Prohomosexual researchers have trotted out their latest self-serving “study” to bolster claims that homosexuality is akin to eating an apple a day. To sum, sexual activity with someone of the same gender keeps you out of doctor’s office and improves your overall medical condition. It even saves you money! At some point they may even suggest that everyone take the red homosexual pill for a 30 day trial period to improve health. The BBC story even included a gay man-butt grabbing photo to show just how effective the new treatment is.

The number of visits by gay men to health clinics dropped significantly after same-sex unions were allowed in the state Massachusetts. This was regardless of whether the men were in a stable relationship, reported the American Journal of Public Health. A UK HIV charity said there was a clear link between happiness and health.
Research has already suggested that gay men are more likely to suffer from depression and suicidal thoughts than heterosexual men, and that social exclusion may be partly responsible.

Humorous? Not really, because these intellectual cavemen are dead serious about remodeling homosexuality into the latest fitness craze. The study released is predictably flawed.

Researchers from Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health surveyed the demand for medical and mental health care from 1,211 gay men registered with a particular health clinic in the 12 months prior to the change, and the 12 months afterwards.

They found a 13% drop in healthcare visits after the law was enacted.

There was a reduction in blood pressure problems, depression and “adjustment disorders”, which the authors claimed could be the result of reduced stress.

The school’s Queer Health Task Force identifies one of its goals as “activism”. That’s the type of activism that produces “research” which benefits no one except those who are attempting to revision their public image. Its like all the other inconclusive progay studies that are quickly fed to a gay news obsessed media. The media in turn repeats as is with no critical analysis of its claims.

The reason this study is flawed is because:
1. It does not identify all the men with health issues prior to the study as “unmarried” homosexuals
2. It does not identify all the men with health issues after the study as “married” homosexual men.

If all the men in the study are only identified as gay men, there is no way it can determine whether homosexual marriage improves their health because it doesn’t identify the same men as married.

3. Thus, it makes a quantum leap of assumption as to the impact of gay marriage on a homosexual man’s health.
4. Considering that MA was one of the most prohomosexual states in the union prior to passing gay marriage, its difficult to believe that homosexuals there were suffering because of “inequality”

5. Even the language is inconclusive:
“Our results suggest that removing these barriers improves the health of gay and bisexual men”
“Marriage equality may produce broad public health benefits”
“…social exclusion may be partly responsible”
“authors claimed could be the result of reduced stress.”
