Prejudice or pre-judging on the basis of incomplete or inaccurate data is a terrible thing. It’s been said that people are more likely to be down on what they are not up on. Not always, but often, the most astute and relevant concepts about the etiology of homosexuality have come from those who’ve taken the trip. Many of their ideas need to be reviewed and remembered.

As noted previously, I believe the psychodynamics of homosexuality have best been described in the small book entitled: Homosexuality: A New Christian Ethic by Elizabeth R. Moberly. It cannot be recommended too highly. Next is a memoire by William Aaron, entitled:  Straight: A Heterosexual Talks About His Homosexual Past. These two books should be first on the list for anyone interested in this topic.

Then, for broader understanding, four other books are suggested, two by gay writers and two by heterosexuals. I would recommend reading them in the following order: First, After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred Of Gays in the 90’s, By Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen. It has been referred to as the “bible” of the American gay revolution. Second, The Homosexualization of America, written by Dennis Altman. Third is Making Gay Okay: How Rationalizing Homosexual Behavior Is Changing Everything, by Robert R. Reilly. Fourth is Homosexuality and the Politics of Truth, by Jeffrey Satinover. There are always at least two sides to any issue.

My blog is to help gay men. I invite all interested to join in an exploration of what contributes to the evolution of this polarized and politicized issue.  Quite likely, key points gleaned will reveal conciliatory options available to all.
