Not only do gays die much earlier than heterosexuals, they live a largely much unhealthier life than heterosexuals.

One does not abuse the body God designed for us without having consequences.

Survey finds excess health problems in lesbians, gays, bisexuals
Overall, 67,150 survey respondents were heterosexual, 525 lesbian, 624 gay and 515 bisexual. The average age was about 47.

Gilbert Gonzales of the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville and colleagues found that compared to heterosexual women, lesbians were 91 percent more likely to report poor or fair health. Lesbians were 51 percent more likely, and bisexual women were more than twice as likely, to report multiple chronic conditions, compared to straight women.

Gay, lesbian and bisexual people were also more likely than heterosexuals to report heavy drinking and smoking.

While gays and lesbians reported worse psychological distress than heterosexuals, bisexual people suffered the most, the survey showed.

For example, about 17 percent of heterosexual men had at least moderate psychological distress, compared to about 26 percent of gay men and about 40 percent of bisexual men.

Similarly, about 22 percent of heterosexual women had at least moderate psychological distress, compared to about 28 percent of lesbian women and about 46 percent of bisexual women.
 
Gay life expectancy revisited
In our paper, we demonstrated that in a major Canadian centre, life expectancy at age 20 years for gay and bisexual men is 8 to 21 years less than for all men. If the same pattern of mortality continued, we estimated that nearly half of gay and bisexual men currently aged 20 years would not reach their 65th birthday.

Well all of that is a great reason for heterosexuals not to 'choose' to become gay.

Just don't make that choice! No matter how much you are attracted to that life style- just don't do it!
 
How much does the AIDS pandemic affect the data? What about marriage? Monogamy must play a big part in longevity.
 
We better ban fat people while we're at it, too! They are dropping like flies.

Really big flies that can hardly get off the ground.

Report: Gay Characters Hit Record High on Network TV
November 3, 2016 — A record number of gay characters are featured on broadcast series, but small-screen shows overall can be deadly for the female ones, according to a study released Thursday.
More than 25 lesbian and bisexual female characters died on scripted broadcast, cable and streaming series this year, the media advocacy group GLAAD found in its report on small-screen diversity. While TV remains far ahead of film in gay representations, the medium "failed queer women this year" by continuing the "harmful 'bury your gays' trope," the report said.

The violent deaths included characters Poussey Washington (played by Samira Wiley on "Orange is the New Black") and Bea Smith (Danielle Cormack on "Wentworth"). It's part of a decade-long pattern in which gay or transgender characters are killed to further a straight character's story line, GLAAD said, sending what it called the "dangerous" message that gay people are disposable.

For its annual report titled "Where We Are on TV," researchers tallied the LGBTQ characters seen or set to be portrayed in the period from June 2016 to May 2017. Counts were based on series airing or announced and for which casting has been confirmed. The study, which in 2005 began examining other aspects of diversity on TV, found record percentages of people of color and people with disabilities depicted on broadcast shows.
