‘Study’ says fast food causes homosexuality
A new ‘study’ claims to show that eating fast food and not getting enough sleep can cause homosexuality.
The unusual paper, ‘Modern diet and stress cause homosexuality: a hypothesis and a potential therapy’ was published on the website of researcher Rita Strakosha, Queerty has reported.
The self-published study is notably not peer-reviewed.
Strakosha’s paper claims that LGBTI people eat more fast food and are more likely to have an unbalanced diet, and concludes that this is a cause of homosexuality.
She wrote that eliminating foods high in fats and sugars from one’s diet could “decrease and… prevent the return of homosexual attractions”.
Stratkosha said sleep deprivation is also a factor in causing homosexuality.
She recommended people who want to stay straight should “steer clear of food that can be disruptive right before sleep, like heavy or rich foods, fatty or fried meals, spicy dishes, citrus fruits and carbonated drinks”.
The author cautioned that diet and sleep may not work to cure everyone’s homosexuality.
“Persons with a longer history of homosexual attractions and those with stronger prenatal or genetic factors would have more difficulty in achieving benefits from this therapy,” she noted.

Beware the rainbow sprinkles. They make you trans.
This was a self-published study – the researcher published it via Amazon herself first and then her website. It was not peer-reviewed, it was not published in any medical/research journals.
It’s a non-story and doesn’t not deserve to be republished on this site.
Get over it!
Presumably they meant you’ll like “coke”.
Really what can you say to such stupidity except..Wow. but thank you for the laugh.
She obviously knows nothing about gay people. Many lesbians love organic; many gay men hate highly processed carbs; we already have better diets! Is she saying that all the fat bogans who eat too much fast food are going to turn gay? This is worse than Mr Kellogg creating Corn Flakes to try to stop young people masturbating! What a complete idiot.
I was born in 1947 before fast food. Perhaps homosexuality causes homosexuality. You talk about it like a disease not as the privilege it is.
Rita Strakosha haven’t you got anything better to do with your life? What a stupid waste of time. You have some issue with diversity I presume…bugger off intellectual timewaster
I don’t understand how people like this can have this drivel published as a “study”. Fast food and foods high in salt and sugar lead to many health problems like diabetes, heart disease and other dangerous issues. Lack of sleep elevates this as well as cause weight gain. Those are the only facts that should be published.
Claiming that fast food and lack of sleep causes homosexuality? That’s absolute garbage. So if you see someone eating at McDonalds or having a plate of chips at a restaurant, you automatically assume that they’ll turn gay? People like this need to stop being listened to or having their so-called studies published. This person is no researcher, she is merely another bigot looking for something else to pin on our community.
What a load of rubbish. Is this woman actually employed to publish such tosh?
