Judge Hades Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 There have also been a study that concludes that chances of homosexuality in men occuring the more consecutive sons the woman has. Such as the third or fourth son is more like to be homosexual than the first born son or second, but they could no come to the same conclusion with lesbian women.

><FISH'> Posted August 29, 2006 Author Share Posted August 29, 2006 Severe procrastination and/or ADD can cross over into internet addiction or computer addiction. In this instance the individual has a compulsion to avoid reality by surfing the web or playing video games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atreides Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 My guess is sexual orientation's a combo if genes and environment, so if the site provides an environment to influence sexual orientation that's up to them.

alanschu Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) I'm thinking about it, but I don't want to waste my time if it proves ineffective. This website seems to aimed at men. While I can understand the material on that site, I can't relate to much of it since I'm a bit young and asexual. I'm actually feeling quite bi-curious lately :D Could be a sign of change...Could just be one of those teenage phases... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wait a minute...you're still a teenager? How old are you? EDIT: I see you're 15. It might be a bit early to claim you truly are asexual. Especially if you're starting to have some sexual curiosity.

Lare Kikkeli Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) yeah, i agree with alanschu. a bit too early. for example this girl i knew had no sexual urges before she was 21, and now she shags everything that moves. if i were you, i'd wait until i was at least 20 and then think about courses like those. after all most people don't know they're gay until they're well into their teens or older.

SteveThaiBinh Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) The site is very nicely presented and uses the language of empowerment, choices and rights. I don't believe a word of it, but everyone has a right to read this material and make their own choice. My own view is that they are perpetuating the falsehood that homosexuality is a 'condition' that can be cured. Look at their language - 'same sex attraction' is now SSA, like SARS or MS, an acronymed condition awaiting their intervention. It's still harder these days in most communities to be openly gay than to be heterosexual. I'd like to see that change, and for gay people to be genuinely accepted rather than either discriminated against or merely tolerated. When and where that happens, I don't think the message this site is peddling will get many takers. Edited August 29, 2006 by SteveThaiBinh "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

Purgatorio Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I completely agree. SSA oh look another ,it means Smutty Sinful Anti-socials. Gender affirming...what there are certain roles of men and women? How very progressive. So they can council me in a non judgmental way with scientific practises that I shouldn't do these things because it isn't masculine and then I snap a rubber band when ever I have these dirty and unnatural thoughts? Good to see the religious groups involved so I wont go to Hell. Hurray! "Demands for tolerance can never justify intolerance or ridicule of another" I am not insulted by the word tolerance I quite like being coddled and patronized. Wait I don't even have to go overseas there are people like this in my own country ,lobbying the government to allow this to be exposed in schools. What with the Catholic Church's Archbishop Pell and the little Fascist John Howard making deals with the Family First Party.....No we aren't affiliated with any right-wing Christian fundamentalists. We just think marriage is between a man and a women before the eyes of God anything else goes against our constitution. Tosser. End Rant: What fun! S.A.S.I.S.P.G.M.D.G.S.M.B.

thepixiesrock Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I don't find any real problems with this site. I think a few of you are just getting upset about it just because it deals with changing somones sexual orientation, and a lot of people think that's bad. It isn't right when someone else forces it upon someone, sure, but when it's the person's choice then there is nothing wrong with it. They have Churches, but also non-religious institutes also. You don't have to get involved with a church if you don't want to. Or you can if you want to. Like I said, they aren't rounding up gays and forcing them into this or anything.

Lucius Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I think he's referring to calling it "generic defect", as in we're somehow mutants.

Musopticon? Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) Ooh, this might be flamy soon. For the record, I think the reason for SSA(rolf) is a mix of genetics and outside influences. People can change and will change during their lives and dubbing folks into a closed category called "homos" is lame. Edited August 29, 2006 by Musopticon? kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Most of you are acting like this is something for gay people. This isn't something for gay people at all. This is for people who don't want to be gay, but get homosexual urges. That's why they don't say it's a service for gay people. Because it's not. They aren't the same thing.
