Description
Bringing to light an extreme fundamentalist Christian view, this insiderΓ―¿½s perspective offers hope to people grappling with the aftereffects of a cult-like movement often known as Γ―¿½Reparative Therapy.Γ―¿½ The movement assumes that going from gay to straight is easily changeable and change-worthy, despite decades of psycho/sexual research to the contrary. Although it did not succeed in making the authorΓ―¿½a Southern Baptist who attended an ex-gay ministry at a young ageΓ―¿½straight, it did undermine his self-esteem and confuse him significantly, thus leading him to pursue an advanced degree in sexology in order to help others in similar positions. Offering a detailed comparison of the ex-gay world and the phenomenon known as Religious Abuse, this manual shares a personal journey through the hopeless mistreatment and manipulative system of ex-gay ministries and the recovery process involved in regaining strength, acceptance, and self-worth.
