Dan Good info to be sure..
It seems always Straight people make these assumptions about "other sexual
preferences?"
Being an openly gay certified constellation facilitator of 6 years. I've
helped many "humans" with their problems sexual or otherwise. In my first
book God says, Heal, I wrote a Chapter on this very subject called
"Homosexuality Explained". I'll be happy to send a gay philosophical
perspective along to any who would like it.I tried to be straight through
numerous therapies for many years before giving into my fate and destiny of
living life as a Homosexual/Gay man. Systemically, there were many secret
ones in my system that never got to live their dream honestly. I am their
Dream come true to be who I am (biologically) and be open, honest, loving
and sincere. The systemic suffering I see from the guilt, loveless marriages
and institutionalized homophobia based on religious distortions and
ignorance is astounding. Bert as I asked him directly at my first workshop
with him also called it a Special Fate. In my own Constellation work I was
clearly representing my fathers first wife among others in my system such as
my bachelor great uncle hint, hint etc. I hope some of these details bring
other points of view to light.
There are a small number of lesbian and gay facilitators in our community. I
won't "out" any of them. We have much to offer in our Constellation Talk
community of wonderful people.

PS On a historical note many American Indian/First Peoples treasured their
gay/lesbian/transgendered members (beardaches) of their tribes in the
highest esteem as healers, confidants, priests (if we must). They embodied
the masculine and feminine and were revered as closer to the Great
Spirit/creator more than a limited mere mortal heterosexual could ever be.
Food for Spiritual thought, as they were never touched by the organized,
repressive religious edicts coming from Europe condemning and killing
everything from their holier than thou approach to life.

Subject: [ConstellationTalk] Two Books About Family Constellations and
Homosexuality
In doing my research, I came across an exchange about Hellinger, Family
Constellations, and homosexuality in two books.
The first is "Coming out Straight" by Richard Cohen. The author claims that
being gay results from the pathological condition Same-Sex Adfective
Disorder. He uses Hellinger's statements (e.g. pp. 70-74 "Love's Hidden
Symmetry") to buttress his argument.
The second is a book written in rebuttal, "Anything But Straight: Unmasking
the Scandals and Lies Behind the Ex-Gay Myth," by Wayne Besen. He writes:
"Drawing from the work of Bert Hellinger, Cohen proposes that a gay man can
experience recovery by examining his family structure."
I wrote Wayne Besen's via his website:
"Dear Wayne - I was doing an Amazon search for "Bert Hellinger" and came
across your mention of him in Anything But Straight.
I feel compelled to write you to say that Bert Hellinger and the worldwide
community of Family Constellation facilitators would strongly repudiate
Richard Cohen's claim that homosexuality is a pathology that can be cured by
Family Constellations.
I will spare you the details here, but Richard Cohen's claims are an
unfortunate distortion. I regret that your book suggests Constellation work
supports his claims. The opposite is true."
Am I correctly representing the majority of Constellation facilitators?
