"Sissy Boy Syndrome"

T D · 06-08-2011, 04:13 PM

What should I search for on my tv to find this so that I can watch or record? What's the program called? What's it on?

You know, I found this shocking to read. But when I think of the things that were taught to me when I went to university in the seventies and eighties, that's what was being done at the time. It was cutting edge stuff. And the whole behavioral bandwagon - well I don't even want to start ranting about that! It doesn't seem as if they even considered possible negative effects for the "subjects". We were supposed to be as maliable as play dough. Incredible!

I agree Sue.

Maybe it's just my take on words, but by the very title of their work being focused on "unwanted homosexuality", I assume they mean it is not an active choice homosexuals make. I liken the phrase to "unwanted hair growth".

For me, it ( my sexual orientation) has always been there. It wasn't something that was trendy or experimental or was arrived at from playing with trucks. For me, what gives anyone the right to try to "remove" something that God obviously wanted me to have? ( Not that I am an overly religious person, however, it goes to their argument that homosexuality is against the laws of God).
