HATEFUL - 'Ex-Gay' Flyer Sent Home To Maryland Students
Parents of students attending Albert Einstein High School in Montgomery County, Md. are upset after some high schoolers were sent home with flyers claiming nobody is "born gay," My Fox DC reports.
The flyer, which came from a group called Parents And Friends Of Ex-Gays And Gays (PFOX), states that everyone can choose their own sexuality.
Social worker Karen Yount-Merrell told My Fox DC she was outraged when her son brought the flyer home from school.
"I don't like it," Yount-Merrell told the station. "Everything in this flyer makes it sound like the goal is to be (an) EX-gay, (or an EX)-lesbian. It is not embracing of a different orientation. It reiterates a societal view that there's something 'wrong' with you, if you're not in the norm. If you aren't heterosexual."
