All the efforts of qualified social workers, mental-health workers and gay advocates aside, it doesn't take any one of them to prove that there is great homophobia in this society, and that those who will suffer the most from that ignorance, fear and anger are young homosexuals.
Young people are always the most sensitive to the inhumane expectations of society.
All that matters is that there are gay suicides, no matter what age. All that matters is some gay people end up with emotional or mental problems as a result of the real, expected, or presumed rejection by family, friends, and our society in general just because of the sexual preference. It doesn't matter what the numbers are. There should be none. It doesn't matter whether homosexuality develops out of nature, nurture, or both.
