Homosexual Discussion Forum10% MythActually, Aineo, I have read over and over in many articles and on many websites that the torture and murder of Matthew Shephard occurred very shortly after the Ex Gay movement took out millions of dollars of advertising. Is there a connection? Maybe so, maybe not, but it sure did help to put the "being gay is a sin" vibe out into the world, didn't it? Perhaps you are the one peddling the myth and obfuscating the truth, no? The greatest scientific and psychological intelligences currently leading the planet think so. Here is what the American Psychiatric Association stands on what you do: http://www.sciencedaily.com/encyclopedia/ex-gay "Even though most homosexuals live successful, happy lives, some homosexual or bisexual people may seek to change their sexual orientation through therapy, sometimes pressured by the influence of family members or religious groups to try and do so. The reality is that homosexuality is not an illness. It does not require treatment and is not changeable." The APA has also stated that "Clinical experience suggests that any person who seeks conversion therapy may be doing so because of social bias that has resulted in internalized homophobia, and that gay men and lesbians who have accepted their sexual orientation positively are better adjusted than those who have not done so." You're right. Some people are in need of desperate psychiatric help but it ain't the Homosexuals, baby. |
