I Tried To Change My Sexual Orientation With Exgay Therapy

Leaders of 'exgay' organizations such as Exodus International like to assert change is possible and point to themselves as proof that 'change is possible.'

In this series of interviews survivors of 'exgay' programs explain how they too once believed their sexual orientation only to realize later a genuine change had NOT occurred.

Thank you sir for you honesty. We need to hear your voice.

It is possible for someone to change their sexual orientation. I don't think anyone should be forced to change their sexual orientation.

You can alter your sexuality, but not in a big way. Never ever can you get rid of your sexual orientation or your sexual preferences. Straigt or gay might learn to be a bit bi, but not to turn completely.

...You can choose your destiny sexual or otherwise. Trying to judge your sexual identity solely by what turns you on is self limiting. People get turned on by all manner of things. The beauty is that every human has the ability to use their imagination to modify reality. If you can be turned on by a beautiful man you can with some though manage to find desire in a beautiful woman or maybe envision a combination of the two. What is amazing is how quickly you regain power over your sexual destiny.

This is really insightful but not uncommon. Sex is one of those things that so many people are hung up on. I feel for this gentleman. The mistake I believe that many people make primarily when dealing with unwanted desires is to try to suppress them rather than just deal with them. We all have desires for things that can not be satisfied and that is completely natural. The options are many and as flexible as the imagination. Stop beating yourself up over incongruities with your fantasies...
