How come ex-gays date only each other?
Or is it because an ex-gay dating a true hetero is impossible because true heteros would be freaked over hitting the sheets with someone who swings both ways?

1. I used to wish I was an ex-gay...
now I'm content with who I am. :)

Off topic: What happens when we reach a point where parents can select everything about their child? Hair colour, height, skin colour...even sexuality. How many parents would leave that up to chance? Not many, I'd imagine. Would it mean the end of homosexuality, thanks to science? :scared:

3. I like men, but much to my shock I've found some women fascinating too.
But back to the topic, it probably would be.

Scientific "progress" is brought about by "religious" concerns or quest for profit. Anyone who says "philanthropy" or "altruism" is a fool in my book. And I used to be the biggest fool of them all...

5. The religious nuts who believe sexuality is programmed and can be containd
They've been proven wrong, but that doesn't stop them. (as with all things in "life". It's not proof. It's how they perceive life to be.)

4. no one...except them...buys the "ex-gay" stuff
Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 08:59 PM by noiretblu
i have a a former lesbian friend who is now married to an always straight man and even he doesn't buy it. he freaks out everytime she talks to another woman :shrug: as for her, she knows she's not "ex" anything: she just decided to settle because she wanted to have a child. and she has one...her husband.
my other friend who tried to straighten herself out will probably have to move across country to get away from her still-obsessesd ex-husband who is outraged that she wants to be a lesbian again after she didn't get pregnant with him :shrug: i don't feel sorry for him in the least...he's more pissed about losing his mealticket than anything else.

6. The same reason repressed in the closet people marry
repressed in the closet people. No sexual tension makes for harmonious companionship when not on the computer or in bars pursuing other relationships.
