One of the distressing aspects of the misplaced mystification of the causes of this disorder and the emphasis on the "natural" or inborn factor is that it discourages both clients and therapists to do something about it; that way, the myth that the orientation cannot be changed becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I don't accept the premise that there is something wrong with gay people. I don't believe evey homosexual person is evil. I believe there are good gay people who function and contribute within our society.

I do not accept the premise that there are "gay" people. Nor do I accept the premise that the undeniable fact that people who feel predisposed toward and or choose to engage in homosexual sex positively function and contribute within our society as a result of their predisposition toward or actual choice to engage in homosexual sex.

There are many human beings who are predisposed toward or actually choose to engage in any number of activities who ALSO positively function and contribute within our society -so what?

Discussing "gay" without discussing homosexual sex is missing completely the only thing differentiating "gay" from the rest of humanity...

As such, your use of the "gay" term to refer to males suffering the homosexual disorder does imply you have perhaps unwittingly bought into the homosexual agenda propaganda party line (people are like animals, captives to their urges and not able to choose what they do or do not do) hook line and sinker. This being the case -your ability to rationally discuss the topic is severely flawed from the outset. There is a BIG difference between discussing human beings that always merit respect and dignity versus discussing human behavior(s) -you seem to attempt conflating the two and in essence necessarily imply any human behavior is acceptable -is this your rationale?

homosexual: Definition, Synonyms and Much More From Answers.com

homosexual

adjective
Of, relating to, or having a sexual orientation to persons of the same sex.
noun Usage Problem.

A homosexual person; a gay man or a lesbian.
USAGE NOTE: Many people now avoid using homosexual because of the emphasis this term places on sexuality. Indeed, the words gay and lesbian, which stress cultural and social matters over sex, are frequently better choices. Homosexual is most objectionable when used as a noun; here gay man and gay woman or lesbian and their plural forms are called for. It is generally unobjectionable when used adjectivally, as in a homosexual relationship, although gay, lesbian, or same-sex are also available for adjectival use. See Usage Notes at gay.

As far as I know the only thing that differentiates homosexuals from heterosexuals is SEX.

Perhaps you can provide insight beyond more than touting this 'gay' term and educate me on just what comprises the "cultural and social" differences which are exclusive to and encompass male homosexuals?

In other words -is there something fundamental that I am not aware of premising the term 'gay' OR is it simply as I suspect a leftist "usage suggestion" -propaganda parroted by both witting and unwitting tools of the left?

"I don't accept the premise that there is something wrong with gay people."

There's your problem.
BTW, they're NOT GAY, that's a euphemism to hide a sick perversion. They're Homosexuals.
