A new study has revealed that lesbian, gay and bisexual high school students have a higher rate of pregnancy than their heterosexual peers.

Confused? Keep reading.

Research, led by Dr Lisa Lindley, a professor of global and community health at George Mason University, looked at the sexual orientation of 9,703 New York students – analysing their sexual identity and the gender of sexual partners.

The findings revealed that 23 per cent of reported pregnancies were women who categorised themselves as lesbian, and 20 per cent from those who identified as bisexual.

This is in comparison to a lesser pregnancy rate of 13.3 per cent in females who identified as heterosexual but had slept with women, and 13.7 per cent in those who had only ever slept with men.

So far, so surprising. And the results were just as unexpected when it came to the guys.

The study revealed that 28.6 per cent of gay and bisexual men had got girls pregnant, as had 37.7 per cent of those who have sex with both men and women, with just 10 per cent of straight men having got a girl pregnant.

What’s key here, according to Dr Lindley, is educating students of every sexual identity (especially the LGBT community) about birth control methods to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

‘Sexual orientation should be considered in future adolescent pregnancy-prevention efforts, including the design of pregnancy-prevention interventions,’ said the study’s conclusion.

Thoughts?
 
Huh. Drunken accidents, maybe? Homosexuals and bisexuals trying to convert to straight-ism (Did I just accidentally create a new religion? :P)? I don't know. :dontknow:
 
Its possible. But than most people can go out and get knocked up.
