Homosexuality as a mental disorder in 1973

I don't know if Donald trump only knows 800 words, but your attempt at humour is really pathetic. I know what nee means. I'm pretty sure you understand the context as well.

Why do you insist on using words you don't know the meaning of? Why can't you just be like Donald Trump and stick to the 800 you understand?

Bit late mate.

So does rape, pedophilia, necrophilia and inter-special mating. But that does not make them natural by our definition of the word.

What overpopulation problem? The Japanese government is very concerned with the decline of Japan's birthrate. In fact it's considered a financial crisis for the country.

And yeah, those other things are natural. That is the definition of natural. That is literally the definition of natural. 'Good' and 'Natural' are not mutual terms. Things that are natural can be good and bad for humans, and, as I said, homosexuality is one of the good things, as it helps us keep overpopulation down. And don't start going on about Japan, like I said, that really isn't an argument. No other country is having that problem.

Key word 'Japan', mate. That's not an argument when you know the situation ion Japan.

No, you really don't, xyz.

The word fits, don't be pedantic.

its a prefix for a mothers maiden name. Usual context: Jenny Bridges nee Samson.

So let's try that out

"Now that's fine between consenting adults in today's world, but aren't we a species that has evolved for millions of years due to heterosexuality, hence the reason we have two sexes in the first place, born, the reason sex ****ing exists?"

Doesn't work, your words are squiffy and those guys are right, you're pulling them from nowhere.

Nice work with the google, man. But no, it really doesn't sit, and there's nothing pedantic about it. A good substitute for 'née' is 'born', i.e. "Jenny Smith, née Barnett" / "Jenny Smith, born Jenny Barnett"

So let's try that out

Then substitute "or rather" in for nee.

If you want to try "previously named" we could try that, but it's not looking hopeful.

Well, "or rather" isn't even close to what née means, so...

i used the wrong word to sound edgy. 😐

Anyway, back to the gays...

They are guaranteed to never have an abortion or beat up their wife.

That's pretty cool.

If homosexuality isn't bad, then why are you using it as an insult?

I didn't.

Homosexuality was listed in the DSM as a mental illness until 1973. At this time several thousand psychologists with the backing of a strong gay movement attempted to have it dismissed as a mental illness.

What say you? Is it a mental illness or not?

I personally believe in some cases it may be an illness as it is more associated with narcissim, bi polar, and borderline personality(outlined in numerous sources) but i'm sure many cases are not.

Up until the 90's it was still listed in an illness in one form or another...so what changed?

What changed is that people who identify themselves as gay gained more political, social, and legal power.

I personally don't think being gay is a mental illness. I do think transgender people have a mental illness and it worries me some states spend money on helping people achieve this. I just don't think homosexuality is what mental health professionals need to be focusing on.

I agree with surtur but transgender people are practically the new "gay" imo.

I think a better title for the thread would be homosexuality is a disease.

I believe homosexuality is a disease, prove me wrong. Pro-tip, you can't.

You really are trying way too hard for attention, role it back about 50-75% percentage, as to not make it so obvious. YW.

Not humoring your trolly attention seeking points is denying you the attention you're seeking though. It's the reason why you're frustrated right now.

You'd think "I want to cut my dick off and turn it into a vagina" would be met with heavy therapy at the least.
