Why does Conversion Therapy Blame the Parents?

I am a gay man who is closer to my Mom than my Dad. I have a good relationship with both, but my Mom and I talk a lot more. I am also closer to my sisters than my brothers, but I have been one to do my own thing. A conversion therapist would easily say that I am gay because I am closer to my Mom than my Dad and need more male role models in my life. I have them. Yet, I wonder this: How do you account for a Mama’s Boy or a Daddy’s Girl who is straight? No matter what, the so called therapist will say that I didn't bond with my Father and I am looking for that bond in another man. I want to settle down and raise a family and be a Father myself; that is far from reliving a failed bond with my Father. 

So I dare to ask how do they account for those who are heterosexual who connect with their opposite sex parent? I am sure this would be a zap, but more than that it is a fatal flaw that I would like to see them explain. They won’t, their theory is a load of crap because as Dr. Christian Jessen said in an episode of Undercover Doctor “It’s easy to get a model and make it stick to anyone” Said model is flawed

Parker v. Hurley Prental Rights Violation or Elaborate Setup? I'll Explain

Image
Hello everyone, I was researching on Parker v Hurley in which a man was arrested because he didn’t leave his child’s school because he  said that he didn’t want to leave unless he was under arrest. When it came to the media and other Christian Right groups like Mass Resistance, he simply said he was arrested because he didn’t want his children learning that gay marriage is okay.  Now, of course there is a lot that wasn’t told in this whole thing: It was planned because there is a picture of him being lead away in handcuffs as well as footage of him speaking at a Board Meeting about the fact that books like Heather has Two Mommies and King and King were used as materials to teach kids about all kinds of families as well as the fact that two men and women are able to be married in MA. Now, the thing is I don’t see how any one learning about gay marriage in school is really detrimental since they don’t learn much about marriage unless it is being discussed as a matter of fact.

Conservative Family Values: All Fantasy, No Facts A Few Reasons

Image
Social conservatism has been nothing more than "Keep it the same because change is scary" Black men voting, women voting, Civil Rights for Black People, Mexicans being covered under the 14th Amendment, School integration, Same sex couples being married, no fault divorce, restaurants!  So let me get to the reasons Conservative Family Values are All Fantasy, No Facts  1. I t is a myth based on TV I enjoy retro TV, Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, Andy Griffith, The Waltons, SOAP, but do we realize a few things...the casts are all white. There are no problems other than something many people relate to like going to a dance alone or in the case of the Waltons, they're dirt poor in the middle of the Depression. But the formula is: Married parents, kids and they always find a way to pull through with good ole American elbow grease.  The myth of the American meritocracy persists even today with people thinking that if they can think their way out of poverty with hard work.

The Comments NOM Blog Is Likely To Take Down--or Not Approve

I looked at some of the comments posted at: http://www.nomblog.com/7366/ and I am sure that NOM Blog may not let such a well reasoned counterargument prevail on its board. I will check and see maybe tomorrow Let me address some things people are saying here: Homosexuality being a dead end lifestyle--BS! The stigma created by society on homosexuality is one of the most dangerous things that has been. When those wonderful children committed suicide, every bigot said it's because they 'embraced a deadly lifestyle' Horseshit! It's because of the simple fact that people made it harder for them to live their lives in an open fashion as they deserve Next, EQUAL UNDER THE LAW MEANS EXACTLY THAT! Those words are not hollow words without meaning and validity in court--that's why the AR Supreme Court struck down Act 1 Also, Anderson v. King County used circular reasoning in reaching the verdict. Reproduction--the fact is, older couples could be denied if m
