Marvin Bloom Hot & Bothered

Marvin Bloom returned safe and sound to the secure shores of the USA and soon after e-mailed a video file he wanted me to upload for him. I was sick with a stomach virus for a few days, so got delayed, and then I received a flurry of frantic e-mails from Marvin. I tried to explain that I was ill and most likely under attack by the devil (something that I thought he would appreciate), but he claimed that Satan won't mess with me since, like Joe G., I am backslidden. He then accused me of kissing too many Swedish men. As if I were that lucky.

In this video Marvin recounts yet another bizarre incident that occurred during his brief stay in Sweden. I was off having a normal fika with a new friend when Noa and Alex lured Marvin into a sauna with a pack of other hot naked Swedes. Needless to say this sorely tested Marvin's ex-gay convictions.

Wait, wait, you were talking about your penis with a bunch of hot, Swedish men while you were all naked, but you're worried about the bathroom stalls in Amsterdam Airport?

O_o

I don't really know what to say to that.

Marvin, I'm sure the real reason people were staring at your penis was because it was not pointed down towards the floor...

Omigod - "unbidden". Ha!

I'm surprised that you didn't explain that, like our Lord and Savior, you are circumcised - unlike all of those Swedish men who lost their faith so long ago...

If you ever want to show how God has surely blessed you "down there", you can always upload a video of it on one of those Sex-Tube sites.

Did you wear the wig and sun glasses during the fika? I still think your look has a certain mod, heroin chic to it.

Funny you should mention that Marvin, because I've always wondered why the ex-gay milieu isn't more interested in the issue of circumcision.

I mean, think about it. If the root cause of gayness is a perceived deficit in the area of masculine characteristics, wouldn't you have a vested interest in preserving foreskins?

In other words, according to the ex-gay worldview, isn't there a risk that a boy without a foreskin would look at his buddy who has a foreskin and say "Oh, I don't have one of those. I'm not manly enough. I'm going to seek out this deficit in my manliness through sex with other men."?

I'm honestly curious about why this discussion doesn't happen in ex-gay circles.

Oh, and about Larry Craig. That was a little catty, Marvin. I think you might be under the influence of an unclean spirit of cattiness. I'll light a candle for you, but it's going to have to wait until Sunday. No way can I make it to a weekday mass the way this week is going.

Naked Swedish men in a sauna?

A live Jewish penis?

I think I'm under attack from unbidden images.

My Gay Husband--A Spouse Speaks Out

The other day I received the following e-mail from Susanne, a woman who found out her some years ago that her husband has same-sex attractions. I felt so moved by her words that I asked her permission to share them with you on the blog. I (recently) saw your Doin Time... and I was the one who asked about your wife during the discussion period that followed. I just read your thoughts on What About the Spouse ....and I can say, most women who find out their husbands are gay feel ALL of those things you wondered about....some in more degrees than others... When my husband was dragged out of the closet because of his irreverent, immoral, and amoral behavior that our, then, 14 and 16 year old sons had to find on our home computer, I went into the closet. I didn't know what to pray for.... Do I pray that this will go away? Do I pray that he could go back to the way things were in our family before we knew about him,? Do I pray that I could go back to the way things were? After all ,...

The False Image of LIA

John Smid and me-Graduation 1998 (above) & John Smid today (left) By now many have heard that Tennessee's Department of Mental Health & Developmental Disabilities determined that the "ex-gay" program, Love in Action, is operating two “unlicensed mental health supportive living facilities”. LIA has until Friday, September 23 to respond. If LIA statements in Eartha Jane Melzer's article are indicative to how the "change" program might respond, we may see LIA change right before our eyes from a clinical mental health compound into a house of praise and worship. Gerard Wellman, business administrator for Love in Action, and a former Love in Action client, said Sept. 13 that the organization has been in contact with the state but would not comment further. “As a church, we operate under a different set of rules,” Wellman said. Curious, and what rules might these be? What is even more curious is that according to LIA's site only one staff member ...

Puzzled

Last night I performed Transfigurations-Transgressing Gender in the Bible at Imago Dei Metropolitan Community Church in Glen Mills, PA (about 15 miles outside of Philly). I had a diverse audience of about 45 people -- college students, Quakers, straight, bi, trans and lesbian, young and old. I took my time with the piece maintaining a gentle meditative pace. For the ending when I reveal the identity of the narrator, I had instructed the light tech to dim the lights. Then as the closing music swelled, I asked her to raise the lights to their brigthest intensity. With the music playing, I exited. Always (up until last night) at this point the audience applauds, I wait 5 seconds then come out to take a bow. Last night I exited and then nothing. No one clapped. They sat quietly as the music played. I stood back stage puzzled, baffled. Now what do I do? Wait? Go out anyway? And I wondered for a moment, Did they hate it? Did I confuse them? Offend them? Bore them into a coma? After what ...
