Thanks to Biruitorul and Ronline for fixing my stupid mistakes - keep digging, gentlemen, there's bound to be more in an article this size :). Dahn ( talk) 13:16, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi. I'm writing in relation to the sentence about sexual orientation and/or lifestyle choices causing a rift between the young Negoițescu and his parents. I have read the sources (perhaps not carefully enough) and I agree that they are very ambiguous. Indeed, they don't even make the causal link between 1) his sexual orientation, 2) a negative reaction on his parents' behalf and 3) suicide attempts. This source mentions the suicide attempts without any direct background, aside from describing Negoiţescu as eccrentric, "rău, "turbat". This one makes a general reference to "sexual precocity". My question, then, is what lifestyle choices in particular were responsible for the conflict between Negoiţescu and his parents? Was it his homosexuality and his "sexual precocity"? Or was it all this and his broader eccentricity during adolescence? If this can reasonably be implied from the sources, then it should be stated specifically. I think the term "lifestyle choices" is problematic for two reasons. Firstly, it is too general (the reader naturally asks themselves, "What lifestyle choices?"). Secondly, the expression is a very loaded one, particularly in US English; homosexuality is often talked about as a "lifestyle choice" or a " gay lifestyle" by the Christian Right.
