Did Daily Show appearance wipe ex-gay therapist off the map?
It appears that one of our gay-therapy-advocate "friends" (remember: they love the sinner, but hate everything about them) has actually managed to do something stupid enough to upset the other loonies with whom he carpools to the Wonderful Land of Make Believe every morning. A few weeks back Daily Show reporter (and stealth Canadian hottie) Jason Jones did a hilarious and incredibly bizarre interview segment with Richard Cohen, the author of Coming Out Straight (I think it's subtitled "Adventures in Self-Delusion" or something like that). In true Daily Show tradition, Jones made his guest look like a complete boob -- which in this case was like shooting fish in a barrel. Here's the clip, in case you missed it (and what went down after)... But apparently Cohen's dalliance in televised career suicide was even embarrassing enough to turn other ex-gay advocates against him. Mention of Cohen has apparently been stricken from the record of Parents and Friends of X-Gays (PFOX) entirely, and NARTH (whose Hitleresque leader I lovingly detailed in a previous post) has eliminated all recent or future mention of their involvement with Cohen. This is awesome -- Cohen could be a living, breathing "tipping point". Now that the ex-gay nutters have all but openly admitted that one of their most visible speakers is loonytunes, the rest of them could topple like the self-righteous house of cards that they are. For a detailed history of the fallout, check out this blog. Submitted by on Mon, 2007-04-09 14:40. |
