Bwild: It is agreed that the terms surrounding homophobia are often recklessly & reactionarily thrown around by those us who advocate for LGBT inclusiveness.  It often does not enhance constructive dialogue.

It is also true, however, that the American Psychiatric Association and all other reputable professional psychological organization reject reparitive therapy for homosexuality, and many studies verify therapies which try to change sexual orientation are harmful.  It is, therefore, submitted that any finding by an "ex-gay" organization is suspect.

In addition, it is also true that many of the most vehement anti-gay politicians are caught with hands in the proverbial cookie jar.  They deserve to be taken to task by Gay rights activists.
