LGBT youth attempting suicides still high after legalize homosexual marriage
Recent research concludes that suicide rates are down among non-straight teens and LGBTQ youth overall, but they are still far and apart occurring at a higher rate than straight or cisgender teens. Homosexuals campaigned saying - Gay marriage would reduce teen suicide and they would be accepted and everything would be better.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for young people ages 10-24, and these studies can help address what is causing so many to take their own lives and how our society is failing them.
One study published its data in the medical Pediatrics journal, analyzing information from the Youth Risk Behavioral Surveillance Survey collected in six states from 2009 to 2017. Lead study author, assistant professor Julia Raifman from Boston University, wrote that “large disparities in suicide attempts persisted[…]even as the percent of students identifying as LGBQ increased.”
The survey combs its data from Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, North Dakota, and Rhode Island – the only six states that continuously collects information on the sexual orientation of teens.
The research found that the number of out teens has doubled in these states – from 7.3 percent in 2009 to 14.3 percent in 2017. Yet, suicide rates among teens during that same period found that those who didn’t identify as heterosexual were more than three times as likely to attempt suicide than straight teens.
Why? Because they have bought the lie that gay is good, that love is love. They have chosen a lifestyle prohibited by God based on anti-biological sex ideology that will only bring distress as they have now discovered.
The study also found girls were out as non-heterosexual at more than twice the rate as boys, and the number of teens that “experimented” with non-straight sexual activity grew from 7.7 to 13 percent over that same time.
This is a dangerous experiment going down the LGBT ideology.
A second study, conducted at Brown University over two decades, “found that suicidal plans and attempts were declining across the board,” but non-heterosexual youth were still found to have “suicidal thoughts, plans, and attempts” more often. This study used data from schools and hospitals in Massachusetts from 1995 to 2017.
What can be done to lower these numbers? The researchers say both studies conclude that supporting youth and respecting their sexuality will contribute to lower suicide rates.
But the gay marriage campaigners said it would be solved with the legalization of homosexuality. Yet they ignore the core fact - homosexuality is a sin, it is an unhealthy lifestyle choice, the sexual function is against the biological design of the body, and subject to ill health.
