A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality

by Joseph Nicolosi, Linda Ames Nicolosi

Homosexuality: is it learned, biological or both?

The answer to this question deeply concerns parents. They want to know how they can best raise their children. A common belief today is that nothing can be done to foster the development of healthy heterosexual orientation in children. But the clinical experience and professional research of Dr. Nicolosi and others indicates otherwise.

In this groundbreaking book Joseph and Linda Ames Nicolosi uncover the most significant factors that contribute to a child's healthy sense of self as male or female. Listening to moving recollections from ex-homosexual men and women who describe what was missing in their own childhoods, the Nicolosis provide clear insight for identifying potential developmental roadblocks and give practical advice to parents for helping their children securely identify with their gender.

Replete with personal stories from parents, children and ex-homosexual strugglers, offers compassion and hope for all those parents who seek to lay a foundation for a healthy heterosexual identity in their children.

You are so right, Joseph Nicolosi! Boys shouldn't play with dolls or play dress up if they want to be straight! They should only do incredibly heterosexual things, like play sports!

Parents should be far more concerned with making sure their children don't grow up to become homophobes instead!!!

Because titling it 'A Parent's Guide to making their children commit suicide' is too harsh


Even if you don't agree with homosexuality, your love for your child should over come that.


Do not stand before me and say that God does not approve of homosexuals. They were born gay, which means God made them that way. To say that God disapproves of that which He Himself made is to say that God is not perfect. If God is not perfect, then he is not God.

god, I hate stupid people. I hate it even more when they write books.

I told her, "Mom, you saw me play with Barbie dolls. You allowed me to use makeup and to fix my hair in front of the mirror for hours. My brothers never did any of this. Why didn't you stop me? What were you thinking?"



well, clearly the reason why I'm attracted to both genders is because I played with Barbies and Lego's as a kid, amirite?

Furthermore, civilization has shown us that the natural human family (father, mother and children), with all its faults, is the best possible environment for the nurturing of future generations.

God, that is so right. Take those heathens Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka, for example. LOOK AT THESE SINNERS.



that baby is clearly crying out in fear. don't these two know what they're doing to their children? how anyone can look at this and think that it's the most adorable damn thing on earth is beyond me.

As a clinical psychologist who has treated hundreds of dissastisfied homosexual men--

OH MY GOD HOW ARE YOU A PRACTICING PSYCHOLOGISTS WHO WOULD COME TO YOU.



wait, wait, wait. this is my favorite line, right here.

As one prominent psychoanalyst, Dr. Charles Socarides, says, "Nowhere do parents say, 'It makes no difference to me if my child is homosexual or heterosexual.'"



lol that's really funny because when I came out as pansexual to my mom she barely batted an eyelash. I believe her exact words were, "I would rather you be with a girl that treats you right than a douchebag guy who treats you like shit." so Mr. Socarides, you are full of shit.

I'm gonna end this with the saddest/most hilarious quote from the chapter called "A Mother's Journal."

I hate Valentine's day, Cinderella and the color pink. I dread them and fear that they could ruin my son.



you heard it here, folks. DISNEY MOVIES AND THE COLOR PINK WILL TURN YOUR SON GAY. be sure to have them watch manly man things like wrestling and save all the girly shit for your daughters. as it should be.

now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go text my girlfriend and tell her how much I love her. then I'm gonna go hug my mother and thank her for never being so goddamn ignorant, close-minded, or stupid.



(sidenote: my older brother played dolls and watched Disney movies with me and he's straight as a pencil. further proof that the guy who wrote this book is a complete moron.)

nicolosi has been discredited for his barbarism all over the internet, up to and including by one stephen fry, who visited him at his offices to ask him, for instance, why finding patients of his who have been 'cured' of their homosexuality is so difficult, when finding patients who 'did not respond to treatment' is so easy.

in other news, fundamentalists discover 'hungary' is a noun and onanism has no effect on presidential elections whatsoever.

No, I have not read this book and not planning on doing so. The title alone speaks volumes. It's an insult to me and everything I believe in.
This is my first 1-star rating for the book I haven't read and not planning on reading, but for some weird reason it feels soooo good.

According to GR I'm not allowed to say anything about the author any longer, only about the book. I'm in a pickle here, I haven't read the book, but there is a lot I want to say about the "author", who, in my opinion, is ignorant and hatred spreading douche.

That's what I'm going to do, I'm going to send him a lot of love and kisses and wish him to get well soon.

