HOW TO MAKE GAY FRIENDS: AN LBGT FRIENDSHIP GUI
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.
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.
CAN GAY AND STRAIGHT MEN REALLY BE FRIENDS?
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.
