Dobson's folly

The irony of James Dobson and other pseudo-psychiatrists on the "Christian" right is that their "theories" about gender identity is quite similar to their equally kooky counterparts on the left.
They idea that gender identity is a purely social concept was very in vouge among lefty therapist in the late 60's and early 70's.

There were even cases of children with damaged or malformed genitals given sex change operations(along with hormone shots) and were raised as a member of the opposite gender. And the results were disastrous. These experiments failed and failed miserably.
New scientific evidence seems to indicate that gender identity is highly influenced by biology and the same seems to be true of sexual preference.

We might assume that a child who is destined to become gay might be psychologically damaged by attempts to "straighten" him or her out. If fact some of the "cures" for homosexually suggested by "focus on the family" seem vaugly homoerotic!
The Dobsonites also seem very naive about homosexuality. They seem to have the idea that "sensitive" or effeminate boys are more prone to being gay. But, quite a few homosexual men are very masculine. And there are many effeminate and sensitive men who are straight.(Just take a look at Ned Flanders!) And of course many tomboys are straight and many very feminine woman are gay

To complicate things more, there also is the "low down" phenomenon (which doesn’t just happen in the black community) whereas straight men secretly have sex with other men yet, consider themselves "straight". Or, some men have sex with other men only in prison and then go back to only having sex with women once they get out. (Would Dobson’s anti-gay parenting techniques prevent this?)

Besides, Jesus himself wasn’t the most masculine thing around. He had long hair and preached "love thy neighbor" and "turn the other cheek." A definite fag for sure, right?
Hell, since he was celibate we may never know what his true sexual orientation really was!
