Welcome To My World:
Guest Corner An Ex-EXodus Gay Looks at the Ex-Gay Movement. April 15, Tueday, FHPFLAG Monthly Meeting. 7:00 pm My head was spinning. I had just had an experience I knew would be one of those once-in-a-life-time defining moments and I didn't know what to do. I was scared. At times like that, you reach for anything you can hang onto. That something was an organization from the area I grew up in and had heard about through radio and church. It was a place that offered help and hope...for those struggling with same sex addiction. I was desperate and needed to talk to someone who could relate to what I was feeling, right now!
Please come to hear about Don’s journey into and out of the Ex-Gay world called EXODUS INTERNATIONAL ******** FHPFLAG invites you to share your story on this page. You can send your story to tjhawk@cox.net and confidentiality will be maintained to the extent that you want it to be. Are you....
“Out” and what difference has that made in your life?
An “advocate” and has that contributed to your identity?
A parent of a gay child? What has your journey taught you?
A gay parent or straight or gay children? What challenges are you facing?
Transgender and winding your way through other’s misconceptions about your identity?
Active Duty Military and finishing your service under the oppression of DADT?
Would you like to make an editorial comment about an issue?
Tell us about your life, experiences, and ideas. Just send an email to the web master at fhpflag@sbcglobal.net
