CNSNews.com, by Michael W. Chapman: The American Psychological Association’s (APA) decision to establish a “Consenual Non-monogamy Task Force” to promote “polyamory, open relationships” and “swinging” as normal sexual behavior was condemned by the Catholic League and the Ruth Institute, respectively, as a form of “mental breakdown” and another step in a long march “to normalize aberrant sexual behavior between adults.”
“The APA is not a scientific body—it is an activist organization in service to sexual libertinism,” said Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League. “The latest APA endorsement of polygamy and swinging (and my favorite, the all-inclusive ‘relationship anarchy’) was announced this month as part of the APA’s ‘Non-Monogamy Task Force’ program; it says it is promoting ‘inclusivity.'”
“It has not yet endorsed bestiality (which is no doubt a tribute to the animal rights folks), but who knows what lies beyond the bend?” said Donohue. “That may be next. Isn’t that what ‘inclusivity’ is all about?”
Ruth Institute President Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse said, “In plain English, ‘non-monogamy’ means multiple concurrent sexual partners, sometimes known as polyamory…. The APA’s position is that as long as sex is consensual, no judgement should be attached. In the #MeToo era, we have learned just how thin a reed ‘consent’ can be. This idea that individuals are entitled to whatever sex life they want, regardless of the consequences, is a basic belief of the Sexual Revolution.”
“In the past half-century, this has been a recipe for disaster, as statistics on divorce, out-of-wedlock births and fatherless families show,” said Morse.
Earlier this month, the American Psychological Association disclosed that it had launched the “Division 44 Consenual Non-monogamy Task Force.” The purpose of the task force is to promote awareness and inclusivity about consensual non-monogamy and diverse expressions of intimate relationships,” said the APA. “These include but are not limited to: people who practice polyamory, open relationships, swinging, relationship anarchy and other types of ethical non-monogamous relationships.”
The APA clarifies that its goal is to make sleeping round with multiple partners in a variety of situations, i.e., swinging, acceptable. “Finding love and/or sexual intimacy is a central part of most people’s life experience,” stated the APA. “However, the ability to engage in desired intimacy without social and medical stigmatization is not a liberty for all. This task force seeks to address the needs of people who practice consensual non-monogamy, including their intersecting marginalized identities.”
Back in 1973, the APA followed the lead of the American Psychiatric Association to declare that homosexuality was no longer a form of mental illness, although there was no new scientific evidence to back up that change. In 2009, the APA rejected the idea that homosexuals could alter their behavior through gay conversion therapy.
“Let’s face it, the APA leadership is actively pushing the radical gay agenda, the goal of which is to eradicate the cultural basis of Western civilization, namely the Judeo-Christian ethos,” said Donohue. “Their ideology is so entrenched that they are unable to see the psychological and social damage that is done to everyone, especially women and children, when a sexual ethic based on restraint is destroyed. And have they not learned of the body count attributed to lethal sex practices?”
“Since the 1970s, the APA helped to normalize aberrant sexual behavior between adults,” said Dr. Morse, Ph.D. “No one has stopped to ask about the long-term price children have paid, and that society continues to pay. Now it’s taking that one step further, by trying to get the pubic to accept multiple sexual partners. If they succeed, children and society will pay a steep price.”
Dr. Morse further asked, “What happens when little Johnny comes home and finds Mommy in bed with a strange man? If she explains to him that the relationship is ‘consensual,’ and Daddy knows about it, will that lessen the emotional trauma? What about the rights of children? Will their consent be sought too?”
Our Comment:
The APA refers to polyamory, swinging, and other similar types of relationships as “ethical.” We truly live in a time when evil is being promoted as good.
