Purple Homosexualist 'Spirit Day' Saturates U.S. Schools, Media, Stock Exchange

An Internet-born movement to encourage solidarity with teen victims of gay bullying has spurred several celebrities, schools, and media to officially promote the pro-homosexual campaign by wearing purple this past Wednesday.

A young woman named Brittany McMillan, who spread the idea on her Tumblr account, and was championed by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), reportedly began the movement, which is intended to memorialize homosexual youths who have killed themselves.

Several media outlets endorsed the movement, including CNBC, the Today Show, E!, HGTV, Philadelphia Magazine, Ms. Magazine, The View, and numerous Spanish-language media. Even the New York Stock Exchange building was illuminated purple to celebrate the event.

But not everyone is pleased with the Spirit Day, which has been officially adopted in several U.S. schools, including high schools and elementary schools.

So basically they are saying they support gay sex for kids.

I hereby propose that people wear black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, grey or white (or mixtures of the above) to memorialize those straight people who have killed themselves. And that street lights be illuminated that night, either in white or yellow, in solidarity.

While homosexualist leaders often attribute these symptoms exclusively to bullying and discrimination, pro-family experts, such as the group Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays and Gays (PFOX), contend that homosexuality is itself a manifestation of a psychological disorder, and that engaging in the dangerous gay lifestyle presents a major threat to an individual's physical and mental well-being.

“”If teens are encouraged to believe that they are permanently ‘gay’ before they have had a chance to reach adulthood, their life choices are severely restricted and can result in depression.”

What did I hear? Isn’t it about time that was finally admitted that making bad interpretations about a kid’s identity actually hurts the kid. It almost sounds like I am listening to Elmer Fudd from Looney Tunes after he just struck himself on the head with his own mallet.

I would also say, however, that the rest doesn’t weigh out. Kids don’t need to have implications about sexuality shoved in their faces at a young age. I sure am glad I didn’t, at least until I learned what I had to do in order to become a Father when I was in late Middle School. Sometimes I wonder if pedophilia is somehow related to kids getting exposed to explicit material, not that I can prove it, but the concern is there.

Schools, media (of course, MSM Mainstream Media aka Men Who Have Sex With Men but I repeat myself), and even the Stock Exchange? This is madness. Children are being used as cannon fodder in the war against traditional or "real" morality. Please read Graybeard58's quote. It is the simple truth. If these kids were not indoctrinated into thinking "I was born gay and cannot change" they most likely would not commit suicide. There is real help for young people struggling with their sexual identity. Telling them that they are "gay" and cannot change is clanging the prison door shut on them.

I didn’t see one purple shirt yesterday. Then again, I wasn’t really looking very hard. And can someone possibly explain to me how in the hell the color of someone’s shirt is going to stop a teen from committing suicide?

I believe after raising four boys and working in the school systems that environment is mainly responsible for sexual identity. If parents belittle a child’s sex or make them feel inadequate for being a boy or girl, it will have a profound negative effect.

I would have been classified as a lesbian because I had brothers and was a major tomboy. It is normal for children to go through ages where girls love to hang out with girls and boys love to hang out with boys. Anyone who has read Freud understands the necessity for different stages for healthy sexual development.

Although Freud is wrong in certain areas, he is right about the different stages. Homosexuals know this and they want to fixate and label these kids as gay when they are normal. That is why Obama wants sex education in Kindergarten—so little kids (because they like their own sex better at these ages)—will identify themselves as gay.

Great article....these psychologist/philosophers thought sex is a social construct. I believe that natural law does have some effect, but the nature, especially boy’s, can be easily perverted because of their strong sexual drive. Boys have to be protected from homosexuals throughout development. Most serial killers are homosexual as were the Brownshirts. Charles Manson was a male prostitute as a teenager. It really is an obsessive, nihilistic, degrading, dehumanizing activity and should be treated as such.

http://www.academia.org/the-origins-of-political-correctness/

...Other key members who join up around this time are Theodore Adorno, and, most importantly, Erich Fromm and Herbert Marcuse. Fromm and Marcuse introduce an element which is central to Political Correctness, and that’s the sexual element. And particularly Marcuse, who in his own writings calls for a society of “polymorphous perversity,” that is his definition of the future of the world that they want to create. Marcuse in particular by the 1930s is writing some very extreme stuff on the need for sexual liberation, but this runs through the whole Institute. So do most of the themes we see in Political Correctness, again in the early 30s. In Fromm’s view, masculinity and femininity were not reflections of ‘essential’ sexual differences, as the Romantics had thought. They were derived instead from differences in life functions, which were in part socially determined.” Sex is a construct; sexual differences are a construct.
