We live in an era where violence and stigmatizing is across the board. We saw seen four policemen shot, one killed, in two days in our neck of the woods. We just witnessed two separate attacks on Jewish Americans, resulting in fatalities. People in every demographic are facing the results of our modern society's insistence that we break apart and hate each other. So why is this particular group somehow uniquely harmed by this so as to take it to the next level? Just saying 'mistreatment or stigmatized' - especially in our age where across our nation the LGBTQ community is almost deified, celebrated, defended and endorsed and supported - just doesn't cut it. Again, the days of just yelling 'Bigots!' as the all explaining answer to everything is fading, at least if we really care and want to solve the problems.
It's an axiom among them that the dissatisfactions of homosexuals are the fault of mistreatment by the larger society, which in turn is the foundation of the patron-client relationship they desire with them and an excuse to injure ordinary people in various ways.

The notion that their distress and their homosexuality arise from a common source or that their distress is actually generated by their homosexuality and not by other persons is something to which leftoids have a neuralgic reaction. (I've seen as much in fora like this).

Please note that the American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Counseling Association are all on board with the transmania and its worst manifestation. This should discredit not only these associations, but their entire profession.
I used to support the mental health industry back in the day, but it's tough not to see that somewhere along the line it's gone off the rails.
DeleteUnfortunately Dave, the homosexual community, being more well financed, educated and influential in those days, pressured American Psychiatric Association to remove homosexual inclinations from the list of mental disorders. That was a major mistake, but the homosexual community had more power than anticipated by the Association and when some their own members were threatened with exposure of their own homosexuality, it was to much to bear I'm afraid.
DeleteThe above is by Bob. Sorry.
DeleteBob, my parents used to say that homosexual activism will be one of the things that brings down our society. It's hard to argue given what we've seen and what we are seeing.
