This one's been making the rounds the last few days and seems people are really upset by it. Gretha, self-styled sex-expert who has in the past caught flak for saying things like masturbation is sinful and that God did not intend for people to explore their own bodies, has published an advice book for teens.

Translated summary for the English folks:
There's another page where she says kids also become gay because they become confused during puberty and the devil tricks them into thinking they're gay, and also that kids become gay after being molested. Unfortunately there are no good quality copies of that page available online.
This section of the book has caused quite an uproar and a lot of people have been calling on the publisher to recall the book because it is not based on dangerous speculation rather than scientific evidence, and for Gretha Wiid to issue a public apology. The SAHRC has allegedly also called on Gretha Wiid to apologise.

What are your thoughts on the matter? I think it's both deeply troubling that such an unscientific piece of garbage is being published as facts, but also hilarious because no kid who is gifted this book is likely to read it anyway.

Translated summary for the English folks:
What does it mean when someone is gay?
Lots of kids want to know why people become gay. Some people say they are born gay. This is something I don't agree with. I believe with my whole heart that God made men and women to be together.
When a son doesn't receive love from his father, is mocked or is physically abused, they sometimes start to hate men.
Thus they don't want to be like men who prove their manliness through big muscles and strength. Such boys remove themselves from the boys' groups. Lots of these 'outsider' boys believe that they are different and later start believing that they are gay.
I believe with my whole heart that such men can one day be wonderful husbands to their wives, but they they are unfortunately cannot speak to somebody in time, until it is too late.
Other kids are teased at school because they play chess or piano or don't like rugby. Kids call these boys 'moffies', another term for a gay men. (back of the page, not shown here) These kids then think they are gay.
