HE was ALWAYS gay, always.

OK Captain Queeg, I can hear you rolling those ball-bearings around in your pocket as we speak.

Whoa, I never said he was abused by any family member! Where did THAT come from? My first hunch would be that the priest (maybe even a previous priest) had established an inappropriate relationship with him over time.

But the fact that you were there for him does not preclude that something bad did not happen. Like I said, he may have been able to talk about the priest because he felt enough control.

There is no gene accounting for that.

What about Gene Gene The Dancing Machine?

(Gong Show...)

(1970's TV...)

Oh, never mind.

Yes, let me state myself clearer: Six year olds COMMONLY do not have interest in girls.

I myself have had to listen about embarrassing stories about me and a certain girl I liked when I was five.

It's plain this is an emotional issue for you (as it should be!), and I shouldn't be poking around in it. I don't say that you're emotional to say that that in any way nullifies your objectivity, just to say that its not a good subject for me to be debating with you, since it is a rightfully upsetting subject. So, I'm going to shut up now.

Actually the kid is about 11 now - come to think of it.

Here's a tidbit about this kid, pretty sick actually. It happened about 8 months ago.

My wife's mother's family has 10 kids, they all have a number of children so the chances that there are some screws loose somewhere in this clan is pretty high.

Anyhow, she has another cousin, who is 18 years old and autistic. Nicest kid in the world. Anyway the afore mentioned 11yo cousin was "playing" with the 18 year old upstairs at an aunt's house (okay, it is a mansion, really).

To set the scene, there is an in-law apartment built into this house, a kitchen, bedroom and living room, the autistic kid was watching TV and the 11yo was in the bedroom. The mother of the autistic kid walked into the TV room to check on her son and heard the younger cousin saying "Billy, come in the bedroom and play with me in here (or something to that effect)" The mother walked in and found the kid naked in bed. Essentially he was displaying predatory characteristics at 11.

this kid comes from a pretty normal family, the father is a mailman and the mother is a teacher, he has an older brother who is quite the athlete and the father does everything to get this kid to "play ball" pun intended.

Whether or not this kid had something happen to him at an early age, I obviously can't say. I've known this kid since 1999 when i started dating my wife. We're both pretty sure he is going to end up gay, whether or not he ends up a predator who knows. But that was a troubling thing that happened. And I can venture a guess that this kid was wired this way.

Not saying all gays are, but it's fairly obvious that some are.

For years I have tried to tell my daughter the out of control and hilarious circus that was the Gong Show. Words fail me. I would love to find a season or two of it on DVD. That show was nothing but frivolity and frolic from day one.

You better believe that kid learned that from somewhere! You're probably smart enough to figure this out for yourself, but I'll say it anyway: Until you find out where that kid learned like that, you do NOT let any kids of yourse anywhere near him his close relatives or anyone else . You have a real pervert somewhere in that family, and I'd have LOOOONNGG, difficult consversations with my wife, if I were you, until I were good and certain who is trustworthy in that family.

...the father is a mailman...

Ah, ha! A clue! Would the term "Go Postal" happen to ring a bell?

Yeah, that show was a true crack up from beginning to end. The fights for the gong, Gene Gene The Dancing Machine, the BIG hook that came out after contestants...

Hopefully it will make one of the cable TV Land types of reruns.

MAWG is very defensive about his brother's disorder. I guess it's a natural reaction to defend ones family even in light of it's inherent dysfunction. There's been thee instances of homosexuality in my immediate family. I wathced it destroy my Aunt and her 4 teen age children when my "uncle" decided to follow a life of filth and degradation. My wife's father left her mother her and her young sister to be an active homosexual and is likely one of the very first to die from AIDS before they even knew what to name it. My sister in-law nearly died from heroine use because of this foul and repugnant behavior.

MAWG takes entirely the wrong attitude of accepting it as a legitimate alternative to that which is good, right and true and relies on anecdotal evidence to prove other wise. She lashes out because she must know deep down her opinion is flawed and lacks validity in any sense of real science. Pardon me if I don't sit back and accept someone with a paraphilic disorder that they always were that way, while dodging the "those who were always attracted to animals" (insert favorite paraphilic disorder) question. The logic doesn't follow.

For what it’s worth, the first group to be gonged off that show was the Mystic Knights of Oingo Boingo with lead singer Danny Elfman. I must come off as such a fanatic;^)

I disagree, there is no gene, they have admitted by 87% that they were sexually abused as children, the remaining 13 percent admitted to have been "introduced to homosexual activity at a very young age" they did not see it as abuse. Not every person who has been molested as a child grows up to be gay, the the overwhelming evidence is that most gay people, (especially men) have been abused. At some point.

I totally believe it is environmental and related to childhood experiences in one way or another.

I think anyone who pulls something as presumptuous, ignorant and insulting as this out of the blue is the one with some kind of emotional problem.

What did you do to help your brother turn away from his perversion? Nothing? I suggest you were either too lazy or too indifferent to help him (posty #114).....
If someone said that about me and my relationship with a disabled or disturbed sibling knowing as little as you about the specifics of our relationship and age, “defensive” would be the nicest you thing you could say about my reaction.

I mean you can find tons of animals that exhibit in same-sex behavior

Animals don't have cognitive thought and emotion. No ability to resist vile temptations. People are not the same as rutting animals!
