Catholic nun tells students gay parents abuse kids, masturbation turns boys gay

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Students and parents at Charlotte Catholic High School are speaking out after they say a campus lecturer forcefully condemned homosexuality with outdated statistics, prejudiced stereotypes and other extremist claims.

More than 2,500 people have signed onto a Change.org petition asking the school to apologize for the lecture led last Friday by Sister Jane Dominic Laurel.

In a separate action, 64 students and 86 alumni signed onto a letter with similar requests, which was sent directly to school officials.

The letter and petition allege that Laurel made a variety of prejudiced comments about gay and lesbian people during her lecture on masculinity and femininity, including that masturbation or an absent father may make a boy more likely to be gay — two claims soundly rejected by mainstream medical professionals and associations.

You know... My first thought was to assure you that through personal experience, masturbating does not turn you gay... It's both true and an easy way to make a 'joke'... But that fact is, there is something seriously fucking evil about spreading this right wing lie that "gay parents abuse kids". Bullshit like this should have every one of us pretty pissed off and signing the petition:
