[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Delusional. Priests had opportunities to access both boys and girls. Guess what? In almost every instance they chose males. Not because that was all that was there, it was all they desired. There is always this knee-jerk reaction when someone brings up the painfully obvious point that gay men flooded the priesthood particularly from the ‘50s to the ‘80s and some of them had proclivities towards young males. Shocker.”

There are zero studies showing LBGQT folks are any more likely to be predators than heterosexuals. What did happen is the church clustered young men, many in their teens, in all male seminaries. Some, like St Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore, grew a frat like culture where older students indoctrinated the younger classes. The young seminarians were told that sex with a male did not violate their vow of chastity, that only vaginal sex with a woman did. They were correctly told that boys rarely reported abuse, so were safer targets  The testosterone students did what they were told, to fit in; and the Archdiocese did nothing. After being ordained (like The Keepers Father Maskell) they continued to torture and prey n boys more than girls - believing they could have sexual release without breaking their bow of chastity or being reporting.

Uh, zero studies except for the fact that it was almost exclusively men sexually abusing boys. Ask any truly heterosexual male if they would consider being with another man to satisfy their sexual desires and they will universally say no. I don’t need studies to tell me that. Again, let priests marry, and take the church back (as we are) and you will see the abuse go away. [/quote]
