Stories out of the closet

in #gay7 years ago (edited)

Since @PRP-LGBT suggested a topic for the next edition of this Magazine, I will take a chance and write a post about curing homosexuality.

Here is a small zine I released a few years ago. It consists of different stories from my queer and sexual awakening period. One of them called "Reparative therapy".

Unfortunately, not all the people have such a "light" version of the therapy. And again, unfortunately, such practices still exist in the world. Here is world map where you can see that in most of the countries such a therapy still legal.

So there is no way you can sue a doctor who prescripted you tranquilizer just because you are homosexual. I only can say thanks god we live in relatively civilized times because in last century it was absolutely normal to use ice-pick lobotomies; chemical castration with hormonal treatment; aversive treatments, such as "the application of electric shock to the hands and/or genitals"; "nausea-inducing drugs ... administered simultaneously with the presentation of homoerotic stimuli"; and masturbatory reconditioning in order to "cure" you.
