I am very sad to report --- the story IS true. The pornographic books were distributed to youth. Below are Official Statements, more will be added as they come in. Fenway Community Health expressed regret for accidentally making available HIV prevention materials designed for people over 18 years of age at an April 30 conference attended by middle school and high school-age students, educators, public health workers, college students and others.
"Fenway Community Health regrets accidentally making available a small number of copies of the Little Black Book, an HIV prevention publication for gay and bisexual men over the age of 18, at an event where young people were present," said Dr. Stephen Boswell, Fenway Community Health's President & CEO.

A hidden agenda? The homosexual perverts? No way - they just want acceptance for everyone. THIS MAKES ME WANT TO SCREAM! How about suing THEM for a change!
"We regret the fear it has resurrected."
The last line from the GLSEN 'correction'....
the fear it has resurrected .... what a bizarro line. They didn't resurrect JACK ... they CALIBRATED what we are already convinced of!
This is surreal in the extreme ... it is like .... yes, this isn't a stretch, watching Kubrick's Clockwork Orange ... INVOLUNTARILY....
This is an OUTRAGE!!!!!
As usual.... All part of the big plan.
Rome IS beginning to fall, isn't it?
Just to enlighten you, people were comparing the moral decline in the United States and its negative effect on our country to Rome, when I was growing up, and I am several years older than you.
There is, of course, no harm in repeating that message.
Gee, I wonder what the glsen-homo in the little logo is doing with his arm?!
This is typical of Brookline, the birthplace of Mike Dukakis.
Click the GLSEN link in post 18 below. They already took off the retraction. But here it is for the record:
Recent allegations from the far right on the one-year anniversary of same sex marriage about the 2005 GLSEN Boston Conference-a correction
Boston, MA (May 18, 2005)
GLSEN Boston takes its conference and all the work it does on creating respect for all in schools very seriously. We know it leads to safer schools and safer students.
The Boston Chapter of the Gay, Lesbian, & Straight Education Network, GLSEN Boston, wants to assure everyone that for the last several years GLSEN Boston maintained and enforced a comprehensive policy that no sexually explicit materials will be available at the conference. We assign monitors to every workshop to assure that all policies are strictly enforced. Our standards are very high, and we work hard to ensure that the material made available to students is appropriate.
While we have worked tirelessly to reduce anti-LGBT name-calling, bulllying and harassment, we learned this morning (May 18. 2005) from the Fenway Community Health Center that a small number of copies of the HIV prevention pamphlet were available on their vendor table. This is new information that contradicts what we knew yesterday.
What happened at our conference was a complete breach of protocol. We were not aware that the material was there. The Fenway Community Health Center has apologized for this breach and has instituted additional training to ensure it never happens again.
I can assure that at GLSEN Boston we will re-double our efforts to make sure that not only our material, but the material brought in by other organizations is age appropriate. Again, we are deeply sorry. We regret the fear it has resurrected.
Thanks for the ping. Keep me on your list, please.
And pretty stiff, too, it appears.
"I can assure that at GLSEN Boston we will re-double our efforts to make sure that not only our material, but the material brought in by other organizations is age appropriate. Again, we are deeply sorry. We regret the fear it has resurrected."
Not fear, dumbshit. Outrage. And you can be assured that our anger has been re-doubled. Not only towards you, but for the defective system that helps you twist and traumatize children.
Bump and thanks for the ping.
Ahhh, what do we care? It doesn't directly affect *us* or *our* relationships, so what's the big deal?
Right? I mean, that's what all the pro-sodomy activists say!
(yes, this is sarcasm)
