Royal College of Psychiatrists:

"Despite almost a century of psychoanalytic and psychological speculation, there is no substantive evidence to support the suggestion that the nature of parenting or early childhood experiences play any role in the formation of a person’s fundamental heterosexual or homosexual orientation. It would appear that sexual orientation is biological in nature, determined by a complex interplay of genetic factors and the early uterine environment."

"A growing body of empirical literature suggests that the brains of gay males are less masculinized than those of heterosexual males, reflected in visual-spatial task performance -- a measure of cerebral masculinazation and one in which heterosexual males usually surpass females.

Several studies report that the cognitive performance of gay males is more typical of heterosexual females than heterosexual males.

Furthermore, the brain waves of gay males while performing verbal and spatial tasks are more similar to heterosexual females than males or significantly different from both."

Relationships among childhood sex-atypical behavior, spatial ability, handedness, and sexual orientation in men. Cohen KM. Arch Sex Behav. (2002)

Fat Men Are Better in Bed

After a year-long study of male sexual performance, researchers have found that men with higher body mass indices last seven minutes longer than their slender counterparts. The decidedly unsexy reason: Fat men have more female hormones.

Statistically, (according to the US CDC) homosexual practices present risks... since homosexuals switch partners often, they are more likely to get STDs & AIDS (which 2 friends of mine died from).
STD Increase among Gay and Bisexual Men
http://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/newsroom/...nal508comp.pdf (http://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/newsroom/docs/fastfacts-msm-final508comp.pdf - broken link)
We also know that anal sex is risky (for anal fissures, colon rupture & anal cancer), even in 2 healthy males.

What is the motive of someone who encourages such behavior that has proven to be so often harmful?

In case you'd like the cartoon version...

Once again....The CDC articles you linked to do NOT SAY ANYTHING AT ALL about what you claimed in red. Those claims are from people like Paul Cameron or your other anti-gay websites.

You have misrepresented the CDC articles again. Have you actually read them?

Only a small percentage of gay men have HIV in the US. The CDC is talking about the percentages of new diagnoses amongst men who have unprotected risky sex with men, NOT gay men in general.

According to the World Health Organization, the majority of people worldwide with HIV are heterosexual.

PS. I don;t expect you to respond to this, as you haven't the last few times I have called you out on your misrepresentations of these articles.

Jaymax,
The United States Center for Disease Control (US CDC) gathers information based on medical reports from doctors & health clinics throughout the nation. They are not part of census gathering information, & census gathering information does not ask if someone is gay or not.
The fact that I have to explain this to you is surprising, Jaymax.

"MSM (Men who have sex with other men) account for nearly half of the approximately 1.2 million people living with HIV in the United States.
MSM account for more than half of all new HIV infections in the United States each year (61%, or an estimated 29,300 infections). While CDC estimates that only 4 percent of men in the United States are MSM, the rate of new HIV diagnoses among MSM in the United States is more than 44 times that of other men (range: 522 – 989 per 100,000 MSM vs. 12 per 100,000 other men)."
http://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/newsroom/docs/fastfacts-msm-final508comp.pdf (broken link)

Jaymax, it's right there... read it, & acknowledge that you lied.

Jaymax,
There is plenty of information online... You name, it you can find it... whatever suits your preference. Some information is just oppinion, others is based on studies. Some of those studies are credible, some are not.

How can you tell who's right & who's wrong?
Consider the basics.
How were you created? (from a sperm from a man & an egg from a woman)
What anatomically fits & what doesn't?
What are the consequences of homosexual behavior (as shown by the US CDC)?

Jaymax, Did you realize your link is for "Sex pheromone preference in moths"? MOTHS?

Jaymax,
The brain study is not conclusive... "chose to measure brain parameters likely to have been fixed at birth"
Likely: indefinite, unsure, put possibly (not something to be scientifically conclusive about).
Also stated, "But as Savic herself acknowledges, the study can't say whether the brain differences are inherited, or result from abnormally high or low exposure in the womb to sex hormones such as testosterone."

The brain study you mentioned, although is clearly supporting the gay agenda... We know that our brains continue to adapt to environmental influences. In fact, it's know that having a baby doesn't only change the mother, but also father's brain chemistry etc...
Benefits of the Daddy Brain - Miller-McCune

So... brain chemistry can be affected in utero, after birth (esp. the first extremely influential year of life)... & throughout life.
Still, it is immoral to encourage behavior that has statisitcally shown to be harmful.
