Recently, I have heard assertions and stereotypes that have disgusted me. Republicans have evaded questions by refusing to state the obvious about Mark Foley or his scandal. They have instead asserted the repugnant myth about homosexuals being more likely to molest.
These draconian stereotypes make me ill. Since when does gay mean you cant keep your hands to yourself? This scandal did not occur because Mark Foley is a homosexual. It occurred because he is a parasite. Heterosexuals have committed similar offenses with young women. Where are the stereotypes about fifty-year olds and their mid life crises?
Mark Foley’s episode is a result of a miserable human being acting reprehensibly. It is not a result of homosexuality.
