How freaking Crazy-Stupid is this bitch?

DEAR ABBY: I have reason to believe that a young man in my family may be gay. (He is 15.) I have been thinking a lot about it lately, and have been wondering if circumcision would cure it. What do you think?
—Grandmother in Missouri

Dear Missouri Grandmother: Homosexuality is not an illness, and therefore there is no need for a "cure." I predict that your family will be happier if you accept your relative exactly the way he is, love him, support him and stop trying to think of ways to cure him.

Does that dumb broad actually think circumcising her grandson will make him straight?!?

I'm at a loss for words to describe how stupid this person must be....

But I must give Dear Abby kudos for her response.

I'd be scared to think of what else she could come up with!! I wonder what she'd do if her granddaughter was a lesbian!

I'm so glad she's not my grandma!

As my grandmother is in Missouri, it wouldn't surprise me if she'd written this. Do I have any 15 year old cousins?

While I certainly don't understand her letter, I DO know that the older generations before us are not comfortable or understanding of homosexuality in the way that this generation thankfully is. The concept is so foreign to this women she actually believes there is a "cure" for something that in my eyes, isn't even a problem..and her "cure" is such a silly suggestion as that.

Ever since I was a little girl, I believed that if you were able to find love in this crazy and corrupt world that we live in, you were the most fortunate person in the world. What gender that person is or "supposedly" should be never even came into question to me. To have love, and be loved, is the most special feeling and act in the world. Man or woman, isn't even a factor to me.

When there is so much wrong, and so much heartbreak..how can people focus on who we choose to love as a problem? When it's so obviously a gift?

I don't think I'll ever understand people & why they are so hurtful, cruel and judgemental.

I wish more people could have your wisdom.

I appreciate the fact the old(er) folks are not comfortable discussing many things that today are generally held to be commonplace. (Hell, on I Love Lucy, they couldn't even say the word "pregnant"!) But what really slays me about this woman is her leap of "logic" that there is a connection between foreskin and The Gay.
