Can homosexuals change?

The man who led the charge in the 1970s to remove homosexuality from a list of mental disorders now says that those claiming to be “ex-gay” are telling the truth.

The article goes on to say that this man, Robert Spitzer, was skeptical of “reparative therapy” before starting the study, but has come to agree that it is quite possible (which sounds like those who are willing to look for the truth just might find it). While he agrees that his study is just a first look, further study is probably not going to happen due to institutional bias.

Spitzer, who said he was skeptical of reparative therapy before beginning the study, said more studies need to be done.

“[But] given the cost and complexity of such a study and the current view in the mental health professions of the benefits and risks of reorientation therapy, such a study is not going to happen in the near future,” he wrote. “This is unfortunate because of the real questions raised, albeit admittedly not resolved, by this study.”
