To drive a nail in the coffin even further, check this out..from the "RE: An Open Letter to Michelle Shocked" thread:

"Worth a read.

I have never met a "cured" homosexual who was not psychologically screwed up in one way or another."

(My insertion)....Then if you never met one, perhaps you should have not touted yourself as a homosexual activist, being as you have very limited exposure, to many that have got out of it.

Frotho continues: "And, as a matter of fact, a follow-up study on a group of "cured" homosexuals verifies my observation."


(My insertion)....a study??...by who?..who funded it??...for what outcome???

Frotho continues: "For the vast majority in the study, after "therapy," simply reverted to their former behavior."


(My insertion)....BEHAVIOR???????????? Where have I heard that before??? I thought you were bantering that it was 'genetic', as if they were another species of humans, who were due 'equality' for their BEHAVIOR!


Froth continues: "A large percentage bailed out, gave up sexual activity entirely, and became celibate."

So fucking what??? Are you assigning sexual activity quotas now?? That is their own business, not yours, nor ANY political ideology's business. There are a lot of Catholic clergy who are celibate, too..you aren't frothing about that...and how about them there Buddhist Monks....screams, OH my God, they are celibate!!..quick 'fix' them!!

Frotho: "And more than a quarter of the sample began to suffer from serious anxiety and depression. There were six suicides."

Because they were celibate?? not homosexual?? felt shame?? inadequate?? damage done from being homosexual??
Your innuendos are just sophistry incomplete!

Frotho: "So it would appear that Michelle Shocked might be one of "the cured."

I thought you said it wasn't possible....

Being as you seem, really not too knowledgeable about the topic of your 'politically based homosexual activism', I think you should seriously consider retiring from it.....you just don't know enough about giving REAL support to the PERSONS affected, and your chief concern is how you 'look' as an 'activist'.

Don't bother replying...your trip is a farce.
