I'm truly sorry but I have absolutely no idea what's going on with my hosting service - I'll give it a week more and if it doesn't fix I'm changing server. I'll host the files on my computer occasionally for the time being.

Where's your /toggleOB script?

It was just a side-project, and was very broken so I didn't include it here.

Homoloveuality is not recognized as a mental illness in ICD-10 or DSM-IV. The World Health Organization also states that loveual orientation in itself is not a mental illness.
Furthermore, the illegality of homoloveuality has nothing to do with whether it's a mental illness or not. Most laws against it or same-love marriage have no secular basis anyway.

I realise and apologise. I cannot find the locations online and I don't have the text book from which I learnt these studies and facts with me right now. I am 100% sure these exist however and as soon as I find them I'll post them here. If anyone knows of these and would like to share them It'd be helpful as well.

Edit: I remember one of the Psychologists were Freud, but he's probably not the most reliable source.

Yes, because a different society doesn't change the fact that homoloveuality is not a mental illness.
Whether or not a different society considers it a mental illness doesn't change that it is not and is not classified as a mental illness.
Also, visit who's society?

Again, it's subjective depending on your belief or where you live. Not everyone agrees with you. I'm not bothered to look for where it is classified as a mental illness as I forgot the locations but here's a list of where it's not legal.

I don't quite think it's the word you were looking for...
I mean, is sickle-cell anemia abnormal? If you're not homozygous for the trait, it helps protect against malaria.

I don't study Biology. If it fits in the definition of abnormal then it is.

Is there even treatment for this thing? Last time I recalled all treatment was cancelled because success rates were extremely low (and as a result the people who claimed it succeeded were probably lying)

Frankly I find it ironic that you contributed to the 50 pages with yet another opinion. If you really don't want people to continue this discussion then I recommend you stop contributing to it here forth.

Also I'm sorry if I'm coming out a bit left-wing here. I never stated that I, myself, believe it's a mental disorder. I'm talking form a general viewpoint.

Edit: I used the term abnormal because that's what it is by definition. For example: Disabilities are also abnormal. I'm not trying to be insultive.

those places also being known as wrong

In our society, obviously. Visit their society and then come back and tell me if it's /wrong/ there.

Why should it be?
I don't see why you should categorize that which is not beneficial as abnormal, as humans have a lot of traits that don't benefit them, but they are completely normal.
I've also seen a study that shows that having the genes for homoloveuality, even if you aren't completely, can aid in reproduction in humans.
Other animals can be gay as well, or at least exhibit homoloveual behaviors.

Normal:
adjective
conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected.

Abnormal being the opposite, it seems like a correct term to use

You know, except that it isn't a mental illness.

Your statement is subjective. Read aforementioned.

How

the

forget?

It gives them a way to feel comfortable in identifying themselves over the world's largest social networking site. By catering I did not mean treating.

I study Psychology, and I know that there are still places that list homoloveuality as a mental disorder and there are many studies in Psychology which are for and against listing homoloveuality as a mental disorder which is why opinions can vary. I can say 10 > 1+1  > -10 which is correct, but is also correct with a larger range of values.

This actually sounds plausible so don't hold your breath.

Also this is a stupid brown townogy because gender identity =/= a mental disorder. The fact that you ARE of a specific identity can hint that you have a disorder.

While I agree i hope you understand that saying this on a forum mainly filled with "politically correct" people is just digging your own grave and you'll get flamed hard

Lol at you thinking a forum full with people I don't even know or care about is going to impact my life in any way :)

These are just my views, you either accept them or you don't. Most people's views on a topic like this are subjective anyway.

Any form of loveual preference that does not benefit the human race evolutionary is abnormal. That being said, we cannot just abolish everything that provides benefits to these people, it's basic human right.

Considering it is a mental illness (as other people have stated on this thread), me must ensure that we cater for these people's mental illnesses the same way we cater for other disabilities and mental illnesses in our society, Facebook's new gender options is a way to accomplish this.

Poor steam users can't because they don't have keys.

If one has purchased the game over steam but uses a pirated offline key for V20, does that count as theft?

Can you make the Slate Water - Night into a skybox?

I'm pretty sure a similar one already exists...

Edit: There's one in Demian's Pack.
