Hello, world! Was the idiot who deleted my article on the treatment of sexual arousal disorders thinking I was talking about attempting to change my patient's because it appeared he was a possible "latent" homosexual. In 40 years of University teaching and practice I never once attempted to change sexual orientation. I didn't have the guts to go against the politically correct assumption that homosexuality can't be treated. I was almost positive that my patient was homosexual, but I knew there was no final proof in the assumption that this orientation could not be changed if a person was highly motivated to make the change. Back in my beginning years as a young psychologist before homosexuality became so popular and the "scientific community" just like thru the ages had called out the guard dogs. (what is so paradoxical is that for hundreds of years the guardians of truth was the Church)The Church probably held back the advancement of science more then any other insitution. Now it is PC that forbids a researcher to even try to publish a small article that simply says in its conclusion that perhaps this assumption was not scientifically proven. But what chaps my ass is that the purpose of the article was that a person who was possibly homosexual and didn't like it and wanted to have a baby thru natural processes came to me as his doctor and pleaded if there was any possibility of he and his wife having sex thru what he called natural processes. I don't even know if there were sperm banks at this time. This case was in the 1970s. If there were I KNOW I would have directed him to this source as an alternative. I certainly would not tell him to do it. I had been wondering for some time about this procedure for ego dystonic homosexuals. I had always first tried to get them comfortable with their sexual oreintation and deal with any depression or anxiety that always existed. This young man was a member of some Catholic Church that did not believe in any means of conception except what they called "natural". (intercourse) Before the APA got so brain washed and misdirected about what science was all about.."the pursuit of truth no matter where it leads us". I think that was even our oath. So after several visits it was explained to him that there was a method and several books had been written on using hypnosis and powerful sexual images to arouse men and women. Since he was aroused only by images of sex with men I explained that we might try him having these powerful images made stronger by hypnosis involving him and other men with his wife always in the scene. Gradually she became more and more involved especially with oral. He had homework assignments and his wife was never told what was going on in his mind. But gradually he begin to get aroused when his wife touched him and eventually he had an erection that was strong enough for them to have intercourse regularly. She eventually got pregnant and they had two healthy children. Now if I had to guess I would imagine that over time he probably gave in and practiced his genetic and/or early experiences (or hormones or whatever, we really just talk and don't know anything). He came to his doctor for a specific outcome and the treatment was successful. I am not now nor was I then homophobic. One day in the distant future scientist will look back at the gay and lesbians that were miserable maybe could have had a treatment if the PC guard dogs had not replace the church. I believe in one of the DSMs there now is the term "sexual arousal disorder. I am old now and retired and shake my head in disgust. I know what the early scietist had to deal with to search for the truth. I am not convinced of nothing.(sounds better then anything) At least at this moment I don't have to worry about my head being cut off. I am in a mighty rush to throw some things out there that I first expressed and to tell my story of Vietnam before I am dead. I am sick and supposedly have only months to live. But what do doctors know ? Whoever reads this I hope is not afraid to join with some others to not let the church or PC stop them from pursuing the truth and set back science for 100 more years. Go ahead and call me your favorite terms. This one would not be racist, but homophobic. Incidently, the first child this couple had was a boy and they named him James. I was well pleased.
