Based on the hostility of the homosexual community to anything which suggests that someone can change from gay to straight, I have to wonder what their reaction would be if the cause of homosexuality was isolated and a 'cure' was found. Take a pill, like poon-tang if you will. |
I suspect the reaction would be very mixed. i know many people who would give *anything* to be straight. and i know many people who are happy and secure in their queer idenities. in a society that was accepting and open to queers, i doubt there would be many takers. but i'm sure at least a few would...
i think the reason the change movement is seen as traitorous is that they trade in many of the same anti-queer tropes that make life as a queer such a pain. they sell a false hope and make people all the more self-hating...and since there is no "cure" the only way to get through this happy is to be accepting and grateful for who God made you to be.
