I thought we had seen the end of this kind of thing....!It's one thing for an adult to choose this treatment quite another for it to be used on a child!

People will tell you where they've gone
They'll tell you where to go
But till you get there yourself you never really know
Where some have found their paradise
Other's just come to harm

I am greatly disturbed by this, and angered as well. What the fuck is wrong with people?...

my stomach did a backflip when I read this. I see the issue was being raised in Austrailia. I am going to inquire of some of my friends who are proff. of Phsychiatry and Phycology and see how prevelant this is in the US.


If you stand for Freedom, but you wont stand for war, then you dont stand for anything worth fighting for.
