In a move that serves as a significant blow to "ex-gay" programs and anti-gay organizations, Dr. Robert Spitzer repudiated his much-criticized 2001 study that claimed some "highly motivated" homosexuals could go from gay to straight.

Yes, but what do Dr. and Mrs. Marcus Bachmann think about it? There are no higher authorities on homosexuality than the two of them.

What do latent homosexual men think about when they have sex with their wives?

The crap if at all will hit the fan with all the adoptions of children by gays IMO, that is where the action will be, not this.

As these children are followed in their life we are going to see how many compared to the past follow traditional lives and how many want to change their bodies, have mental problems or try and kill themselves as half the transgendered people attempt to do.
We know Chastity Bono was assaulted by a Lesbian as a child and we see what happened to her down the road.

Cause and effect IMO in most cases and the interesting study and science will be in the honest reporting of what happens to the children adopted by gays.
That IMO is where the action is in the future.

If there is a gay gene, would they take a DNA shot to repair themselves?

In any case, gays are mostly nice people (as long and they stay away from tolerance training in schools IMO, too many activists doing the wrong thing there for me to TOLERATE that).
They deserve the right to work and live mostly in peace.
Like I said, most are nice folks.
BUT, we are going to follow the adopted children and that is going to perhaps give the greatest view regarding gays effect on children and society at large.
I hope there is no change and everything stays good. We'll see!

I would rather see a kid raised by a couple of gay parents who love them then to be passed around from foster home to foster home to be beaten and abused. The facts are already out on what happens to kids in foster care.
