...humor, which swings between a defensive mockery of the outside world and a self-hating scorn for the gay one. Recent research projects at the Indiana sex research institute and elsewhere have sought out homosexuals who are not troubled enough to come to psychiatrists and social workers and have found them no worse adjusted than many heterosexuals. Nonetheless, when 300 New York homosexuals were polled several years ago, only 2% said that they would want a son of theirs to be a homosexual. Homophile activists contend that there would be more happy homosexuals if society were more compassionate; still...
...group of researchers headed by Psychoanalyst Irving Bieber observed that a large number of homosexuals came from families where the father was either hostile, aloof or ineffectual and where the mother was close-binding and inappropriately intimate (CBI in scientific jargon).

Ruling that the name would mislead the petitioner's future students, the judge said that other black Americans are teaching African culture "without resort to such subterfuge as changing their patronymics." Besides, he went on, Middleton is "a fine American name." Despite the decision, the future teacher is determined to get court approval for becoming Kikuga Nairobi Kikugis. He hopes to find a more receptive judge than Irving Smith-whose immigrant forebears' name was changed when they came from Poland...
