Answer 1

No,,,If someone is its the same as you being straight, you cant fix that right. Some people are meant to be that way and trying to fix it wont happen, he would be pretending/acting straight and denying who he really is......

Answer 2

I wouldn't focus on it being a "fix", because many believe that it's not something that is broken.

There are lots of programs that help gay men understand and deal with potentially becoming heterosexual. You don't say how old John is, but many teenagers are in an experimental age, and may think they're gay when they're just "sexual".

I think that guilt isn't helping him - but instead of saying "gay" what if you said "taps his foot" - so if you wanted to stop tapping your foot you might buy a brick for it, stay away from bar stools, not hang around other foot tappers - gay is the same way - it brings less temptation if you're not around other gays, but I think just working on controlling the urges is a good start - once he gets older he can figure out what is true sexuality really is.

Answer 3

If he is a homosexual, he was born a homosexual. Nothin can be done about it. Why they are born this way, nobody really knows 4 sure. But look at the situation like this....U do not get turned on when u think of having sexual intercoarse with a man, right? That is because u are not attracted to men. Now, he feels the exact same way when he thinks about having sex with a woman..HE IS NOT TURNED ON OR AROUSED AT ALL!! So how can u fix something like that? U couldnt FIX yourself to get aroused by a man, could u? Just pray for him baby, and i will too..

Answer 4

Most psychologist affirm that it is not a disease--if it's not broken, you can't fix it. There are Christian groups which will try to change a persons orientation, but from what I've read it doesn't last long.

This is a deep seated thing. The exact cause isn't known. And if you don't know the cause of something you can make an adjustment. (eg; If I don't know exactly why my car isn't running right I can't make it work, I can only fiddle with things and try to get it to run)

Answer 5

I am a devoted Catholic, and let me tell you this. Being gay isn't a sin!! It is a sin if you fulfill these sexual urges by having sex with a man. He should go to confession and ask his priest or another religious adult from his church what he can do to control his sexual desires. Please tell him it's not his fault; God made him that way. Just because he's gay doesn't mean he isn't normal and as equal as everybody else. Also, tell him to pray a lot and ask God for guidance with his life, sexual urges, and decisions. Your friend will be fine. He's lucky to have such a good friend like you. God Bless You Two!

Answer 6

it can't be fixed, it's the way you are, the way you're born. just as you could never stop being straight he can never stop being gay. plus, i don't think fixed is the right word, he's not broken. he is still your friend, the same person who you have always known, and his sexuality shouldn't change that. i agree with kanga_tush2, who are you judge, that's up to God.

if he's finding it hard, be there for him, so he can talk to you about what he's going through. homosexuality isn't a disease, it's just a slightly different way of life.

Answer 7

I think people are born that way. I seen on t.v where they have this place where gay people can go and try to fix themselves about 1 out of 100 say they are cured. Others try and get married living a lie and having kids just to go right back to seeing the same sex. If he was your friend before he told you then you should remain his friend afterwards. You know who you are and it really should not bother you about his sexual preference. If you want just tell him your not that way so you will not have to worry about this person picking up on you. It is their life let them lead it the way they want to.

Answer 8

Doesn't go away, you can personally say that you won't participate in it, but you are stuck liking guys the rest of your life. It's not a disease, or a mental illness, it's just part of life. Even in the animal world there is this gayness... but animals that don't have reasoning don't cure it--- they have to live with it. What he can do is just make up his mind, if he is gonna follow he's religion and views being gay bad then he has to commit not to participate in it. He's gonna need a lot of praying to do :)~

Answer 9

honestly bro God is my #1 in life i have his name tattood across my chest, ur right homosexuality is a sin but jesus died for ALL sins not just honoring ur mother and father all sins are equal and all are deadly without christ but if you both believe that he died for all of your sins then it really shouldnt matter... so basically no im pretty sure homosexuality cannot be "fixed" but if he's been your friend for three years im sure u can be his even though he looks at a different porno than you. and dont give me the 10 points i dont want them im just here to help others not get more levels or any of that bullshit. you asked
i just answered
God Bless

Answer 10

It is not a sin. It does not need to be fixed. I know many Christians believe that it is a sin and needs to be fixed, but that is one point of view, from one religion - not some universal truth.

It will be better if you and he agree not to discuss the subject. You should respect his confidence in you by not talking about this with anyone, and he should be careful about who he chooses to discuss this issue with.

Answer 11

No i dont think personally that homosexsuals can stop being gay. I mean If you were born that way then i guess thats how you are. And if he just came out of the closet i guess hes not gonna change in a while... if ever.
