This is a free cowntry, im gay and wish to change, gay life is fun but very harsh, and empty, i havent had a change yet, but if i do i would be happy, chAnge is aleays hard. 2 thumbs up for the one that did, i have 2 ex gay friends and they happy with who they are now... Wish i could do too... Nothing is impossible if u really want to
Homosexuality is no more a choice than heterosexuality. If you don't think so, then exactly when did you choose to be heterosexual? I choose to be straight, did everything a church told me to to become straight, got an exorcism to become straight, and almost committed suicide when none of their BS worked. There are many people who went to a church instead of someone not so ignorant and many of them now are dead by suicide or traumatized and atheists as a result of the church.
so according to the lady doctor, i am who i am because i am heterosexual? my sexual identity makes me happy and free? i can't believe some people are angry because this guy doesn't WANT to be gay. That's what i call intolerance.
@wowoak I am gay and have no problem with what he is doing, because it is his choice. As long as people like this do not make gay people who feel they are happy, feel they must do what he is doing.
You cannot "cannot" change if you are gay or lesbian, i know that for a fact cause i am a lesbian and i tried for years to be with men to please my family and it was torture! Now i've let my feelings be and i am happy.
I'm going to start an ex-straight conversion therapy group. Teach men how to watch Bring It On, sit with their legs crossed, and take their mother and little sisters shopping.
Jesus...please set me free from heterosexuality! LMAO
Uraine7626 and according to your bible it's a sin to eat shellfish and to mix fabrics.. and in your bible slavery was o.k. interesting how you bigots use the bible to bash gays!!
All these men in here are confused and crazy! Sorry to say that but throwing around words like, faith, masculinity, oil changes, suppression, conflict, and guilt in a conversation therapy for many years will do something to your head!
What I find full of sh!t is the fact that society only tackles the mantle of a problem instead of digging beneath the surface. The cause of Homosexuality was always based in hormonal imbalance. The topic at hand, I don't find full of sh!t because these are key topics that can be the determining point on the destabilization of an archetypal societal structure. This is important, but it is only presented on a superficial and meaningless stage.
He is REALLY deludded isn't he?! He acts like his sexuality is "BAD" and a "sin". Wow.... thats...He was "cured" from being gay. OF COURSE THEY ARE OFFENDED.
Also, many gay people do take these conversion therapies yet they do not have the will to change, they just go there to prove that it doesn't work, well it's just the will.
Why do people give a shit? So he doesn't want to be gay, so what? It's his life, I'm sure he had many reasons to not want to stay gay. I believe if there is a strong will, miracles are possible to happen.
Maybe sexuality is malleable and if that's the case, and even if it isn't, who cares? that guy and his wife have the right to live together, and be themselves, and that other guy has the right to be himself.We can't tell ppl how to be themselves, and the only ones benefitting are the phony "doctors"
you are the one that spelled "you're" wrong. who's the idiot now? it is NOT possible to convert someone's sexuality. they can think they are cured but they never are
Thats for the person in question to decide. You may have an opinion about that, but you can't just assume someone's happiness based on the small amount of people who choose to stop living that lifestyle. You're pretty much labelling all gay/lesbian people as having the same thought process. Do you know every gay and lesbian person on the face of the Earth? You saying that its absolutely NOT possible to change someone's sexuality just shows how truly ignorant you are.
Gay people, please try Jesus, he never fails..He created you and he knows how to put those hurting lifestyle back to where you belong. Your future is bright if you go to him..Surrender you r life to Him.He is there waiting for you..
@justinfiji Why do you not say that to those who have gotten divorced and remarried, and married someone who is divorced? Jesus said that is adultery. So why do you not lay heavy burdens on them to divorce and go back to their first husband or wife, or wait for them to die, then they can remarry? You're just another pick and chooser of the scriptures!.....You may have a touch of hypocrisy as well!
There is sexual orientation or sexual behavior. The percentage of successful change of sexual orientation is below 0%, in the 0.5's. The percentage of change of sexual behavior is much more high. If you're gay, you're gay. You can have sex with anyone or anything but it doesn't mean you like them.
@summerstudios AMEN!! I tried so long to be "straight" for the past 12 years. I'm now an out lesbian, but I've had sex with dudes and sort of liked it, though emotionally there was nothing there. When I got a "crush" on a guy I realized I liked him more as a friend in the end. I've always been gay, always will be gay, you may have sex with somebody and like it somewhat, but you will always be you in the end!
The fact that there are people in this day and age who actually believe that being gay is something treatable--that it is something that NEEDS to be treated--is truly horrifying. It's as bad as trying to make someone change from being African American or the like. It's not therapy, it's not helpful. It's vile.

I used to sympathize with the spouses in these scenarios, but at some point I think they choose to toss common sense out the window.
Come on, look at the man and listen to him. And he's the poster child. Is that the Best they can do?
