Federally Funded Group Advises Teens on How to Decide if They Are Gay

CNSNews.com) - A group that has received more than $16 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services over the past 15 years maintains Web sites that advise young people on how to decide if they are gay, how to come out to their parents and getting active in causes ranging from abortion to "comprehensive" sex education.
 
The group says none of the federal grants it receives are used to support its Web sites.
 
Advocates for Youth is a non-profit group that describes itself as an “organization dedicated to creating programs that help young people ages 13 to 24 years old to make informed and responsible decisions about their reproductive and sexual health.”
 
Its main Web site contains many pages of advice and information about sexuality. The Web site also includes  “tool kits” and “lesson plans” for “youth, parents, professionals and press and policymakers,” including a “heterosexual questionnaire” to give “straight people an opportunity to experience the types of questions that are often asked of gay, lesbian, and/or bisexual people.”
 
“Is it possible that your heterosexuality is just a phase you may grow out of?” one question asks. “If you have never slept with a member of your own sex, is it possible that you might be gay if you tried it?” another asks.

Yep, that's your tax dollars at work.   :banghead:

Gotta love govt at work.  :thatsright:

and doesn't giving someone a quiz to decide if they are gay kinda go against their whole argument about being born that way? I mean, aren't you supposed to know deep down in your soul all the way down to your pink loafers?  :whatever:

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Hell, Jeff Foxworthy could've done that for'em.......and made a profit.

If you smoke a pole......you might be gay.

If you take one up the old poopshooter.....you might be gay.

If your girlfriends name is Steve....you might be gay.

"... is it possible that you might be gay if you tried it?"

That was theline of reasoning generally reserved for getting kids to eat brussel sprouts.

Urging kids to "try" gay sex?

Only pedophiles urge kids to try sex PERIOD.

I've never stabbed myself in the eye with a fork.  I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it.

The mods oughta set up a "Golden Fleece" forum, aka Sen. William Proxmire's program from some years ago.

"How you know you don't like gay sex if you haven't tried it?"

I haven't tried arsenic either but I'm sure I wouldn't like it.....they both probably leave a bad taste in your mouth.....and one is just a faster death than the other.
