Um.. Why has LGBTXYZ ppl grown in recent years?? Because they see it on TV/Media and get brainwashed..
..so they CHOOSE IT against their nature.
With out LGBT propaganda, there wouldn't be so many ppl coming out...
The LGBT population has not grown, more have been coming out as acceptance has been growing.
But if its a pseudo science what is the basis for declaring it a Mental Illness?
Less "I gotcha" more, where in the world are you coming from? You're simultaneously declaring your own basis for declaring something a mental illness pseudo science where it doesn't agree with you.
They established it as such by their own claims. My point is, they turned around and violated those very claims and removed it. So, if you think psychology is a legitimate field of study, then you have to object to the method that was used to remove it from the list. That is, it violated its own standards to establish such.
Now, realizing that it is not a true science does not mean it holds no established means of occurrence. There are many elements of behavioral study that while not established as a definitive via scientific method, can be reasoned as general in occurrence in truth. That is, we can say... "This is fairly commonly true, or occurs more often than not, etc..."
Homosexuality fits that evaluation of a mental illness. My point as I said was that when they removed it, they did not follow any reasonable means to establish it. It was purely to meet social demand, it was a political motive and decision, not even within the constrains of the fields own process of establishment.
There are numerous reasons why homosexuality is abnormal, deviant, and counter to sound mental process. If we are to claim that we have no grounds to object to such behavior as mentally ill, then we have no grounds to claim pedophilia, necrophilia, or the many other numerous sexual mental illness are wrong.
The evidence is simple, man and woman go together, female and male, pretty simple really. There is nothing to prove that wrong, no DNA no Test no facts to any claim that anybody is born gay. your free to believe whatever you want.

I am for gay marriage and gay rights but it absolutely has grown. You can't deny that at all! There is some sort of influence causing this and I think it's important to discuss for the validity of the gay community.

Gosh, do you suppose its the flouride they put in the water? Vaccines? Too much sugar in breakfast cereal?
Maybe its because there is no longer the fear that coming out as gay might mean the loss of a job and the loss of family. At least not as much as previously.
So far, no one here has answered my question. If homosexuality is a choice, then heterosexuality must also be a choice. So when did any of you CHOOSE heterosexuality? I didn't choose it. I was simply was attracted to the opposite sex when I was a teenager.
