She definitely overreached herself by making a moral judgment on a not-sufficiently-explored branch of psychology. In fact, there are reports of her saying in private conversations within a decade of the quote in question that they didn't know enough about the development of homosexuality in a person's psychology to say that it would have to involve immorality.

I still don't understand what homosexuality has to do with oatmeal.

The times now are dictating 'multiculturalism' and 'tolerance'. The first says your culture is no better than others. The second demands submission. I'd trade 1950's popular culture (however brazenly biased) to this "Let everyone walk all over you-be afraid above all else" crap that's comming from internationalists.

Yeah, I like little sloganeering pamphlets like The Communist Manifesto more than real books/novels too. . . "What the fuck, why did I read this garbage." -inferiority complex. More humanity? Your better perspective involves saying fuck no less than 40 times. You're thinking for yourself, good, you're doing Ayn Rand's bidding even still, oh no.

Hey I agree with alot of what you say. I like Ayn Rand's work, but I feel she was a cun.t, much the way I like much of certain actor's work but hate them. I want to thank you for the info on her beliefs of homosexuality, I am a stone cold minarchist and as a 'objectivist' I feel she should have accepted gays or at least not cared. But you're completely wrong in your generalization of people who like her work. P.S. I really think the Hitler comparison was too far delicateanarchy dot com

Right on. I don't know a lot about rand, but my gut says she's an idiot. Read Murray Rothbard's essay "the Sociology of the Ayn Rand Cult".

My problem with Ayn Rand wasn't really her ideas, but she always seemed to dismiss the value of compassion and empathy. I doubt she was an evil person, or even an unpleasant one, I would have loved to converse with her.

Max Stirner is the only true Egoist I have ever read. From what I can tell, Rand was a piss-poor philosopher and a crypto-authoritarian.
