"Hmmmm if thats true it raises more questions.
Why would a school prohibit inmates from forming any sort of relationship yet its owner not only engages in a homosexual relationship (a disorder the school at one point claimed to treat) while also engaging in dangerous promiscuity?
It really would raise a few questions should it turn out to be true. "

Why is promiscuous sex dangerous if they engage in safe sex? Is your point that homosexuatity is a disorder, or that HLA is hypocritical by treating homosexuality as a disease at the same time its owner was gay? I have the same disdain for homophobes as I do for this industry. Many kids are incarcerated for little else than their sexual orientation. If the point of the post is to point out the irony of their gay relationship while treating homosexuality as disease that is one thing. If your point is to bash them for being gay thats something else."

I don't think that by listing homosexuality as something they treat they were calling it a disease. What was meant by that is that they helped kids who were having difficulties with their sexual orientation and were going through a difficult time with that issue. Never in my time there was a kid treated as having a disease if they were homosexual. Actually the opposite was true. Kids struggling with there sexual identity were just given an opportunity to work through that issue. Whether they were homosexual or not was not the real issue.

Uhm, from having 2 homosexual kids in my PG, and being in the counseling sessions, I can atest that you are incorrect. Their sexual orientation and actions partaining to it were often brought up and "dealt with" in a very negative light.

Could you elaborate on what the counselors say to the gay kids, how it was put in a negative light.[ This Message was edited by: Badpuppy on 2006-05-21 19:30 ]
