This should be titled "A Parents Guide to Getting Away With Pedophilia". That picture is just so damn creepy.
If I ever found that in my house... :tantrum: I might actually give it a read, to see what the person in my house was thinking. But in the end, I would probably end up burning it. And I'm one for respecting books.
Guys, lets all get together and write a book "How to prevent Heterosexuality" Because if someone can write about preventing homosexuality, that isn't impossible. I'm sure it will be a hit =w= On a more serious note, I'd actually love to read that book. Just to see what it has to say about it. Then laugh and go draw rainbows on people.
lol that's a pretty nice-looking cover tbh... i guess it's the olden-times looks to it. well y'know, minus the meanness to it
"Blasphemy is the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for a religious deity or the irreverence towards religious or holy persons or things." According to Wikipedia. Basically it's dissing something religious and is seen as disrespectful.
Oh dear.... I'm lucky in the fact that those people in my relative tree are extremely distant from me. Pardon the irony, but how in the hell do you deal with that? And for the book, wow. Pouring your money down the drain on that when we've barely started to recover from an economic downturn... :eusa_clap But seriously, I'm at a loss for words. Whatever happened to 'Thou shall not judge' or 'love thy neighbour'... or in this case family? Sad really.
I have already come up with a plot on how to deal with such a situation: 1) Steal the book 2) Tear out several pages 3) Attach said pages to wall 4) Write "I know what you think" in large red letters 5) Scatter remaining pages on floor 6) Leave pageless book on coffee table (Warning: May result in death)
Your parents sound like mine. I wish everyone could just leave people alone for what they like. :dry:
Ouch... That kinda stings, if I saw that on my mom's bookshelf I'd burn it and just wait for her to come asking about it.

Ugh, it's so sad to me that some people feel like you can "prevent homosexuality" or that it is something that one would even need to/want to prevent in the first place. Sometimes when I read these sort of ideas, I'm amazed that they are not a joke and that people actually believe this stuff. I'm sorry your dad was seriously reading that kind of book.
To be fair, it says "Preventing Homosexuality." I think that doing that is wrong, but "preventing" it is totally possible. If you start with a newborn, it's pretty easy to meld their sexual identity, some cruel psychologist did an experiment on his child and his kid ended up with a crippling fetish to cheeseā¦I'm not even kidding, we learned about that in psych.
Fetishes do not change your sexual orientation. You can condition someone to respond sexually to various stimuli, but that is NOT the same thing as sexual orientation. Edit: I mean, he may have had a fetish for cheese, but I expect he still fell in love with humans.
