Ck – I lean your direction on this. I get all kinds of emails from people asking personal questions and I don’t answer. I do know Chad is writing a second book and he may address some of these issues in that project.

Rob,

some folks are content if they can simply learn to live celibate. That may be enough “change” for them.

I wish ex-gay groups were a bit more honest about what they mean by “change” (ok, a lot more honest) and not hide behind vague terms. If they went on TV and said “I don’t have sex” that wouldn’t make very good television so they say “I’m ex-gay” or “a former homosexual” or “I’ve changed” and let the audience believe that they’ve gone from a homosexual orientation to a heterosexual orientation.

I hate the deceit. But if that kind of change is enough for Chad, that’s fine with me – as long as he gives full disclosure.

ck, when people announce themselves on Good Morning America or the Oprah Winfrey show as being an ex-gay, I believe that people in general are thinking that this person has been able to convert from same-sex lust to opposite-sex lust. This is the only REAL change in sexual orientation. If Chad can’t answer a simple question like this, he shouldn’t have put himself in the spotlight.

ex-gay underwear???

Rob, you’re not “going all Mormon” on us are you 🙂

BTW: (unrelated tip for free) try Manila for frantic undergarment shopping blowout.

Makati. 8? mega-shopping malls face each other. Much of said product is sewn in Manila and exported under expensive labels.

All you need to tolerate is two charming shop girls (per shopper) who run ahead and un-box stuff if you even so much as roll your eyes that direction. No dear, I DO NOT want that ugly leopard-print thong thing… (do I look like a 60 year old German man??? Don’t answer that…)

And the prices! We threw out all our skanky old undies from 3 months of backbacking in Vietnam and came home with a squillion 2(x)ist blah blah blah. The local “Bench” brand is very good value too. Very good.

Loved Manila! Charming, steaming, heaving, crazy Asia. The locals are delightful.

Ha! And Warren never guessed his blog would ever be used to promote excessive use of “foundation garments” 🙂
