YET ANOTHER STUDY CONFIRMS GAY LIFE EXPECTANCY 20 YEARS SHORTER
Over the past few months we have learnt of a number of reports regardg a paper we published the Internatnal Journal of Epimlogy on the gay and bisexu * gay men life expectancy *
"All homosexuals are aware that their lifpan is about 20 years ls than for normal people so voters should know that a homosexual print may not live to fish his term. Among men wh AIDS their lifpan was 39 years, however even whout AIDS a male homosexuals lifpan is jt a short 42 years. [3] The liberal Southern Poverty Law Centre dubbed Cameron an "anti-gay extremist", and the Amerin Psychologil Associatn expelled him for exposg the tth about the homosexual liftyle and acced him of scientific data "d".
Another 1997 study om pro-homosexual rearchers who were tryg fend homosexuals, examed data of AIDS aths between 1987 to 1992 Toronto, and found that the life expectancy for the homosexual men was 8 to 20 years lower than heterosexuals.
Hard evince is difficult to e by, but the data we do have suggts that homosexualy tends to shorten life by many years. Over the past few months we have learnt of a number of reports regardg a paper we published the Internatnal Journal of Epimlogy on the gay and bisexual life expectancy Vanuver the late 1980s and early 1990s.

1 From the reports appears that our rearch is beg ed by select groups US2 and Fland3 to suggt that gay and bisexual men live an unhealthy liftyle that is stctive to themselv and to others.
GAY AND BISEXUAL MEN'S HEALTH
Unrstand health ncerns for gay men and other men who have sex wh men, and learn how to promote good health. * gay men life expectancy *
The homophobic groups appear more terted rtrictg the human rights of gay and bisexuals rather than promotg their health and well aim of our rearch was never to spread more homophobia, but to monstrate to an ternatnal dience how the life expectancy of gay and bisexual men n be timated om limed val statistics data. In our paper, we monstrated that a major Canadian centre, life expectancy at age 20 years for gay and bisexual men is 8 to 21 years ls than for all men. If the same pattern of mortaly ntued, we timated that nearly half of gay and bisexual men currently aged 20 years would not reach their 65th birthday.
LBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENR HEALTH
A study by The Fay Rearch Instute says that marriage for gay men and lbians is more dangero than smokg. * gay men life expectancy *
Unr even the most liberal assumptns, gay and bisexual men this urban centre were experiencg a life expectancy siar to that experienced by men Canada the year 1871. In ntrast, if we were to repeat this analysis today the life expectancy of gay and bisexual men would be greatly improved.
If timat of an dividual gay and bisexual man's risk of ath is tly need for legal or other purpos, then people makg the timat should e the same actuarial tabl that are ed for all other mal that populatn. Gay and bisexual men are clud the nstctn of official populatn-based tabl and therefore the tabl for all mal are the appropriate on to be summary, the aim of our work was to assist health planners wh the means of timatg the impact of HIV fectn on groups, like gay and bisexual men, not necsarily ptured by val statistics data and not to hr the rights of the groups worldwi.
Overall, we do not ndone the e of our rearch a manner that rtricts the polil or human rights of gay and bisexual men or any other group. 11 In addn, populatn-based surveys over the last have nsistently documented elevated risk for suici attempts among gay and bisexual men pared wh heterosexual men. Further, as relied on registered same-genr domtic partnership stat to intify gay and bisexual men, the earlier study did not acunt for the possible health benefs of livg wh a partner27 and th may have unrtimated mortaly risk for MSM general.
Sce the legalizatn of same-sex marriage Denmark, gays and lbians have seen mortaly rat cle. * gay men life expectancy *
Th, timat om men livg admistratively documented partnerships likely reprent only a small segment of the gay and bisexual male one of the first natnal health data sets the Uned Stat to measure markers of sexual orientatn routely, the Natnal Health and Nutrn Examatn Survey s third eratn (NHANES III; 1988–1994) ially began s asssment of sexual orientatn wh a rtricted set of qutns pertag to lifetime histori of the genrs of rponnts’ sexual partners. Although suici-related aths were relatively rare the NHANES III sample (n =18), if they occurred among homosexually experienced men at the same rate reported the recent study of Danish men registered domtic partnerships, 24 would have been tectable the current study. Although most gay-intified men report lifetime same-genr sexual experienc, this is not te of men who intify as bisexual.
25 This discrepancy impli that generalizg fdgs om the current study to gay and bisexual-intified men, general, should be done wh some utn. For example, several recent studi have reported higher rat of tobac e among gay and bisexual men than among heterosexual men.
Routely llectg rmatn on markers of sexual orientatn health surveys likewise will facilate trackg the health of people wh mory sexual orientatn and will rce the impact of modifiable health threats that may be elevated among gay and bisexual men.
