Would America classify it a mental illness again? What would happen to gay rights? Would it be okay to discriminate against gays if they choose to stay gay? Would sodomy become illegal?
Also keep in mind this is hypothetical, so don't get into anything about how it wouldn't be possible. |

Also keep in mind this is hypothetical, so don't get into anything about how it wouldn't be possible. | If you didn't mean to imply it was a disease, you subconciously did. If you went to any other websites other than KR you would know that, yes there are institutions that aim to 'correct' the homosexual individual. Lots of teenagers get sent to them by their parents. Although it isn't a form of 'cure' or whatever. China considered homosexuality a disease until recently, many countries do, as well as individuals. If there was like a tablet cure or whatever, the gay rights would still be around, they would be campaigning most likely for people to not be ashamed of the way they were born. Gays get discriminated against now, so I hardly see that changing. And sodomy is illegal in some states. |

| | | I would hope that nothing would happen, because the gay folks who have been brave enough to come out and be proud about who they are would just go "pffft I didn't do all that for nothin'" and keep on being gay.
I'd rather they found a cure for, like, homophobic southern baptist ladies or pedophiles |

It's kinda hard to imagine your sexuality changing though. I don't know what I'd be like as a straight guy. Probably pretty awful, and I'd probably get laid even less than I do now, purely because women seem to require even more effort and ego appeasement than gay dudes. I doubt I'd ever want to change enough to do it, knowing that I couldn't change back. |

It's not just about psychological conditioning; it is certainly within the realms of possibility that someone could be chemically changed to be attracted to a different sex. Shit, an organism can be chemically changed to be a different sex! The potential problem is more the psychological impact of it. The gay bomb study seemed to imply that suddenly turning gay would have a demoralising effect, and while I know America is a lot more homophobic than here, I doubt they would've based that on something as simple as "gay = bad". I'm pretty sure that if I suddenly started fancying girls rather than dudes, it would pretty much suck. It might be different if I knew it was going to happen, but probably not by much. |

| | | See, for much the same reason, I'd rather just be able to switch sex. There's a whole lot of straight dudes I want ploughing my beanfield, if you know what I am trying to say. |
