Hi, I'm a little unclear about whether you've had any encounters with men with your wife's permission and knowledge? I'm not sure how to reconcile...
It's totally natural. Let go of that ridiculous conditioning. Nah, you've got it backwards. Not coming out will lead to profound loneliness and...
Of course, when you feel that someone is personally attacking you or failing to imagine themselves in your position, it's difficult not to get...
Yeah I agree with all of that. I don't think that either side is immune to thinking that their way is the only way, though. The internet seems to...
Even though the sports issue has been weaponised by right-wing media, I do think more liberal types do themselves no favours by pretending that...
Involuntary feelings of attraction, not willed like conversion therapy claims. "Newfound feelings" are often newly-acknowledged old feelings....
Yeah, that article already excludes the "vast majority" of people from being "sexually fluid" and says their orientation is fixed. So conversion...
Ok, could you point me to some of the evidence that sexual orientation can change? You have a degree in psychology but you don't care about the...
Yeah I think it is inherent. I doubt your sexuality was different in the past. Probably you were just in denial. You don't care that no medical...
The "choice" is often that some young gay person is forced by religious parents to endure a pseudoscientific ordeal that has been shown repeatedly...
Lying to themselves, yeah. They might believe their own lie because they desperately want to. Religion is good at redirecting repressed sexuality,...
Sounds like a conversion therapy brochure. Have they found a straight gene?
I believe permanent sexual side effects are rare, if that's any consolation. You could always switch to a different kind of drug like Wellbutrin...
That that is even a question is just morally insane.
@mnguy Thanks for the response and I'm sorry that you're experiencing similar feelings. I don't think anyone who hasn't experienced this can truly...
Hi! I was just wondering about people's experiences of social anxiety. I often experience this endless, manic, hyper-amplified internal voice...
I've seen you say this before and I don't really know what you mean. Could you cite studies that show what you are talking about?
No sorry, keeping to the initial question asked, I should have said that I was raised Christian but stopped believing in my adolescence.
I don't see any reason to believe in god - certainly not one who is all-loving and all-powerful, given the hideous cruelty and pointless suffering...
Some people are just born more prone to fear, I think. It's like some cats are more nervous than others, and you can change them to some extent,...
