Social stigma is real; of that I have no doubt. But I suspect it’s being overused as a convenient explanation for the gaps—the differences—between the experiences of heterosexual Americans and those of sexual minorities.

I agree completely with you. It will be something else, mostly our “hateful” attitude toward them by not groveling over their perverted sex acts.

No. But telling a confused kid that there’s no way out of being boned up the butt repeatedly by thousands of different men for the rest of his life (whether he’s “married” to one of them or not) probably leads to a lot of suicides. Providing a way out of that lifestyle through Jesus Christ is what he really needs.
