(We got the notice on the door last week. Maybe if we hold out a little while longer, they'll buy me a pony!)

Re: Well Damn
Date: 2002-03-12 06:26 pm (UTC)?Professional organizations representing more than 477,000 health and mental health professionals have all taken the position that homosexuality is not a mental disorder and thus there is not need for a ?cure?? (American Academy of Pediatrics et al., 1999, p. 5). In the National Association of Social Workers? Code of Ethics, social workers are professionally bound not only to refrain from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, but also to achieve cultural competency in the area of sexual orientation (in Poulin, 2000). In its Policy Statement on Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Issues, the NASW further discourages social workers from encouraging clients to change their sexual orientation through interdisciplinary referrals or from purporting to help them do so themselves (1996). Similarly, Morrow (in Anderson, 2000) states that an integral part of social work practice with queer adolescents is ?active advocacy and intervention? (p. 372).
Ugh. SO TIRED.

Date: 2002-03-13 04:16 am (UTC)The APA took homosexuality out of the DSM in 1973. Woot!
I'll have to look around for the site in my (ha ha) free time. :) Thanks!

Re: Well Damn
Date: 2002-03-13 07:21 am (UTC)Gypsies do not exist as a group in the USA, therefore the term "gypped" has been taken out of its original context and given a meaning unrelated to its origin. Many words we use today have origins that we're unaware of.
Also, when you travel to Europe, the first thing any of the travel books tell you is to keep your valuables tight to you, because the gypsy kids are excellent pickpocketers and they WILL get into your pockets and get your wallet without you even noticing. If they don't want people picking up derogative terms towards them MAYBE they should quit stealing from everyone!
