"rimming" "fisting" "golden shower" "gay gut" _______________________________ "Homophobe" is an epithet commonly used by gay activists to describe anyone who objects to the practice of homosexuality or the gay rights movement. The 1989 book, "Sex and Morality in the U.S.," put out by the Kinsey Institute, referred to the term as "erroneous" (page 294). The book goes on to say that "the assumption that 'anti-homosexuality' is a phobic response, (is) a conclusion that lacks convincing support." According to Dr. Jeffrey Satinover, who has practiced psychoanalysis and psychiatry for more than 23 years, "It was coined to mean both a worry about being homosexual as well as to refer to an opinion that homosexuality is not good." Satinover, a former Fellow in Psychiatry and Child Psychiatry at Yale University, says that in recent years the word has appeared in some federally funded studies without being satisfactorily defined as a medical condition. "This use is a pure corruption of the medical process," said Satinover, "Opinions are not diseases except to dictators." _______________________________ "Political correctness is just tyranny with manners. I wish for you the courage to be unpopular. Popularity is history's pocket change. Courage is its true currency." - Charlton Heston in a speech before Arizona's House of Representatives in January 2000. - Attachment Filename: C:\archives\governor\mail\Governor Musgrove\_attach\- Fort Wayne Mayor to Issue Gay Proclamation -\Mime.822