It’s been a very long time since my “syphilis of literature” shelf got a new addition to it. The other horrible books on it were getting lonely.

Vile and disgusting.

Sadly, unlike syphilis, bigotry and intolerance and the overall condition of being a shitty person cannot be cured by penicillin.

[Manny]

A very disappointing addition to the Parent's Guide series. Long-time fans will look back nostalgically to Sixtus IV's Preventing Heresy, Vladimir Ilyich Lenin's Preventing Bourgeois Thinking, and Joseph Goebbels's Preventing Jewishness.

[Lisa Henry · Rating 1 out of 5]

I will not read this book for personal reasons. However, I will thoroughly review the portion I have read: the title.

The title seems to indicate that homosexuality, as something that should be prevented, is negative and something that parents ought to be concerned about, like your child riding their bike off a cliff, or catching rabies from a dog bite.

Reckless bike stunts and rabid dogs are certainly something I would warn my children to avoid. However, I will not read this book because not only don't I believe that homosexuality is something that can be prevented, I also see no need to prevent it.

Is this shelf okay, GR?
Oh, I also gave it a star so this isn't an empty review. Because that would be unfair, right?

Oh, hell no.

I'm frankly horrified that there are people who have read this book and believe that it offers anything other than bigotry and hate.

1. Sexual orientation is in not correlated with gender identity

2. Neither sexual orientation nor gender identity can be caused, nor prevented, they can only be accepted or denied

3. Parents who cannot accept their children for who they are should not have children

4. Sexual orientation is not correlated with having a kind, generous, and loving relationship, and it certainly isn't modeled by parents who think they can "fix" their children.

Why the fuck does this shit exist???
If you want anything blatantly heteronormative and influential for children, force them to watch a Disney movie. That would be forcing heterosexual norms on them and instilling internal homophobia. In fact, it already is! We don't need flaming shit like this book to teach parents how to shove their kids off bridges.
People need to get over the idea that seeing queer people in books or on screen will influence their children to be queer. No, Deborah. I spent my entire fucking childhood reading books and watching animated bullshit about pretty pink princesses falling in love with toxic masculine blue prince assholes. In other words, straight bullshit.
And guess what? I am still ✨queer✨. And nothing about the homophobic, ignorant society I grew up in has influenced me to be that way. Nothing has prevented me from being a person. I fucking exist, and you can deal with it. You cannot prevent my existence, unless you kill me. Which has actually happened to other queer people. So fuck you for thinking that the way you get pregnant is going to change how your kid will turn out.

I AM HERE AND FUCKING QUEER AND NONE OF YOUR BULLSHIT IS GOING TO CHANGE THAT.

[Sandra · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book is POISON!!
It reads like a parents guide to child abuse, in which moms and dads are told to never let their children play with gender-inappropriate toys, never let them dress any which way they want or express themselves as individuals. If in doubt, surely you can beat the homo out of your kid, right?

It's books like this one that perpetuate the myth of 'healing' or 'redirecting' homosexuality. People do not choose to be LGBTQ. Nobody with even a lick of sense would choose to be persecuted, harassed and bullied simply for who they love. And a book that tells a parent otherwise, by suggesting it's their fault their kid turns out LGBTQ, is a crappy book. Way to induce the guilt trips, crappy, assholish book.

It is also utterly false to equate sexuality with gender identity. Trust me, gay men know they're men. Gay men identify as male. They are sexually attracted to other men, who also know full well that they're men.

This is the kind of book you're allowed to burn.

[Teresa · Rating 1 out of 5]

I think they named this book "A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality", because "A Parent's Guide to Causing Your Homosexual Child to Kill H/herself" would seem too creepy.

As for Nicolosi: I would love to say two certain words to you that have a finger gesture to go with it.

And this one is for every homosexual, bisexual, and transexual out there: You ARE beautiful and amazing. And don't you ever, EVER let anyone tell you you're not.

[Jyanx]

Hateful, dangerous, and deadly nonsense. My heart breaks for children whose parents buy into this trash.

[Katrina · Rating 1 out of 5]

I have never had such a visceral, negative reaction to a book. I wanted to cry before I'd even opened it.

This is just plain horrifying.

This book attempts to justify prejudice and discrimination. It encourages closed-mindedness and intolerance. The institution this book came from has to be stopped.

