Ha! Cherry pick much?
I note directly after the part you used:
"Prior research suggests an association between same-sex marriage policies and mental health.9,11,19- 21 Use of and expenditures on mental health care significantly decreased among men who have sex with men in the year following legalization of same-sex marriage relative to the year prior in Massachusetts.22The effect was not dependent on partnership status, suggesting that same-sex marriage policies may have broad effects on the mental health of sexual minorities beyond the direct benefits of partnership or marriage."
And the conclusion of the paper:
"We provide evidence that implementation of same-sex marriage policies reduced adolescent suicide attempts. As countries around the world consider enabling or restricting same-sex marriage, we provide evidence that implementing same-sex marriage policies was associated with improved population health. Policymakers should consider the mental health consequences of same-sex marriage policies."
See that's the problem with some No'rs like you, you are very disingenuous.
