2. I could refer

at least two former boyfriends to the "ex-straight" movement!

3. Cool, can we do some fundraising for this? Maybe start buying up

billboard space. I wanna be interviewed on CNN (hopefully Anderson will call!) We can start are own schools where straights can go to be cured (please, please put me in charge of college recruitment - I've been trying to specialize in that for years, ok, decades)

We can even have a rating system with a lapel button you can wear "I was straighter than you!"

Points awarded for each child you created, extra credit for each additional ex wife or husband you went through.

I was at least 92 on the straight scale, I had more straightness to overcome than most of you. I should get more of the funds raised based on that, I think.

4. I can get into it.....I dated a GIRL in high school and two GIRLS.....

in college. Even though there was no sex, I did get to second base a few times. Surely thats enough to make me an "ex-straight"

There actually is a website on the subject of "ex-straights"...

6. Counterproductive I think.

While it could be amusing. I think the RW will just use it to reinforce their perception that being gay or straight is a choice.

9. Since they think it is a choice anyway....

Why not set up recruiting booths? I can see the signs now: "Register to win a free toaster oven!"

7. Can an ex-straight be elected president of gaynation?

Or only naturalized citizens.

8. In a sense, I am ex-straight.

I thought I was straight because "everyone" was, before I came out to myself.
