Love is unconditional, approval is not, and shouldn’t be.

“And why don’t I find the line below reassuring? My first reaction is that maybe that the school “guidance counselor” and “therapist” belong in jail, or worse, for child molestation.”

Anyone can argue that point till they are blue in the face, it will be no less true!

Rudi was notorious for jumping anything, anything with a pulse.

“Nureyev is certainly not gay.”

That would have been news to him:

“Nuryev is certainly not gay.”

No, nor Barishnikov, nor Gudunov. It’s a cultural thing.

Culturally, in the US, ballet is seen as feminine and several sports are seen as masculine. To enroll boys in ballet or girls in football is going against the norm.

I’m not saying it’s wrong, I’m just saying, it’s not typical.

In Russian, most dancers, ballroom included, seem very much hetero and I’m sure there’s not much baggage to enrolling your son.

I would not enroll my son in ballet as long as I lived in the U.S. Tap dancing, maybe. The action of enrolling in ballet means something here that it doesn’t in, say, Russia.

Similarly, I am enrolling my daughter in soccer, but I wouldn’t enroll her in rugby or football.

All this proves, and all these parents should have learned, is that they have completely and totally failed in their jobs as parents. And of course, they are likely liberal. Or is saying that a redundancy?

Ah, I see. So, are Dick and Lynn Cheney wonderful parents for raising a heterosexual daughter (Elizabeth) who went on to give them 5 grandchildren, or are they horrible failures for raising Mary who turned out to be a lesbian?

Here's a thought, maybe they didn't have anything to do with Mary turning out to be gay.

Somewhere along the line I’ve stopped believing this BS. I simply am not capable of believing that anybody “discovers they are gay” at age 14; I have a much easier time believing that kids are being recruited.

I find it very easy to believe. I suddenly discovered that I was heterosexual at age 13. Prior to that epiphany I was completely happy without girls in my life, and prefered the company of bicycles, G.I. Joes, bb guns, and other like minded boys.

However, one day, and I still remember it with clarity, I was watching the Sunday matinee on channel 13 with Carmen Cleary. The movie was 100,000,000 years B.C. Something in Raquel Welch in that fur bikini literally jump started my libido which had lay dormant for 13 years, and immedietly after it happened, even Carmen looked good. After that, I never once preferred the company of a male over that of a pretty girl, even for conversation.

Trust me, I know many,many gay people. Not one has ever said they were recruited.

Hell, I don’t even think it’s possible. After my aforementioned awakening, you could have spent all day trying to convince me that I didn’t really want to see Raquel naked, but I never would have believed you.

So, you are claiming that Raquel recruited you? Is that what you’re saying?

Everytime a gay thread comes on, I feel like posting an MP3 of the old Rogers and Hammerstein chestnut “Keep it Gay.”

I don’t really think that article is appropriate for FreeRepublic. All it does is express pure propaganda of the homosexual militants who are trying to change our society. Their agenda is very easy to see as they try to normalize what is obviously sick and perverted.
