In recent years, Ted Haggard, an evangelical leader who preached that homosexuality was a sin, resigned after a scandal involving a former male prostitute; Larry Craig, a United States senator who opposed including sexual orientation in hate-crime legislation, was arrested on suspicion of lewd conduct in a men’s bathroom; and Glenn Murphy Jr., a leader of the Young Republican National Convention and an opponent of same-sex marriage, pleaded guilty to a lesser charge after being accused of sexually assaulting another man.
One theory is that homosexual urges, when repressed out of shame or fear, can be expressed as homophobia. Freud famously called this process a “reaction formation” — the angry battle against the outward symbol of feelings that are inwardly being stifled. Even Mr. Haggard seemed to endorse this idea when, apologizing after his scandal for his anti-gay rhetoric, he said, “I think I was partially so vehement because of my own war.”
It’s a compelling theory — and now there is scientific reason to believe it. In this month’s issue of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, we and our fellow researchers provide empirical evidence that homophobia can result, at least in part, from the suppression of same-sex desire.

This is a very real problem. I never hear about homosexuality from neighbors who are gay couples, as they are secure and happy with their lives and it is nobody's business about the aspect of their lives that partially is manifested in their bedrooms. But some people who are obsessed with homosexuality protest way too much that they hate the sexual orientation if same gender attraction. They should get therapy, find a partner their gender and shut the heck up and stop bothering people about their obsession 24-7.
Bitchy women cause men to seek - find a father figure - savior !
If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !
Realizing you have that problem is the first step. Seek a qualified therapist.

That would explain yukon. He should have stayed out of the closet. When he was resigned to the fact that everyone knew, he immediately stopped being an asshole.
Exactly what I was thinking!
Well, he got over it.
but i thought HE WUZ HACKED!

Hell! Threads like this are a wet dream of Mikes, he soooo wants to be excepted he just keeps on fishing for a 'gay headcount' to please himself, so he keeps harping on anyone who believes homosexuality is wrong, a sin. He ignores those who tolerate homosexuals that are not radical, its the radicals with an agenda I despise, but he's too stupid to understand the difference, he thinks if you bitch at a person enough, call them names, they can be shamed into changing their minds. Bull Shit! He actually thinks you can brow beat a person into accepting behavior you loath, and abhor. Go figure! It's his problem, he's the one who needs lots of 'therapy', with GOD Himself, man can't do a thing for him, but stroke his ego, and doom his soul! jmho!

Actually, after posting on forums since the mid nineties, not to mention doing quite a bit real time activism, I know those with whom I actively debate issues like this with are not likely to change their minds anymore then they will make me change mine. And usually, the game is to aim the focus at those lurking. Something not really a huge demographic in this forum's audience. So actually, it's very obvious I just discuss political issues and stories mainly because as a political animal, I like to. Your view of what I post and why are twisted by your overwhelming desire to lash out at me for your own purposes, Louise. You can't browbeat me with your distortions about me or my political beliefs anymore then you could win with that thread you did a while back where you posted about people with names similar to mine trying to ferret out no-existing evidence that I am probably a criminal hoping in vain one of them would turn out to be me. Amusing post, sweet heart. Thanks for sharing. (By the way, you mean 'accepted,' not 'excepted.')

Agree. F****t Mike has a myriad of psycological problems that would take a team of Viennese doctors a year to diagnose. Personally I think he has a crush on Stone who he sees as a father/authority figure.

Heehee, I didn't see that because I have Badeye on bozo. Sound more like he is speaking for himself then me. ;-) He tried for making me sound gay, and wound up accusing me of wanting to commit bestiality.
Projection seems to be another rampant conservative trait.

Boofie, if you are going to practice psychiatry without a license, at least try to spell psychological correctly, K? http://www.meganslaw.ca.gov/cgi/prosoma.dll?searchby=offender&id=1869408335399 Murron tried to get dirt on me and probably paid badlie to do the background check. If this is the best results you can give her four eyes, she deserves a refund. The guy above is the Californian she was hoping was me. And if she got the hots from him and thus is devastated into deep depression and disappointment, she lives in Kentucky. She can always go out in the hills and find a bubba like him that craves 14 year old girls or younger without even breaking a sweat trying. So she does not have my sympathy.
This side by side comparison reveals that the hetrophobe on the left, is a lot queerer.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Actually, that 2006 picture shows me leaving the Portland Saturday market office after a hard weekend's work. I see that picture of me quite differently, dude. You can see the scars on my arms from my injuries doing activism, the shirt was one I made and much like the others I sold jointly with a partner because I had my duties as an at will employee keeping me too busy to do a venue there all by myself. I am wearing a 40.00 handmade hat by the Hat People from Talent Oregon, have an expensive bicycle and bicycle messenger bag with me because I'm about to ride eleven miles home. If you think hippie and iconoclast=gay, you are spinning yourself into oxygen deprivation honda-do.
Is the one on the right you? Or between the two of you does Mike have more huevos?

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!! You mean like, if you are a "liberal"/"progressive"? Do you HATE CONSERVATIVES? Maybe you ARE CONSERVATIVE? LOL! Toady.
Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.
Yikes!..is that the same person? The one on the left seems to be wearing lipstick.

"A friend will calm you down when you are angry, but a best friend will skip beside you with a baseball bat singing, "someone's gonna get it"
That's two words. Now, can you do a complete sentence? Explain why you are intolerant of us heterosexuals and where does paranoia fit in?
Notably, these “discrepant” individuals were also significantly more likely than other participants to favor anti-gay policies; to be willing to assign significantly harsher punishments to perpetrators of petty crimes if they were presumed to be homosexual; and to express greater implicit hostility toward gay subjects...