"Reparative therapy" for homosexuality has never been shown to work empirically, despite all of the fancy studies this book cites. Some points I am forced to agree with - we have not yet proven that sexual orientation is 100% caused by genetics. But the way this information is twisted into a justification of trying to "rehabilitate" a "hopeless" situation makes me sick. Violently sick.

Please do not take this book seriously. It fosters hatred. I hope this man is religious, so that when I say I sincerely hope he goes to hell, it will actually mean something to him.

[Lyla · Rating 1 out of 5]

A Parents Guide to Preventing Homosexuality is essentially saying: A Parents Guide to Preventing a Child’s Love.

While homosexuality, for centuries, has been something ridiculed, bullied, and stigmatized, many have liked to believe that we are reaching a point where love prevails above hate. But unfortunately, it seems that the race is still on. To the dismay of many, people in every crevice of the planet are still under the cruel and burning fire of hate. Hate that journeys past adults, but onto children. It’s a weapon wielded both carefully and thoughtlessly. At some point, you hold little regard for who it is you’re hurting with your hatred, you hold no regard for how it may spread through your entire being and swallow you whole. Eventually, you become nothing more than the hate you hold, and that—is a tragedy.

I find myself in mourning. I mourn the simple yet wishful idea that love can simply exist as it is, without constantly battling hatred and prejudice. I mourn the imaginary world in which a child picks up a toy that their eyes were drawn to, and their parents don’t punish them for choosing the wrong one. I am in deep grieving for the people who fall asleep at night dreaming of a place where they can smile lovingly at their partner, no longer afraid of who’s watching. I mourn, everyday, the people who will live without love solely because they know that their own blood would shun them for feeling it.

I have terrible news for the anti-gays, and wonderful news for the gays that may be reading this. Homosexual love is no different from heterosexual love. It’s quite simple, but hardly understood. Love resides within us all, in the same way, the same places. It never falters, never fades, but sometimes it grows quiet. Other times it’s loud, it demands, it celebrates. It can silently resign and it can relentlessly fight. Love stirs and flows and it occurs in every single moment. We feel it for the small, we feel it for the big, we simply feel it. And no matter who you are, you will probably meet at least one person who wishes to stifle your love because they struggle with their own. But, love? It can’t be stifled. Not truly, not really. Every attempt you make to erase it, eradicate it, stifle it, and kill it, will be met with one result. Failure.

The author very clearly struggles with love. The idea of loving someone who is different from himself is deeply scary. In a way, I can empathize with this. The fear some people must have for those who do not think the same way, it must be suffocating. Surviving under one shared belief of love when love is meant to be both individual and collective. It cannot be right or wrong, it can only be, and whether your love is right for you is your idea and your belief alone. It’s not one to be shoved down another’s throat. Another persons love is not YOURS to attempt to destroy.

This books starts with the pressing matter of people feeling dissatisfied with their sexuality. They feel uncomfortable, stuck, disgusted. I can tell you now, in full confidence, that it is NOT because gender roles weren’t taught and defined to these children. Rather, it’s because they exist. It’s because they’ve watched as men like Joseph have promoted these gender roles as a necessity. We do not need these roles to survive. We do not need these roles to thrive. They exist because they benefited very specific individuals and purposefully harmed others. These men feel dissatisfied with their sexuality because they were taught to be unhappy with it, taught that they should hate it just as others do. You may critique the idea that people should have the freedom to be themselves without concern for the societal norms and values, but by that logic you are striking down uniqueness and individuality. You will never think the same way as the person beside you, never look the same, feel the same, not truly. Difference can be found in each and every one of us, right beside our strongest similarities. Somehow, someway, we have managed to take something that links us together, love, and twist it into something that divides us. ”They speak as if our anatomy was in no way our destiny.” Correct. Your anatomy is not your destiny, it is a part of who you are, but it is not by any means your destiny. Perhaps these men were uncomfortable with their sexuality because of this world’s people and their own very loud discomfort. Maybe, just maybe, these hateful thoughts for themself were not planted on their own. Maybe it was you. Maybe it was the people they looked up to, a random post on the internet, a celebrities speech. Stop planting your man-made seeds of hate and then calling it “natural” once it grows.

I want to divert people to another book. One that may truly impact parents struggling with this topic.

