PFOX removed the materials that the school counselors were offended by. A person is only gay if he identifies as gay. At least this is my belief. I make a distinction between experiences of same sex attraction and being gay.

Advocating the safety of all children…? That’s some good spin you have there. So a man with same-sex attraction is only a homosexual if he labels himself a homosexual. Is this the kind of counseling that you give? You have a lot of definitions to change in dictionaries before your new definition is accepted. Do you have am money back guarantee on your counseling? Do you know what ethics are? Are you simply in this for name recognition or are you profiteering? Do you realize that the position of PFOX is as credible as Intelligent Design is. Its only to confuse the issue and attempt to slow down the progress of gays achieving a status as non-outcasts in society.

No voodoo brochures on site; just brochures advocating the safety of all children and caution in engaging in sex. Real radical stuff. Besides the school counselors knew they were coming and were bullied by some vocal members on site.

Or that any material does not speak of homosexuality in a negative way.
