A similar event entitled the “Vicious Valentine” occurred
near Chicago on Feb. 15-17, 2002.34 The medical consequences of such activities range from mild to fatal, depending upon the nature of the
injuries inflicted.35 As many as 37 percent of homosexuals have practiced some form of sadism.36
f. Conclusion
The consequences of homosexual activity have significantly altered the delivery of medical care to the population at-large. With the
increased incidence of STD organisms in unexpected places, simple sore throat is no longer so simple. Doctors must now ask probing questions
of their patients or risk making a misdiagnosis. The evaluation of a sore throat must now include questions about oral and anal sex. A case
of hemorrhoids is no longer just a surgical problem. We must now inquire as to sexual practice and consider that anal cancer, rectal
gonorrhea, or rectal chlamydia may be secreted in what deceptively appears to be “just hemorrhoids.”37 Moreover, data shows that rectal and
throat gonorrhea, for example, are without symptoms in 75 percent of cases.38
The impact of the health consequences of gay sex is not confined to homosexual practitioners. Even though nearly 11 million people in America
are directly affected by cancer, compared to slightly more than three-quarters of a million with AIDS,39 AIDS spending per patient is more
than seven times that for cancer.40 The inequity for diabetes and heart disease is even more striking.41 Consequently, the disproportionate
amount of money spent on AIDS detracts from research into cures for diseases that affect more people.
