This is from the blog of the National Organization for Marriage.
Excerpt:
A new study in the Journal of Epidemiology followed 6.5 million Danish persons for nearly 30 years (for a total of 112.5 million person-years) looking at how living arrangements (being single, cohabiting, married, widowed or in a same-sex union) affected their health outcomes.
From the official abstract:
“[Hazard Ratios] for overall mortality changed markedly over time, most notably for persons in same-sex marriage. In 2000–2011, opposite-sex married persons (reference, HR = 1) had consistently lower mortality than persons in other marital status categories in women (HRs 1.37–1.89) and men (HRs 1.37–1.66). Mortality was particularly high for same-sex married women (HR = 1.89), notably from suicide (HR = 6.40) and cancer (HR = 1.62), whereas rates for same-sex married men (HR = 1.38) were equal to or lower than those for unmarried, divorced and widowed men. Prior marriages (whether opposite-sex or same-sex) were associated with increased mortality in both women and men (HR = 1.16–1.45 per additional prior marriage).”
So, what do we learn? We learn that just slapping the label “marriage” onto gay couples doesn’t give them the same health benefits as natural marriage.

Wow a thirty year study? That’s intense!

“This blogger believes that gender is a real and beautiful phenomenon. It is not a fluid aspect of our person that we “perform” (as some avant-garde activists suggest) or a social characteristic “no more important than the length of one’s neck,” as my queer friend puts it. Gender has a real and beneficial impact in all areas of our life- work, government, marriage, parenting, etc.” http://askthebigot.com/2013/06/14/marriage-is-good-for-you-and-its-not-just-the-commitment/
