Just in time for Xmas

Much like VD, Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, of NARTH fame, just won't go away. His latest "gift" for us all is a new read, entitled A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality. In it, you'll find such wonderful bits of wisdom as:
....Nicolosi and his wife urge parents to intervene as soon as they spot trouble: a boy playing with dolls; a girl romping only with boys. They tell fathers to be close to their sons, showing them how to fill gas tanks and partake in sports, and they warn that if fathers don't hug their sons, someday another man will.And:
Mothers, they say, must avoid over-involvement in their boys' lives. Children should find playmates of the same gender, so girls who might tend toward lesbianism can learn feminine ways, and what he calls "pre-homosexual boys" can be toughened up by other boys' roughness....And:
The Nicolosis suggest that parents replace toys, games, and articles of clothing that are not specific to their child's gender. They stress the importance of "extinguishing feminine behavior" in boys with "gentle and consistent disapproval."And, for the tomboy in your life, Nicolosi says:
parents should also watch out for tomboys. "In and of itself, a girl who wants to wear blue jeans and climb trees is not a cause of concern," said Nicolosi. "But the pre-lesbian condition includes stereotypic rejection of femininity, only wearing things that look like a boy's, being emotionally detached from the mother, wanting to play only with boys."
Ah, Joey, Joey, Joey. Nice to see you are still repackaging your discredited "ideas", gained from the shoddiest of source materials in order to reach the most damaging of conclusions possible. Well, this is America, so I guess its perfectly alright to make a buck off of self loathing gays, especially when it's your intellectually bankrupt work that helped to foster that self -loathing in the first place.
Merry Christmas, you twat.
Thanks to Ian for some citations.
