z_squared saidSad and disgusting. And even more sad is that people believe this crap. When I came out, my parents asked if someone molested me as a kid.

makeumyne saidWhile this book is disturbing, it is not even slightly unexpected - this clearly states using words and pictures what fundamentalist religions really believe is the truth behind being gay.
It is exactly for this reason that I think Gay Pride, being openly gay, and being a positive role-model for our youth is so very important.
JBE60 saidI went back to AfterElton.com, and I think I came across the same book. Supposedly written by a member of the ex-gay movement (last name of Cohen) who was molested when he was younger. Like other members of the ex-gays, he believes that you can "cure" homosexuality (as if it was a disease), because it has its' basis in unhealthy relationships with important males in gay mans childhood.
