HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE: UNHEALTHY, SAD AND
LONELY
Whoever named homosexuals, "gays,"
must have had a peculiar and very jaded sense of humour. The
word "gay" is a pathetic misnomer since the homosexual
lifestyle, according to the homosexuals themselves, is anything
but happy, and leads to serious medical problems and a lonely
life.
In an article for the homosexual newspaper,
Capital Xtra (September 27, 2002) Brian Gallant, Capital
Xtra's publisher and editor in chief states:
It shouldn't be too difficult to convince
you that gay men face greater health risks than our heterosexual
counterparts. And if you're a sexually active gay man, there
are health risks in our culture or subculture that healthcare
providers simply don't understand, unless you're one of
the more fortunate.
Mr. Gallant then proceeds to list the health
problems resulting from the homosexual lifestyle. These problems
include:
- Eating disorders, such as bulimia or anorexia, resulting
from body image problems which are more common among gay
men than among their straight peers.
- Alcohol abuse and dependency, which is higher than among
straight men.
- Gay men use tobacco at much higher rates than straight
men, reaching 50% in some studies.
- Depression and anxiety appear to affect gay men at a higher
rate than people in the general population.
- Gay men use chemical substances at a higher rate than
the general population. These range from amyl nitrate (poppers),
to marijuana, ecstasy and amphetamines.
- There is an increased risk of HIV infection.
An article included in the March 2003 issue
of the homosexual magazine, TO BE, by Ouri M. refers to a
2001 survey called "The Wellness Project," initiated
by Pink Triangle Services in Ottawa, which found that the
number one health concern for homosexuals is depression. The
author blames this health problem on the loneliness caused
by the gay culture. He states:
It is my opinion that many gay men are
extremely lonely, and feel very isolated. Our gay culture
has not celebrated the virtues of long-term relationships,
love, faithfulness, and monogamy. The gay culture celebrates
and worships youth, physical beauty, and sex. Being young
and gay is fun, going out to clubs and cruising is adventurous
and exciting. However as the years pass us by, and we do
not settle down that adventure becomes less and less fun
in my opinion. One begins to feel lonely, and frustrated,
and in many cases seeks out many sexual partners to fill
the void inside. Drugs are also often used to cover up the
pain of ones [sic] loneliness, or reality.
… I believe we must change our focus
and shift our culture from the sex, drugs, and physical
we so dearly cherish. …
… We must help eradicate the loneliness
and sadness many older gay men feel. There is a trap that
may gay men fall into as they age, realising they are longer
young and attractive and can't attract that hot guy anymore,
they no longer want to go out to bars, then what?
Poor health, depression and loneliness are
the end result of the homosexual lifestyle and culture. Yet,
not only tolerance, but the acceptance of this lifestyle are
being imposed on young people in our schools, backed by the
Supreme Court of Canada in the Surrey School Board decision.
(See Reality, Jan./Feb., 2003, p.1.)
As responsible adults, we need to protect
our young people from the homosexual lifestyle, not encourage
participation in it.
