Thread Name: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
If a Gay man went to his doctor and said he wanted to be cured of his gayness, his doctor would apologize and say that there is no treatment.

If a gay man came to me saying the same thing, I would say "If you don't want to sleep with men, then don't sleep with men. If you would like to find a girlfriend then go and find one."

Any trained psychologist or counsellor would merely act as a facilitator to assist their patient to work things out for themselves.

Some non Gay men make the mistake of experimenting with homosexual intimacy and later regret it.

Some bisexual men swing from men to women.

Some gay men force themselves into relationships with women to fit in with social and cultural demands.



If you want to be 'cured' then it follows you want to be with a woman.

If that is because you like women, then you aren't gay.

If it is because you are afraid of the consequences socially, that means you are surrounded by homophobesand has no bearing on whether you are gay or not.


So GfS's idea of a "cure" is, accordiing to current knowledge, utter nonsense.
