Oh, now Kinsey's studies were simply flawed and not distorted, when did that happen? When I showed you the APA used his studies? I have been involved with the ex-gay movement for over 20 years and I have yet to see Kinsey quoted as an expert. In fact, if you have taken the time to study what men like Dr. Satinover say about Kinsey you would have found this: Under the guise of its being a "mental-health" panel, and using the false cover of the Kinsey Report (which claimed to be scientific, but which even then had been long condemned by the American Statistical Association as invalid), Hooker's Task Force issued a set of "policy" recommendations based on the claim that homosexuality had been shown to be normal, a degree of bisexuality was the universal norm, and whatever unusual distress homosexuals might display was due to social prejudice. The elimination of all forms of social prejudice against homosexuality was a "mental-health" prerogative for the nation.

When Hooker appealed to Kinsey in her book she knew she was appealing to a discredited study.
Read my sentences carefully. Kinsey's studies were flawed yet not completely distorted. However, that is irrelevant. What is relevant was that the studies that your sources appealed to were flawed.
Manipulated by 'unprincipled' men and women? My god, that's a laugh. I don't know how long it will take you to realize that the APA has nothing to do with whether or not homosexuality is a disorder. In the meanwhile, I'll just sit here and laugh.
For a man who has been appealing to the APA in most of your posts why the sudden dismissal of the APA? The fact of the matter is the APA controls the DSM, which is the manual appealed to by courts, so there is a valid reason to show that the APA was manipulated by unethical men and women with a socio-political agenda.
When are you going to stop posting your hateful lies about a subject (the ex-gay movement) that you know absolutely nothing about?
:roll: Wrong again. The only time I appealed to the APA was concerning its decision to remove homosexuality from its list of disorders, which I argued was done from the standpoint that there is no evidence to suggest that homosexuality is a disorder. Your continued rant on a gay conspiracy hold on the APA is becoming very pathetic and very old. It is irrelevant to the discussion.
