A study published in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior asked same-sex couples who were living together about their health status, and compared their responses to those of heterosexual couples who were married or living together, as well as to people who were divorced, widowed or had never married. The study pooled data from 1,634 women living with same-sex partners and 1,659 men living with their male partners who were part of the National Health Interview Surveys from 1997 to 2009.
Previous research showed that married couples are usually healthier than their non-married counterparts, and the current study confirmed that trend; people in same-sex relationships reported better health than those who were single, but the same-sex partners reported poorer health than heterosexual married couples.
“These same-sex marriage-like relationships represent a very interesting population, not only for politics, but in terms of the health disparities,” says lead study author Hui Liu, an assistant professor of sociology at Michigan State University.

Maybe deep down inside their conscience their body is telling them it is WRONG. You can fool the people, yourselves, and any others dumb enough to buy the garbage about rights and genetics & such but you can't fool God.
Deep down homosexuality is wrong, always has been wrong and always will be wrong. It is a moral crime against natural law.
Duh, aids,anyone? Look it up?
