That's one thing that made me a little doubtful about her story, though: that she went to a Sunday School "where the teachers hammered home the lessons of conservative faith. ...that [people with same-sex attraction] were disgusting and basically godless, very low people"?
It just doesn't seem likely. Not that they would deny the danger of truly losing your soul, but most of the conservative churches would use words like damaged rather than damned -- and they'd be calling, not for hell, but for healing.
I wonder if this reporter would follow up and say, "What church? What pastor?"
Nah. That's too much like actual reporting, i.e. work, and not just presenting Miss Civic Role Model with a print bouquet.
The Lord will judge your soul. Men will judge your actions. Thus it has ever been.
She doesn't want to be called a fag but identifies herself as a queer.
Its like a black person not wanting to be called "nigger" but its ok to be a "coon!"
Weird logic.
Some might say that "job" might not pay a lot but as we've seen full-time whining and PC hackdom pays fairly well in certain parts of the country.
I don't see the whole "LUG"syndrome making any sense.Is there a similiar trend among college men?
I just can't see some 20 year old guy saying to himself"Gee,gays seem pretty cool.I was always straight but I think I'll let Barry,Tom and Dick bang me from the rear and then after graduation I'll go back to liking girls again"
I mean,really!
Sasha and her three siblings lived with their grandparents in Salem for several years while their parents were in and out of trouble with the law.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Here it is. Abuse. Isn't this a common thread among homosexuals.
I just can't imagine experimenting with the same sex. The thought just really grosses me out. I lived in a sorority for 3 years in college (and an all female dorm my freshman year) and the thought of playing with girls never entered my mind. Yuck, yuck, yuck. Give me a strong conservative man and I'll die happy. (of course, at this point I can't be too picky. If it moves that's ok too).
I tend to agree with you in that someone else's sexuality isn't any of my business and as long as they aren't in your face with it (no pun intended), I don't give a darn.
As for the name-calling, it is usually a front for a weak or non-existent line of reasoning. It has become pretty normal here on FR, and it's sad.
Hear that John?????
For me, it took an incident years ago where people talked about me in very brutal and defamatory terms to teach me the lesson that harsh words tear a person apart. It happened to me.
Does anyone remember the Simpson's show where the bully Nelson looks at himself in the mirror and laughs, then says to himself, "Hey, that hurts."???
This is sick. What is this "Oregonian", a gay activist paper?
Yep. That about nails it.
Awesome post, thanks!
I think part of the motivation for the college females comes from the fact that heterosexuality under the prevailing conditions works out so poorly for women.
Back in the paleolithic days of, oh, say, the 1970's, the guy had to invest something in the relationship other than his ornament. He generally had to be your pal for awhile, and if not possibly saying "I love you," he had to notice if you cried.
Now the norm seems so detached as to be almost dismembered. If the author of Unprotected is telling it like it is, the college women are being hit with the expectation that they're going to be treated like sexual spittoons AND that they're supposed to like it, like the house niggas who were expected to slave AND to sing and dance.
All that and gonorrhea of the throat? Wow.
No wonder the American college campus is the Land of Lesbian Opportunity.
People who have to go around justifying what they do are trying to convince themselves first.
Sounds like a potential job candidate in the hardware section at Home Depot..............
OK, you dyke!
Wow. A real toughie. Bet she can lick all the girls at school!
Whatta they do,call the local paper and say hey, I'm a radical lesbian, want to do a story on me???????//
