New Blog Post: the BBC fails again - child sexual abuse is not why we are gay
There's another new post on my blogy thingy.
Click on the link below to see my musings and rantings
If a straight person had said they had been molested or raped as a child would we declare “oh this is why you are straight?” No, we wouldn't – because straightness is assumed, it's the default. But if you're gay something must have happened to you. Something must have changed you from true, pure straightness. It must be due to trauma, it must be due to damage – because it can't be normal right? It can't be natural? It can't be who we are!
Hey I got the link this time! I'm getting good at this *preens*
