” Asked if they had ever been raped, 31 percent of those raised by lesbian mothers and 25 percent of children raised by gay fathers answered yes, compared to eight percent of those from intact biological homes.”

Those numbers all seem high by a factor of 10 or more. Maybe I have just lived a sheltered life, or maybe the results are skewed by “womyn” who say all sex is rape.


Yea, first thing I thought while reading this article is all those numbers sound VERY high, maybe a factor of 4. I'll admit I don't know everything about everyone I know, but through my life I've only met 3 people who I know were actually raped. (Only one of them forceful, others were boyfriends going too far for comfort.) Then a couple others I heard about at college, stupid frat boys and drunk chicks.

Well a quick Google search shows several studies thinking 18-20% of the populace has been raped.. HOLY CRAP that is ridiculous.. I don't know how they get that number, ever from their other numbers. (~90k reported per year, 1 in 4 rapes is reported.) So if we assume an average age of 40, 40*90k = 3.6M. divided by 300M, we have 1.2%. Even with the 1in4 reports, that still only gets to 5%. So that's pretty rough, but still not close, especially since all my numbers are rounded in favor of more rapes (FBI estimates 1in3 reported, Wikipedia median age is 37).

The 8% raped number put out there for the intact biological family seems high too. But the likelihood 3 to 4 times greater of being a rape victim because your guardians are homosexual - that is quite alarming.

Our society needs some objective eyes on this. If these numbers are true, and can be otherways substantiated, the practice of allowing homosexuals to raise children needs to end.