Prayers for Bobby by Leroy F. Aarons

This is a book about love. A parent’s hate for homosexuality being misinterpreted as love. Prayers for Bobby is about a woman who weaponizes her religion and eventually drives her own son (yes, gay.) to his devastating death. Only after does she finally realize, his love was not a sin. His love was not wrong. His love was just that, love. The problem was not Bobby and who his heart beat for, but rather—the problem was ignorance and the way it resides in us. The monster is not homosexuality, the monster is hatred and how it pierces our hearts and drains us of our love.

“I am here today because I have learned in the most painful way possible that ignorance, hatred, bigotry, and prejudice lead to violence and tragedy.... And I have learned that love, honesty, support, and acceptance... lead to health, wholeness, and self-esteem for our children.”

It is our choice, as people, how we treat other people. Do we meet them with disgust? Anger? Hatred? Or do we meet them with the love that lives inside of us all, no matter how deep? It’s a choice we get to make everyday, a stepping stone to a happier world that we can either ignore or take.

"Mary's self-discovery that her son had had nothing to repent, that he had been untainted by sin from the start, was at once a huge relief and a terrible indictment. It enabled her to believe, at last, that Bobby was not eternally damned but was instead a happy and free spirit enjoying the benefits of a blissful afterlife somewhere in the firmament. On the other hand, Mary for the first time grasped the full implication of what had transpired during those final years. There was no getting away from it: her well-meaning campaign to save her son had merely helped drive him to his death.”

“If no one had ever challenged religious authority there would be no democracy, no public schools, women's rights, pursuit of science, medicine, abolition of slavery, and no laws against child abuse.”

When the sun leaves the sky and I’m left with only darkness, when the leaves stop rustling and I am left with only silence, when the wind stops blowing and I’m left with only stillness, I have but one question when everything is stripped away and I’m left with merely my own thoughts. If this world is truly nothing without the love we all hold, why are we so eager to rid each other of it?

How many hearts will we break? How many lives will we take? How many children will we lead astray? How many adults will we leave in loneliness and despair for their entire lives? When will we stop?

I want to share the most random bundle of quotes with you all. Quotes that speak to me, and may speak to you, but should HOPEFULLY speak to everyone. Some from songs, from books, from movies. Words that capture our hearts and seep into them, nurturing the love that thrives within us.

”Love was the law and religion was taught, I’m not bought, I feel when we argue our skin starts to rot.”
-Gigi Perez

”Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.”
-Buddha

"Hate is too great a burden to bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated."
-Martin Luther King Jr.

"Holding hate in your heart is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die."

"We hate some persons because we do not know them; and will not know them because we hate them.”
-Charles Caleb Colton

“Hate, it has caused a lot of problems in this world, but it has not solved one yet.
-Maya Angelou

”The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.”
-Audrey Hepburn

”Where there is love, there is life.
-Gandhi

"Love is a force of nature. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused."

[Plainbrownwrapper · Rating 1 out of 5]

Here's just a few facts about NARTH -- National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality -- which Mr. Nicolosi cofounded:

1. NARTH's founders believed that homosexuality was caused by “smothering mothers and abdicating fathers.” -- even though homosexuals are born into ALL types of homes

2. They are virulently homophobic -- Founder Socarides called homosexuality "a purple menace that is threatening the proper design of gender distinctions and society”.

Founder Nicolosi was previously a spokesman for Focus on the Family. He has called homosexuality "perverse and, in fact, unnatural". He has also claimed that homosexuals want to normalize pedophilia and spread AIDS.

No bothering with scientific objectivity for these guys, nosirreebob!

4. Former member Wayne Throckmorton confirms the group's bias, saying: "“When it comes to science, you can’t let your religious views color what is. And I think NARTH does that all the time".

5. NARTH's conferences have featured such luminaries as Scott Lively (the pastor who claimed that gays orchestrated the holocaust, who cowrote The Pink Swastika, who then went on to actively work to get the anti-gay laws passed in Uganda, and who has also taken credit for the anti-gay laws in Russia) and Paul Cameron (who was thrown out of both the APA and the ASA for fiddling with research data).

6. Board member George Rekers was caught in 2010 with a rentboy he'd taken on vacation with him. He claimed the rentboy was there to carry his luggage.

7. In 2007, another NARTH member and advisor wrote an essay on their website in **support of slavery**. It said of slaves, in part: "Life (in Africa) was savage ... and those brought to America, and other countries, were in many ways better off."

8. Their research and claims of treatment success have been debunked many times in many different venues.

9. They have had their 501(c)3 status revoked by the IRS.

10. They are no longer accredited within the state of California.
