'''Teenage homosexuality''' is an important issue, given that how a person develops and behaves early in life can have profound effects in later life. For example, given the relevant information about teenage [[homosexuality]] in respect to the [[Causes of Homosexuality|causes of homosexuality]], it is important that teenagers and parents be aware of relevant and accurate information, due to a lot of misinformation or information based on ignorance or mere speculation being offered in the public square. Also, given the existence of [[Ex-homosexuals|ex-homosexuals]], if a teenager has already engaged in homosexuality or is a homosexual, there is certainly hope in regards to [[Overcoming homosexuality|overcoming homosexuality]] since the best evidence indicates that [[Homosexuality and choice|engaging in homosexuality is ultimately a matter of choice and so is leaving the homosexual lifestyle]].  In addition, teenagers and parents should be aware of the [[Homosexuality and Health|negative health effects of homosexual activity]] in regards to teenager homosexuality.  For example, in 2006, the noted pediatric journal  ''Journal of Adolescent Health'' published a position paper entitled ''[[HIV]] infection and [[AIDS]] in adolescents: An update of the position of the Society for Adolescent Medicine''. <ref name="adhealth">[http://www.adolescenthealth.org/PositionPaper_HIV_Infection_and_AIDS_in_Adolescents-update.pdf Position Paper: ''[[HIV]] infection and [[AIDS]] in adolescents: An update of the position of the Society for Adolescent Medicine''Journal of Adolescent Health 38 (2006) 88–91]</ref> The stated : "Among adolescents and young adults with HIV or AIDS, most infections are acquired by having sex with HIV-infected men."<ref name="adhealth" /> In addition, the ''Journal of Adolescent Health'' stated the following:

In regards to this public health care fiasco that certainly had an effect in regards to teenager homosexuality, [[Adolescent AIDS and Medical Community Negligence|there was a considerable amount of medical community negligence]].  In 2007, a journal article abstract for an article in ''The American Psychologist'' stated that "gay and bisexual male adolescents and young adults in the [[United States]] have been disproportionately impacted by the HIV pandemic" and that gay and bisexual adolescents and young adults in the United States have had "steadily increasing rise in their [[HIV]] infection rates".<ref>[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18020756?ordinalpos=34&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum  Sex isn't that simple: culture and context in HIV prevention interventions for gay and bisexual male adolescents, The American Psychologist, 2007 Nov;62(8):803-19]</ref>

{{cquote|Gay boys and straight girls who are having sex for money, shelter, love - they are at risk.  And our community, the gay and lesbian community - and I particularly fault gay men here - has done nothing to try to help our youth. Gay men view these boys as recreational toys to be used. I have heard many stories of HIV-positive men having unprotected sex with boys. They don’t think it matters.<ref>''America's Worst Kept Secret - AIDS is devastating the Nation's Teenager and Gay Kids are Dying by the Thousands'', Victoria A.

{{cquote|Gay male street youth, as well as non-lesbian female street youths, seem to be particularly vulnerable for emotional as well as sexual exploitation...

These relationships are often extremely damaging for a number of reasons. The "sugar daddy" usually presents himself to the youth in a loving caretaker role. For a street youth who has a past history of rejection and/or abuse, the promise of being loved and cared for is a compelling one. However, these relationships in many ways have similar dynamics to incest.

Many gay youths coming to YSD [Youth Services Dept. of Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Community Service Center] for services have long histories of being involved in a succession of "sugar daddy" relationships. Each of these is a cycle of falling in love, believing that life will now be wonderful forever and that this older adult truly loves the young person, discovering that in fact it is just sex that the adult wants, feeling the impact of one more betrayal, and ending up on the streets again. The whole cycle last an average of 1-2 months, and the youth often becomes extremely [[suicide|suicidal]] at the end of each cycle.<ref>http://fathersforlife.org/dale/heartbea.html</ref><ref>[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=1772888&dopt=AbstractPlus Kruks, G.
