This is a sad comedown for Dr Gottman.

I'm not sure those whose "committed" relationships last 1.5 years with 8 instances of infidelity are really in a position to teach anyone anything about relationships EXCEPT "How NOT to do it!"

Sad for Dr Gottman.

I've gotta look this up to see if he and his research is being accurately characterized.

Mr. Leather

The largest gay gathering in the World!

On International Mr. Leather/Chicago Free Press

Friday, June 06, 2003

"IML [International Mr. Leather] weekend offers workshops from financial planning to flogging, receptions with slaves and masters and bootblacks, porn shows, smoking parties, dance-a-thons and perhaps the largest leather market in the world. 'It's all a big family affair,' said [David] Kloss [the first ever international Mr. Leather]."


- Chicago Free Press, May 21 edition, on the then-upcoming annual IML conference, held at Chicago's Palmer House almost three weeks ago.

"...John Gottman, a University of Washington emeritus professor of psychology who directed the research along with Robert Levenson, a University of California, Berkeley, psychology professor."

These two are just plain nuts.

If these deviants had some insight into relationships, then why would AIDS be part of the obituary involving so many "committed" homosexual couples?

[chicagolady]

Homosexuality is damaging to society. Over Memorial Day weekend, here in Chicago, the International Mr. Leather event returned. First-hand accounts of hotel workers who were molested, security guards who resigned over fondling, as well as the inability to be allowed to keep order, and the city police who looked the other way while the most disgusting displays of ingestion, consumption, expulsion and any other bodily functions took place in public rooms should settle this issue.


But if you are still not convinced, go out and buy a copy of Dr. Cary Savitch's book, "The Nutcracker Is Already Dancing." Our fear to speak out on basic understandings of right vs. wrong is preventing our society from reaching its potential. But beyond that, we are also laying the foundation for a destructive future.


So what am I suggesting? That my otherwise clear-thinking conservative friends and colleagues be courageous and remind the world that one of the basic tenets of conservative values is knowing that there is such a thing as right and wrong. And for as long as God's creation has been here, homosexual behavior has always been - and continues to be - morally wrong.

Gay couples are just like dolphins: they have so much to teach us, if were were only intelligent enough to understand their language.

[Jeff Chandler]

Oy vey!

...the researchers explored the conflict interaction of homosexual and heterosexual couples using mathematical modeling techniques.

That settles the that!

"Gay and lesbian couples are a lot more mature, more considerate in trying to improve a relationship and have a greater awareness of equality in a relationship than straight couples"

What a load of crap.

My taxdollars are subsidizing sodomy, I see. Ugh.

Gay and lesbian couples are a lot more mature, more considerate in trying to improve a relationship

I haven't read all of the posts, so this may be repetitive, but give me a friggin' break!

I have known gay and lesbian people most of my life. In the pre-AIDs days, gay men were some of the most notoriously immature people I have ever met. I won't go into the sexual escapades, whoring, etc. that went on. From my viewpoint now, this hasn't changed that much - constantly changing partners, drug use and abuse, physical abuse run rampant. And God help you once you get older.

Regarding lesbians, I do think that they can have more longstanding and mature relationships due to the different sexual nature of women vs men, but I have known plenty that were as bad as the men.

There is nothing that I want to learn from gay or lesbian relationships in general. I do think that particular people can always teach us something, but to say that gays have better relationships is just not true.

I have gay people in my family. However, they are older now and matured when most gays were in the closet. I'm not saying whether this is right or wrong. It must be difficult to live that way. However, they seem to be much better balanced people than the young gays I've met. They are people, workers, family members first - their sexuality doesn't come into it.

Jeez, this is crap is going on at my school...
