Open Letter to Psychology Today: You Cannot Ignore Ex-Gays That Have Changed
Ex-Gays Ask Psychology Today to Stop Discriminating Against Clients that Seek Sexual Orientation Change Efforts and Therapists that Help Them Washington, D.C. -- On March 23, the leadership at Psychology Today received a letter from Voice of the Voiceless Advisory Board Member, Jeremy Schwab, asking the popular psychology magazine and website to stop discriminating against ex-gays, clients who experience unwanted same-sex attraction (SSA) and seek Sexual Orientation Change Effort (SOCE) therapy, and the licensed mental health practitioners who assist them.

Jeremy,
Thank you for your writing. I too have been helped by reparative therapy and gender affirmation work. I feel better about myself, have worked on healing my childhood wounds, have created better relationships with those around myself and ultimately feel better about myself and my life.
This therapy saved my life, and I am forever grateful for it and my therapist who helped me come so far and achieve so much.
I always found it ironic that the gay activists who preach tolerance are always the ones least tolerant of those who seek change. When they argue that the therapy is dangerous, I can’t help but wonder if they have read about the dangers of their lifestyle, the continuing horrifying CDC statistics, and other research that points to the mental, emotional and physical lifestyle dangers they pose to themselves. For example, the research done by Family Research Council (www.frc.org/get.cfm) If someone is trying to help free themselves from those harmful dangers, why stop them?
Hypocritical is all I can say about the gay activists. It’s painful to see the gay activists bullying ex-gays, yet preach for others to not bully them.
Thank you,
Sam
