News Release – 28 February 2012

Godly Quacks’ Promotion of ‘Gay Cure’ Therapies and After Homophobia, What Next?

Kenilworth, 28 February 2012 — The UK gay humanist charity the Pink Triangle Trust (PTT) is pleased to announce the publication of the second issue of its online magazine The Pink Humanist.

The Pink Humanist is an LGBT magazine for atheists, humanists, sceptics and freethinkers and is the only one of its kind worldwide. It is edited by Barry Duke, a co-founder of the UK Gay and Lesbian Humanist Association (GALHA) in 1979 and a longstanding editor of The Freethinker, the voice of atheism in the UK since 1881.

In the latest issue journalist Andy Armitage writes about godly quacks persisting in promoting harmful and discredited ‘Gay Cure’ therapies. Other contributors include veteran gay activist and human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell who poses the question “After homophobia, what next?”, Brett Humphreys, a mathematician who writes a penetrating article about Alan Turing in the centenary year of this gay atheist code-breaker’s birth, and an Albanian gay activist who shows how this once ultra-homophobic communist country has taken a leap into the 21st century.
