Subject: Re: To Cindy who keep getting it wrong Author: XOX [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 17:04:37 04/22/05 Fri In reply to: ¥H§Q¹F 's message, "¡i²×©ó¥X¤â¡G§Ú­Ì¬°¬Æ»òµo°_¡u¤Ï¹ï©Ê¶É¦Vª[µø¥ßªk¹B°Ê¡v¡H(Ãö±Ò¤å)¡j" on 17:24:52 04/19/05 Tue //Oh yes, you got it finally. Dr. Spitzer was the first one to suggest that homosexually be removed from the list of pyschiatric disorder and claimed that the behaviour cannot be changed. // Yes. That is what I have been trying to tell you. //And Dr. Spitzer changed his position now. That's the point.// No, that is not the point. Dr. Spitzer didn't change his stand on removing homosexuality from the psycharic disorder list. But he questioned if sexual orientation could be changed or not, which is different from his original stand. Dr. Spitzer only stated that from his study that some gays could reduce their homosexual desire if they really tried to. But the study based on self-reporting, and we still don't know how many of these gays were originally bisexuals. And majority of these gays didn't change their sexual orientation, but have reduced their sexual attraction to self sex. As the subjects themselves are volunteers, these are gays who don't accept themselves as gays and try to change it, many of them are from anti-gay churches. Last but not least, heterosexuals who have accepted their sexual orientation would not want to change their sexual orientation, the same go with many homosexuals and bisexuals. Even if there is a slight chance that it could be changed, which is still highly doubtful according to Dr Spitzer' professional peers, why would anyone want to do that if they are happy with who they are.
