It figures that the CBC would have this show with just this one sided bend to this issue. If figures that they would bring on this MD who made this particular documentary. You would never catch the CBC showing the other side. I don't trust the CBC for honest unbiased reporting.

SEe that's what I'm trying to understand. Take that woman who was hooked up with Ellen DeGeneres. She was staright, then she was lesbian, now she's staright. How does that work if you don;t choose?

lol. this is rediculous. "this is not a propoganda film". electric shock treatment with the scary music in the background? "if you're in a religious community you will find yourself in a place like this." gimme a break.

Homosexuality is a ... ( 2 months ago by CitizenGeek)

Homosexuality is a discovery, not a choice. It just took Portia longer to realise that she was gay than for some people.

Array ( 2 months ago by takomaguy)

Hmmmmm....
No disrespect, but a discovery? People often discover things and make a decision to embrace it or leave it alone. You walk into a restaurant, you love the food. It becomes your favorite place. You meet someone who is a real jerk, you decide nothing to do with this person. I was in school with
a guy. He announced he was gay. In less than a year, he was dating a girl. My neighbor was with a coulpe of guys. Now he has a live-in g/f. I don't get it.

he's talking about anne heche who married a guy after she broke up with ellen.

The situations of ... ( 3 weeks ago by natalyincanada)

The situations of people sometimes make them do stupid things. If the guy at your school said he was gay and later was dating a girl, maybe pressure from his family or something forced him to. Or maybe he discovered that he still liked girl AND guys. Sometimes we just simply don't know what people is going through. Are you just curious about this topic or are you some religion, homophobic freak? (you seem like a good guy...)

Homosexualism IS, ... ( 3 weeks ago by natalyincanada)

Homosexualism IS, in fact, GAY. They are synonyms. And smart people is against it because those idiots believe that it's not a choice and that it can be cured, as if it was an illness. And those 'Ex-gays' are probably having wet dreams about guys anyways.

As far as I know, gay men still produce sperm. So you're theory is wrong.

It's ignorant for you to believe that AIDS (meaning GRID) is actually a gay disease. Go shoot yourself in the head.

"Are you just curious about this topic or are you some religion, homophobic freak? (you seem like a good guy...)"
LOL! I am a good guy, and thanks for saying so. Look, I don;t remember how I stumbled across this vid. But I say a statement, I didn't understand, based of what I've seen in the media, at school, and from some of my neighbors. I could be wrong, but I don't think I believe that people are necess
arily gay. Either way, I don't believe that people ought to be tortured, either.

Well, I'm glad. Unfortunately, some other people are just... so dumb and ignorant that you can't help but feel sorry for them (such as Some dude that has posted have the comments that are in here, as if he didn't have anything better to do.)

"I was in school with a guy. He announced he was gay. In less than a year, he was dating a girl. My neighbor was with a coulpe of guys. Now he has a live-in g/f.
I don't get it." What don't you get? You know, there's such a thing called bisexuality...
