European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - June 26, 1991, Darmstadt, Hesse Wednesday june 26. 1sj91 r pm Ann Landers dear Ann Landers i have noticed that Over the years you have discussed the topic of homosexuality with an open mind i also know that Many of your readers Are sick and tired of hearing about discrimination . A a it i too am fed up. With listening to them whine about the prejudice Quot they face because of their sexual preference. Before you Call me a Homo Phobe let me Tell you that i am Gay. I am writing to offer a Little advice to the Young person who is contemplating coming out of the biggest mistake i Ever made was to Tell my parents 1 am a homosexual. They accepted it at first or pretended to but As time went on my confession caused so much trouble that i wish i had left Well enough alone. A. I am absolutely convinced that parents have a sixth sense about their child. They know the truth without having it spelled out for them. When they Are said Denly confronted with deeply disturbing information they done to want to Deal with it is sure to Lead to trouble they Are then forced to accept that child and what he or she really is which must condone homosexual behaviour. That is when the trouble begins. A a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a and stripes today a crossword dear Abby dear Abby my husband and i adopted a Beautiful Little boy two years ago. He was 2 years old when we got him. We waited for 2vi years to get him and when the Agency called us to say we could conic and get him i was so thrilled 1 shared the Good news with my co workers. 1 worked in an office with 13 other women.
