There have been studies done that show male homosexuality is linked to more mood and anxiety disorders. Why do you think this is?

-_-

Did you read what you linked at all?

Quote:Psychological research in this area includes examining mental health issues (including stress, depression, or addictive behavior) faced by gay and lesbian people as a result of the difficulties they experience because of their sexual orientation, physical appearance issues, eating disorders, or gender atypical behavior.

Stigma. Go figure

Stigma
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Do other minorities suffer from these same mental disorders? I'd be more worried being black than gay.

That's from the Wikipedia article and there is no source. I just use Wikipedia for their sources, not their opinions.

I'd be more worried if I was ignorant enough to believe being gay was a mental disorder.
