Ex-Gay Movement: What is it?

Imagine this scenario: Some seventeen year old boys are handcuffed by their own parents and dragged to a camp where they are promised to be cured from their “mental disease;” their homosexual orientation. The “curative techniques” consist of being electrocuted, drugged, and having the “gay beaten out of them.” After a month of this “reparative therapy”, the once homosexual boys are thought to be ex-gays; meaning, they are no longer homosexual but have once again become heterosexual. This, in a nutshell, is the basic premise of the ex-gay movement.
