Bullies! Those awful people who abuse and manipulate you. What makes a person want to be like that? What gives them power? What happens when they grow up?
Not only are a lot of young queer people on the receiving end of this type of abuse, but many of them are also the ones who dish it out. Sometimes it seems the closet cases are the ones that are the most abusive.
Could you be a bully and not know it? Or are you on the receiving end? You might be, but how would you know? Well, along with Jason McVicker, Director of Mental Health Services for the Center on Halsted, we’ll tell you if you are on today’s show.
We’ve got our gay therapist- Jason McVickers from the center on Halsted in Chicago talking about ways you can spot abusive people in your life, and how to start dealing with them head on.
The Chicago Public school system’s proposal of a high school for GLBT teens has everybody up in arms! Should we create a sanctuary for out gay youth or work on educating the entire Chicago Public school district?
Are you smarter than a fifth grader? Republican V.P. Candidate Sarah Palin sure doesn’t seem like it. A leaked video of the now infamous interview with Katie Couric reveals that the Alaskan governor and former beauty pageant contestant couldn’t pass a high school civics course. She knows nothing about the U.S. Supreme court.
Is Britney’s sex tape for real or just a desperate attempt for publicity?
We wish Jason luck as he is leaving the Center next week to work with children at Blue Gargoyle, a mental health facility on in Hyde Park.
Your broken beer bottle in the fight for gay rights- Feast of Fools.
