Psychologists association: Therapists shouldn't tell gay clients they can become straight

I can't believe nobody has commented on this very important announcement.
What will 'Wil' do now? He has made denying this information his life. Now what? Poor guy!!!!!

But I'm glad, finally we have been vindicated by the 'learned'.

Poor Willybea. I'm sure he's just sick about this news.

Y'all should know by now that Wil has never let reality intrude into his anti-gay fantasies and this won't be any different. He'll simply pretend that it is just another "unscientific statement" by a "gay political committee" of the APA and continue on with his merry delusion that all the "peer reviewed studies" say he's going to be straight some day, oops, I mean, we're going to be straight some day...

Well duh! But the bullheaded conservatives refuse to listen to reason.

This is going to send the Christians right wing nutbags into apoplexy!!

Oh WIIIIIIILLY! Where ARE you? Come on out and PLAY!

So you can't change from what you are...MY...MY...MY....and we have said it all along. The tiger can't change it's strips nor the leopard it's spots.

or how about dumping religion entirely?

seriously, it is a fetish thing to cling to such hate?

This world would be much more peaceful, tolerant and advanced as a civilization without religions repressing the populace, imposing their archaic ideals and in general hindering growth as a species.

Box Turtle Bulletin has an excellent article regarding the resolution passed by the APA at:

ohhhhhhhh let me be Wil!!!!!!

<clears throat>

Now EVERY peer reviewed study says blah blah blah blah blah blah
So I know what I'm talking about even though I have no idea what I'm talking about...

And that's the way it is, Perkin IL

Ha ha... After some in-depth research, I personally concluded that Wil was an inmate at a correctional instution in Pekin, Illinois. Haven't heard from him lately, so maybe a.) he got paroled, and now he can't afford a computer. b.) he called the wrong inmate a faggot and got the snot beat out of him and got sent to solitary... or c.) he got a new cellmate named "Snake" and is now enjoying being the bitch in a mutually beneficial relationship of convenience.

What a maroon.

What a load of b*llsh*t.

Whats wrong with you looney christians? Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!
Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!Its not a choice!!!!!!!!!

It can n ot be changed without it that person behaving in an unnatural way.
Impossible.

We love being gay. Its you weirdos that want us to be ashamed and change our ways.

My advice. Give us equality. We will get out of your hair. And we will have absolutely no impact on your christian baby booming faith. Which I do not disrespect.

Its a really very simple resolution.
Homosexuality has no impact on human procreation. Because its not a choice, this means it has not tempting impact on your childrens sexual orientation. YOU DO NOT TURN GAY.

If a man becomes gay in middle age... it just means that the power of the human mind has suppressed his desires. Or just plainly denied it for so long. Another reason for this is that society (you) has said its wrong. So children or young adults deny themselves.

The mind plays games on denial in order to fit in and survive.....

If it were a choice... do you think we would subject ourselves to this humiliation and discrimination?

Exactly. Think about it!!!

If you tell a minority that they should be ashamed of themselves.... especially a child. Of course you will have denial. suicide.

The cause of all this misery is from the christians. Not gays.

I know it's not because I am tired of the way men treat women and I would choose to be lesbian if it were a choice. I have wished it but it doesn't happen.

I have a lesbian friend who wishes she were straight.

Doesn't work for her either, we can't even trade places.

Frankly, any psychologist or mental health professional who would tell an LGBT client that they could "become straight" should have their license shredded and burned. In more than 50 years of serious scientific inquiry into homosexuality and gender identity, there is not one study which has ever indicated that sexual orientation can be modified except through traumatic abuse, which obviously creates many more problems, and permanent psychological disfunction.

Any professional who would prescribe traumatic abuse as therapy is a complete idiot, and should be banned from the profession.

But, as I've always said, if you really want to talk to someone about adultery, sexual repression, child molestation, or other peculiar disfunctions brough about by trying to deny one's identity as a natural sexual being... you really need to talk to someone with real-life experience in such things, like a heterosexual baptist minister or catholic priest.

People don't become psychologists if they are interested in getting laid. Nobody wants their moans and orgasms to be that deeply analysed.

I think I remember ya'll saying something about an inmate posting on here. I wasn't aware they were even allowed internet access. That's news to me. I'm curious. What gave away that he was an inmate and how did you research that without knowing his last name?

He's still around and probably a guest of that correctional facility, but since his favorite threads were disappeared on him, he's resorted to hit and run tactics where he can post his favorite spam chunks and move on. The site is clearly fed up with him and you really have to catch his posts fast because they tend to vanish almost as soon as they are posted. I think he's going to avoid threads on this subject simply because he knows people are waiting for him.
