I’m probably going to get hate for this but please watch the video till the end and make your judgement accordingly before making any reactionary comments.

    I’m not sure what your point is here but here you go: Illinois child services reported sexual abuse for 1997 through 2002. 270 parents committed “substantiated” sexual offenses against foster or subsidized adoptive children: 67 (69%) of 97 of these mother and 148 (86%) of 173 of these father perpetrators sexually abused girls; 30 (31%) of the mothers and 25 (14%) of the father perpetrators sexually abused boys, i.e., 92 (34%) of the perpetrators homosexually abused their charges. Of these parents 15 both physically and sexually abused charges: daughters by 8 of the mothers and 4 of the fathers, sons by 3 of the mothers, i.e., same-sex perpetrators were involved in 53%. Thus, homosexual practitioners were proportionately more apt to abuse foster or adoptive children sexually.

      That is not at all saying homosexual practitioners were more apt to abuse foster kids. It wasn’t saying that at all.

      Which part do you believe says that? Don’t give me a wall of text, give me the individual lines that you think supports your point.

      And again, it’s a 20 year old article from before Gay marriage was even legal. Pretty sure a country that doesn’t accept gay people will be more likely to paint them unfairly as pedophiles.

          Right, what is the supporting data that that article provides.

          I have a feeling you might not be prepared to actually discuss this type of thing, considering you can’t even answer the most basic question about the article you provided. Copy and pasting things without explaining why it supports your point is useless.

          You don’t actually have any support, you don’t know how to support it, so instead your just acting high and mighty.

          If you could support your point, if you could explain it, you would. But you’re not. You’re hiding behind quotes you don’t even understand.

            My friend, you literally asked me to provide quotes from the article. I’m not the one acting high and mighty when you’re the one that isn’t even making any points here. The numbers in the quote I provided are directly from the Illinois child services and the conclusion that they made is the last sentence in that abstract. Very simple if you claim you already read that.

              I’m asking you to show me the supporting data and explain it.

              Why won’t you do that? Because you can’t, because you didn’t read the article, because you don’t know what you’re talking about. You copy and pasted the abstract, the bare minimum - something that anyone who just pulled it up could do. You don’t know what it even says.

              And again, it’s a 20 year old article from before Gay marriage was legal. So the data it DOES have isn’t even going to be accurate.

                It seems to me like you aren’t reading any of my replies so I’m just going to stop here. Like I said same-sex activity was legal since 1962 in Illinois. The data DOES provide an accurate representation.

                  Is this a joke? I’ve had to askt he same exact thing 4 times now. I’m just asking you to explain the data supporting your point. Why aren’t you doing that?

                  You say the data does support it, I’m asking which data are you talking about. There’s a dozen numbers up there. Which one do you think supports your point. You’re just saying “This stuff supports me” I’m asking “how does that support you.”

                  How many different ways do I have to ask?
