    How can this be?

    Governments are flying their flag.

    TV shows and movies are having more and more gay characters.

    Courts are granting them rights out of thin air.

    Yet, with all that coddling and "in your face attitude," they are some of the most unhealthy and unhappy people.

    Why?

    Study finds homosexuals less healthy, happy than heterosexuals

    It will be years and years before homosexuality becomes mainstream. They try to cram it down our throats, but it's still considered freakish. Until it's totally accepted, those afflicted will be confused and unsure of themselves. The only place they're completely at ease with themselves and their surroundings is amongst each other, and even then, they try abnormally hard to be normal.

    What's this? A group that faces massive hatred and violence is less happy than the majority?

    I WONDER WHY

    That was sarcasm, by the way. I'm mocking how ridiculous it is that you failed to get it to the extent that you actually made this post.

    Why?

    Well according to the article YOU posted ...

    "Professor Wilkins, who supports homosexual "marriage," does not see the data as showing an intrinsic problem with homosexuality. Instead, he attributed the clear difference to societal discrimination toward gays. "I personally see this as an indictment on our society," he said. He also speculated that lower relationship satisfaction levels may be influenced by gay people's inability to access marriage in Australia."

    Not rocket science, is it?

    By the way, there are numerous studies that show Americans are less happy and healthy than the people of Sweden. What does that indicate?

    Less than 1% of gays and lesbians even want to get married. It was a ruse to normalize their behavior. Many nations are pushing back, Russia for example is clamping down on the run away amorality train that is the homosexual agenda. You will more than likely be beaten up if you decide to walk down the street holding hands with your "husband."

    While I don't condone violence and stress tolerance...the fact there is push-back exemplifies the reality that Newton's 3rd law of motion applies in social dynamics as well. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    If you push...expect to be pushed back.

    The push is the agendafication of normalizing homosexual behavior..the push-back will happen. Society should and must tolerate it, but it has no obligation to celebrate it.

    A study from a country where gays have fewer rights and privileges than straight people says that gays are also less happy?

    OMG do tell.

    Sweden has a high rate of suicide, I'm not sure they are a prime example of what constitutes a "happy" people."

    Heh, now you are lionizing Russia.

    Hey...Nazi Germany hated homos too. Maybe they weren't so bad either eh? Better look into that.

    Yes...that is why gay marriage gained popularity in the first place. It works both ways.

    That is why gay rights should not be a surprise to you.

    Just like interracial marriage.

    ORLY? Lets see how happy gay-hating Russia is shall we?

    Oh well...maybe oppressing homos will make them happier. Worth a try.

    Live? No

    Visited? Yes

    What does "living" in Russia have to do with my comment anyway. The logic of your question escapes me.

    A simple google search will support my argument that indeed Russian culture is pushing back against the celebration of homosexuality. There are numerous, Youtube videos of two men holding hands walking down a street in Moscow...insults are thrown their way and in one example a man physically accosts one of the men holding hands. He shoves them as he is walking by.

    or how about this...

    A simple google search will also reveal that Russians are not happy. I expect most nations where homos are oppressed will be shown as equally unhappy.

    You said Russia is one of the nations cracking down on homosexuality. That's not something I doubt would happen, but we don't live in Russia. Also, Russia really isn't one of the kindest places in the world at all, compared to other nations where homosexuality and gay marriage has been accepted for years.

    What part of my comment did I say I supported what is going on in Russia? It's a very machismo culture. Effeminate males are going to have a tough go of it. I clearly stated, I don't condone violence of any sort..I merely stated there is push back.

    After Gorbachev initiated, perestroika, Russia became more Westernized...including among these was the increased visibility of the homosexual community. Well, Putin was former KGB, they don't trust Western values and look upon it as a corruptive influence. There are now laws on the books in Russia preventing any positive association and promotion of homosexuality. You will not see gay pride parades as an example. Odds are two males holding hands will be minimally verbally assaulted by doing so, in some extreme cases the reaction will be violent. Nothing I've stated is fabricated. Certain cultures are pushing back against the normalization of homosexuality. Gays should be fortunate they live here...like I've said, I have visited Russia... it's not a happy place, it's corrupt as heck...and if you're gay, I'd advise not advertising that fact.

    So some knuckle-dragging bigots are going to get violent. Okay. How is "some people aren't going to like this and violent bigots will be violent bigots" a remarkable observation?

    Who said we're not glad to live here? What you really mean is that we should feel lucky that people here are not able to do the same things to us, and therefore we should put up with less than equal treatment in the US- just because it's better here.

    Sorry, we insist on being treated equally, just like everyone else. This is the USA after all, not Russia.

    I'm waiting for them to start killing over it. They will. They always do.

    ahh, so the reason is "homophobia" and not due to a mental condition

    "homophobia" forces homosexuals to engage in unprotected sex and contract HIV at a higher rate than heterosexuals
    "homophobia" forces homosexual males to have a higher strike rate of pedophilia than their heterosexual counterparts
    "homophobia" forces homosexuals to have a higher rate of suicide/attempted suicide than heterosexuals

    Newton's 3rd law of motion.

    A very unremarkable law of physics...the same applies to social dynamics.

    Those who push should expect a degree of push back.

    Not all parts of our society accept homosexuality as normative behavior, regardless of the Supreme Court decision. Perhaps there are even homosexuals who don't fully embrace their lifestyle and promote it as normative.

    I believe it should be regarded as an anomaly, diagnosed as a disease. Do we beat up and make fun of someone with cancer? Of course not. We should have sympathy for the truly gay and lesbian,...not just "experimenters" as people with an illness. The disabled deserve protection. I don't believe they choose this affliction, it is a form of brain disease, probably from exposure to hormones while in the fetal stage of development. Certain areas of brain development were stunted.

    It's a disease. Should we celebrate cancer? of course not, nor should we condemn those that have it. Same applies for the homosexual/lesbian. They deserve our empathy as disabled people.

    The Nazi party was started in a gay bar.The perpetrators of the Night of the long knives were almost exclusively homosexual.http://www.thepinkswastika.com/


    Except a person has no choice as of the race they are born into.
    People absolutely have a choice as to what they do sexually.

    You seemed to be defending or applauding their efforts to "push back" against homos.

    Effemininity &#8800; Homosexuality. Lots of homos are masculine, and lots of straight guys are feminine.

    Mexico is also a very machismo culture. Gay marriage is legal there.

    I already live in the best country in the world. I have no desire to visit Russia.

    Many of the lower cultures have weird and oppressive laws. It is not evidence of anything except how backwards they are relative to us.
