This is a new one. "Let's have homo sex in order to cure your desire for homo sex." Sounds legit.

Not so very new.

When I was in high school, I used to always offer the girls my, ahem, "services" in order to cure their desire for hetero-sex.

Perhaps the fellow is so ugly that he can make men straight or women lesbians by having sex with them
...or he’s just full of it.

Wait, you pulled a Lou Diamond Phillips?

Did you have sex with that man yes or no. No. Ok thank you. trial over.

[Getready]

Maybe he is ugly...and would not be “attractive” to the other “patient”...he can claim he is using aversion therapy.

This story is especially bad because it plays into one of their favorite narratives... that everyone who opposes the gay agenda is secretly gay. Their game is a no-lose proposition. If you’re for them, great, you’re an ally. They win. If you’re against them, then you’re secretly gay yourself, so they win again.

This goes along with the phrases War is Peace and Ignorance is Strength.

Was a twist of barbed wire involved?

That’s quite a sacrifice... 🙄

Homos just want to give other men a hug.
