They get well paid for trying, the results are not mandatory.

Like I told a friend who sent me this link expecting me to get angry and indignant... it's hardly surprising. Sad, yes... surprising? No.

Speaking of being gay...I got this link from a friend of mine a while back.  Vanessa's article reminded me of it, (and its not 100% right on topic) but it's too cute.  http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/88515/Quacking-gay-love-story

i have one of those home-diagnosis medical books at home that suggests that the best course of action to 'cure' homosexuality is 'aversion therapy'...  
(honestly it does!)

Many years ago- mom threw me in the car- took me to be cured.   While there,  the psychiatrist told her that I did not need to be cured.  LOL.   My aunt was with and the expression on her face was priceless.

Lets suppose I do get cured.  Honestly- I am not tuned in to all the heterosexual signals- the do and dont when in mixed company.  Like I realize some of the signals,  But I dont know enough of them to not get an azz kicking over it.

Then I see the trouble heterosexual people have in life.   So it isnt as if- cured- life then is bliss.   :-)

Though not all that comfortable yielding a flogger, it was one of my better switch moments. Evil grin.

I'm happy that it wasn't 5 out of 6.  This clearly shows one of the problems in the mental health field- the lack of science and certification (primarily because the practitioners could not agree on even some basic definitions) which allows charlatans (and religious zealots) to flourish.  About a century ago, a mother wrote to Freud asking him to "cure" her son of homosexuality.  Freud's response was that homosexuality was not a disease, and therefore could not be cured.

True.

More like a feverish affliction where one suddenly can coordinate separates and accessories.

I think every time they show you images of a homosexual nature they shock ya with a cattleprod and every time they show you hetrosexual images they give ya chocolate.

Dammit, lushy!  All the subbies would become gay then!  The only straight women left would be wanting chocolate from me all the time!
