    Yeah, but what do Carrie Prejean and Little Miss BH think about this? If the media is our moral compass, we must seek their opinions too! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Wow. I thought they would have removed this, since the American Psychological Association removed Homosexuality from the list of disorders in the early 70s (years after the enactment it seems).

    I guess dusty books in someone's closet get shoved in there and forgotten about for most part.

    the only cure for my homosexuality would be a valid, cashable check for 550million dollars. I would be celeibate for that.

    california... hold off blocking this ammendment until you get your budget in order and cure me with cash!!!

    Up until the DSM-IV (diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders), homosexuality was listed as a "paraphilia".

    Sounds like 1 of those laws that is put in place and forgotten about until someone stumbles across it decades later. Doubt there would be too much opposition to having it removed.

    Sadly it wouldn’t shock me if there were opposition; I agree the repeal would be more symbolic than anything.
