- Quotes
Self - Former Board President, Exodus: I realized that my dishonesty hurt people. Because I was dishonest, it caused people in the audience - people that were struggling with homosexuality or had gay feelings - to feel like, "There must be something wrong with me 'cause I'm not like him. And he doesn't- he's not tempted anymore. So if I'm tempted, I must be broken and damaged."
I feel like it's scared to fully demonise these monsters that push conversion therapy. It doesn't chastise them as much as I would have thought, which is ok I guess. It makes it more impartial but I feel also gives a message that "oh well look on both sides" when that isn't ok! There is only one side in this! These people are awful. They have caused irreparable damage to queer people!
It is easy to laugh especially in a part where a group of men gather because they are Ex-gay. These men are completely gay. It is like the most campest thing you'll ever see. But before you laugh at this like I saw people did, remember that these people have been brainwashed. They are trapped and scared to be who they are!
Please watch and listen to these peoples stories. They deserve to be heard.
