My guess is that if people are ever convinced that homosexuality is totally normal and natural, and then pubescent boys are exposed to gay pornography, there'd be a much higher percentage of bisexuality. But no, propaganda by itself isn't going to make people totally gay.
We are succumbing daily to the will of the minority. Look where this is leading us. We are forced to change our way of life to accomodate very small groups. It this fair? Surely not.
Are special protections which are in effect redundant laws, needed? I feel like my rights are being eroded day after day. Each time a special right is conferred upon a small group, by definition it erodes the rights of the rest at the worst, creates conflicts at the best.
Life is good!
But does that mean they're recruiting?

Cached We finally realize that recruitment is the only answer...lesbian goals must be to recruit more lesbians." Homosexual activist Kathy McDevitt, in an appearance before the Davis City, California City Council in 1980. Davis Enterprise, October 2, 1980. "[I am] tired of the old chestnut that our movement for public acceptance has not increased and will not increase the number of gay men and lesbians in existence. There are more of us than there used to be." Donna Minkowitz, "Recruit, Recruit, Recruit," Advocate, December 29, 1992.
Face the Truth -- "Gays" Recruit
Every day in this country, hundreds of young people try out homosexual behavior for the very first time. In some cases, these experiments are with peers, but very often the sexual partner is an older person (sometimes much older) who has already identified himself or herself as "gay." Most of us think of recruitment as the seduction of an innocent, perhaps emotionally vulnerable child or youth by an older sexual predator. Consider, however, that even homosexual experimentation between peers can be evidence of "gay" recruitment. Recruitment is a mental and emotional process that begins long before the first sexual act occurs. In the truest sense of the word, "gay" recruitment is a process of changing someone's attitude about sexuality, rendering him or her more likely to take that first step into the "gay" lifestyle. In some cases, recruitment emboldens a person to initiate a homosexual contact, in others it simply makes the person more susceptible to being seduced. In the relationship between recruitment and seduction we are not necessarily talking about pedophilia (adult/child sex), yet the process of "gay" recruitment is very similar to a tactic of pedophiles that psychologists call "grooming." In "grooming," an adult sexual predator will sometimes spend years cultivating a relationship with a child, leading him or her into a sexual relationship only after the child has been thoroughly emotionally and mentally prepared. "Gay" recruitment is like "grooming," but it doesn't only occur on a one-to-one basis. The most insidious "gay" recruitment is being conducted by "gay" propagandists as a nationwide marketing and public relations campaign. In this campaign, all of our children are being "groomed" at the same time: their attitudes about homosexuality are being changed by one-sided, pro-"gay" propaganda in public education, in television programming, in movies, in music, in advertising, and in every other attitude-shaping institution influenced by "gay" activists.
Understanding this simple truth greatly increases our chances of protecting our children from homosexuality. Recruitment begins in the mind and in the emotions; it begins when a person is persuaded to consider trying homosexual behavior. Not every young person who concludes that "gay" is normal will experiment with homosexuality. Neither will every child who experiments become exclusively "gay." Yet we know that all children explore life's possibilities. When homosexuality is presented as a normal option (instead of being discouraged), many will experiment with it who otherwise wouldn't. Some of those will choose to stay in the "gay" lifestyle, or remain trapped there by this strongly addictive sexual behavior.
As a matter of fact, in a few years, this researching group might modify their findings if they realize that their methodology needed improvement.
Will you accept the new and improved statistics if this researching group says that 11% of Americans are homosexuals, or 7% or 19%?
You can easily imagine the gay lobby quote the "improved" statistics and say, Even the researching group often quoted by fundamentalist Christians to support their 2% number now believes that the correct number is 11%."
As Mark Twain pointed out, statistics is a tricky game. I'll take this statistic as well as the other ones with a grain of salt
I think so...propaganda prompted most Germans in the 40's to justify exterminating Jews, and prompted most of your 60's era hippies to become liberals. Once you have the head...the rest of the body will follow.

Igra's primary value to us today is that he was an eyewitness to the changes that occurred in Germany; an eyewitness with a uniquely prophetic sense of the danger of "gay" influence in society. I consider it a great privilege to be able to review his work for the modern reader.
Igra's Thesis: Homosexuality Was at the Root of Nazi Evil
"I had finished the writing of [Germany's National Vice]," writes Samuel Igra, "when my attention was called to a British White Paper, 'Concerning the treatment of German Nationals (including the Jews) in Germany,' in which the following statement is made: 'The explanation for this outbreak of sadistic cruelty may be that sexual perversion, and, in particular, homosexuality, are very prevalent in Germany. It seems to me that mass sexual perversion may offer an explanation of this otherwise inexplicable outbreak.' [Page 20. His Majesty's Stationary Office, 1939].
"The author of that statement is Mr. R. T. Smallbones, who was British Consul-General at Frankfort-on-Main from 1932 until the outbreak of the war in 1939. Previous to 1932 he had been stationed in other German cities. His opinion therefore rests on firsthand experience of the German people for a long period of years. I am convinced that his explanation is the correct one. For, as a matter of fact, the widespread existence of sexual perversion in Germany, not only at the time the Hitler movement rose to power but also under the Kaiser's regime, is notorious... And authorities on criminal sociology are agreed that there is a causal connection between mass sexual perversion and the kind of mass atrocities committed by the Germans (ibid:7).
The Roehm Purge, then, was not a "moral cleansing" of the Nazi ranks, but a re-alignment of power behind the German government which was primarily forced upon Hitler by powerful political elements whose support he needed to maintain control. Igra goes on to point out that not only did the majority of the SA homosexuals survive the purge, but that the massacre was largely implemented by homosexuals.
There is no question that homosexuality figures prominently in the history of the Holocaust. As we have noted, the ideas for disposing of the Jews originated with Lanz von Leibenfels. The first years of terrorism against the Jews were carried out by the homosexuals of the SA. The first concentration camp, as well as the system for training its brutal guards, was the work of Ernst Roehm. The first pogrom, Kristallnacht, was orchestrated in 1938 by the homosexual Reinhard Heydrich. And it was the transvestite Goering who started the "evolution of the Final Solution...[with an] order to Heydrich (Jan. 24, 1939) concerning the solution of the Jewish question by 'emigration' and 'evacuation'" (Robinson:25).
I assume that you are joking. I was very surprised to find out when I visited DC last year with my son that Washington has a very large gay community. It is even pointed out in guidebooks for the general public that Dupont Circle and much of the surrounding area are full of gay-run businesses. I wondered what it might mean that Washington of all cities seems to have such a large collection of gay people.
