KIDS DESERVE BETTER
A CRAPPY FACT
Maybe it’s bad to let yourself get too personally involved in the numbers . Still, MisterScienceAintSoBad’s heart felt sad when he flipped past a report in The American Journal Of Public Health (Heather Corliss) which tells us that one in four teens who “choose” (SURE they do) not to be heterosexual are also “choosing” the street. Gay kids – lots of ‘em – are homeless kids.
You wanna know what I think?
You can guess.
Pathetic.
It says (up at the top) that I make science funny.
Not today.

(Please don’t think I’m saying the Journal article says that teens “choose” homosexuality. It doesn’t. But the “choose” thing’s still out there causing lots of misunderstanding.)
