Blogmensgo May 24, 2012) The suspect already had but this time it’s a scientist to give confermadi what everyone suspected.

“For there is no cure homosexuality, why not a disease. The cure is rather for those who dislike gays, reject them and break out with verbal and physical attacks against them. ‘[...] Scientific studies have shown that the greater the aversion to homosexuals, the more latent and unconscious attraction to them. “The neuroscientist said Gianluigi Gessa in Cagliari, on the occasion of the day against homophobia.

He added: “If you live in such an environment very hostile and conservative it is difficult, sometimes impossible, to express yourself. This gives rise to neurosis and pathological states of unhappiness. Psychotherapy can reveal it and help these people live better and not express themselves in damaging ways right up against the object of their desire. ”

So what has to be cared for, that you can take action, “the hostile environment that is created around those who have a different sexual orientation and can not decide in peace to follow their natural impulses. That ‘s what creates unhappiness. ”

(Blogmensgo, May 24, 2012) The Constitutional Court of Colombia has finally approved on the 23 May 2012, the adoption of two Colombian children by an American homosexual. The adoption was compromised by the homosexuality of the adopter, whose custody was questioned since March 2011 on these grounds. This is the first time in Colombia that the final judgment allows adoption by a homosexual who is neither married nor PACS or in a couple.

U.S. journalist Chandler Burr, former researcher for the New York Times, has therefore legally adopted two young brothers aged 10 and 13 years, and he can also take them to the United States if he wishes.

The state agency responsible for adoptions, ICBF (Colombian Institute for Family Welfare), has since March 2011 refused to let the children join their adoptive father because of his homosexuality. In its judgment the Constitutional Court notes that the two children wanted to stay with their adoptive father and ICBF had decreed, without providing evidence or explanation, “that the applicant’s sexual orientation would have affected the outcome of the adoption process or impair the rights of children. ”

In December 2011, the family court mediator in Bogotá had already approved the adoption of two children by the American journalist. Colombia gives homosexual couples special rights regarding inheritance and social benefits, as well as heterosexual couples cohabiting. However, gay couples do not have the right to marry or adopt in Colombia.

ICBF has authorized 3,058 adoptions in 2010, 1,999 Colombian children adopted by foreigners.

(BlogMensGo, 22 May 2012) May 17, 2012, saw the death of the queen of disco.

Donna Summer, died in morning at her home in Florida after a long battle with lung cancer.

She began her career in the mid 70s and immediately imposed herself with a string of hits (Love To Love You Baby, Could It Be Magic, I Feel Love, Hot Stuff, among others), that gave her the title “queen of disco”, coming to sell in the course of her career over one hundred million records.

Much beloved by the gay community since the beginning in the mid-80s remaining embroiled in a dispute concerning a statement where she said that AIDS was God’s punishment for immoral behavior of homosexuals. Despite the official denial and the many interviews released in subsequent years to major U.S. gay magazines, the dispute continued.

In later years especially with her greatest hits, she occasionally returned to the studio – her last album, Crayons, in 2008 – but it did not produce a best seller.

Many may have noticed how her career was closely linked to the gay community, which has determined her success first and then defeat, and her death supervening in her international day dedicated to the fight against homophobia.
