A prominent gay conversion therapist and active member of the “ex-gay” scene has announced his intentions to start a new life as a homosexual. David Matheson, author of the book Becoming a Whole Man and creator of several experimental programs which seek to “address incongruous same-sex attractions” revealed he is now seeking to date men.
The announcement was revealed by fellow gay conversion advocate Rich Wyler, founder of the People Can Change organization, in a post to a private Facebook group obtained by Truth Wins Out (TWO), a group who fight against anti-LGBT prejudice and discrimination.
“David…says that living a single, celibate life ‘just isn’t feasible' for him, so he’s seeking a male partner,” Wyler wrote. “He has gone from bisexuality to exclusively gay.”
In a further statement to TWO, Matheson, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, confirmed the statement from Wyler, adding his time in a straight marriage and the “ex-gay” world was “genuine and sincere and a rich blessing to me.”
“I remember most of it with fondness and gratitude for the joy and growth it caused in me and many others. But I had stopped growing and was starting to die,” he said. “I wasn’t faking it all those years. I’m not renouncing my past work or my LDS faith. And I’m not condemning mixed-orientation marriages. I continue to support the rights of individuals to choose how they will respond to their sexual attractions and identity. With that freedom, I am now choosing to pursue life as a gay man.”
His announcement was rejected by Chaim Levin, who claims to have been psychologically damaged after attending Wyler’s and Matheson’s Journey into Manhood gay conversion program.
“While I am pleased for Mr Matheson that he has found a path forward for his life,

He has apparently succumbed to his own depravity and perversion.
Fell off the wagon. Sad.
““He has gone from bisexuality to exclusively gay.”
I doubt there is a difference in this sick sh(t lifestyle..
Can therapy change physiological responses? That’s what makes for a homosexual, someone who is involuntarily aroused by someone of the same sex.
And if therapy can change physiological responses, why are pedophiles said to be incurable?
No amount of therapy could get me to be turned on by some hairy-backed male. How about you guys?
Conversion converted the converter.
Great, go clean some sewer pipes with your penis.
Should be fine.
Giver or receiver?
I hear you. I actually feel revulsion at the thought of male on male sex contact, and no attraction whatsoever to male body parts.
There are no bisexual men. Only gay men who for very conflicted reasons have had sex with women on occasion. This is, outside of drugs, the primary reason hetero women get AIDS.
He committed a typical tactical error when dealing with sin: think about it enough, and eventually it will grab you.
Words fail me.....
a “hole” man? Hear there’s a mare in Indiana who is looking to run for pres. Peter Buttigige. No lie.
Does he like to give Mitts or get them?
You tell me that most “therapists” are not really screwed-up...
The problem with people who are primarily same-sex attracted trying to develop other-sex attraction is that I still wouldn’t want a child of mine to marry one. It fails too often.
Perhaps I am unChristian or uncharitable, but it seems too dangerous.
Isn’t it kind of funny though, in a mean way, that the ones that worry about it so much are the ones that are actually gay. It’s a classic “thou does protest too much”. Like their insecurities about their own masculinity lead them to project it onto others.
Pervs gotta perv....
.... Couldn’t he just listen to some of his own tapes or something ....
