Why don't ex-gays' stories count?

“What are you talking about? Who is “they” in your statement?”

The husband. There’s nobody else in the sentence that could be interpreted as the subject, so that should have been obvious. There’s not even any other person involved besides the wife, and the wife wouldn’t be lecturing herself, so the husband is not only the only grammatical option, he’s the only logical option. So stop nitpicking when you can’t even find a proper nit.

“Why CAN’T a husband comment on his wife’s period? Is HIS pain SO very different?”

I didn’t say anything about “pain”, that is you trying to read something into my statement that wasn’t here. I said it would be ludicrous for a husband to lecture his wife on “its affect on his wife”, which is obviously much more than simply “pain”. The husband has never had that subjective experience, and even if he were a medical doctor, his knowledge could only ever be secondhand, and secondhand knowledge of a subjective experience is going to be incomplete, by its very nature.

If you can’t understand that, then you really shouldn’t be trying to comment on anyone’s logic at all.
