Is it possible for a men/women that is gay turn straight?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

Sexual orientation may be a question of nature and nurture. There have been suggestions that sexual orientation may be influenced by genetic factors. It is these research suggestion that are used in the "you're born that way, deal with it" arguments.

However, genetics can be only an influence in terms of human behavior. One learns acceptable behaviors through interactions with society. Thus, someone may go through a period of having a particular sexual orientation and then change because basic needs are not being met or significant changes in their general life patterns cause a change.

The short answer is that it is possible as some people have done it. How probable it is depends on the benefits and costs of such a shift.

Answer 3

It is so important to be honest when talking about sex and sexual preferences.
I think the Kinsey scale is a good way of getting a grasp on things.
there are two extremes:
A Kinsey 0-straight all the way.
A Kinsey 6-gay all the way.
And there's Kinsey 1-5 which is pretty much everyone else.
Most people, even though they may identify themselves as 100% one way or the other, fell between Kinsey 1-5.
Imagine that on one side of the scale is swimming and another is skiing. You are going to find people who only like one or the other, but most people can and do enjoy both at varying times in their lives.
Getting them to be honest about it, that's a different story.

Answer 4

It doesn’t work that way, it’s just bisexuals who make it appear that gays can change.

Firstly, I’m just a normal boring guy. I have a male partner, but I don’t have any contact with the gay world and I’m not part of any gay groups. When I was young I didn’t want to be gay and I would have done anything to change. The truth is I’m a gay guy who is repulsed at the idea of sex with a woman. I didn’t choose to have these feelings and there’s nothing that I can do to change the way I am. This isn’t the end of the story.

You get a lot of men who have sex with men, but they’re bisexual and not gay. A lot of these people have changed from male to female partners, but that’s always been an option open to bisexuals (that’s why they’re called bisexual).

NONAME; I’m not some kind of gay activist, I’m just a normal guy who happens to be gay. What you said isn’t true and I’ll explain to you why it’s not true. There are guys who have gone on to get married and have kids, but it doesn’t end there. The big problem is that they haven’t changed, they always were and still are bisexuals. Have you heard of gay cruising areas (guys who pick up guys for sex in parks) and gay internet chat rooms? Who do you think uses these places? I have a straight friend who works as a park ranger, so I know who gets caught in parks. I have also chatted with guys in those chat room sites, so I know who uses them. You’ll find most of these guys aren’t gay, they’re the exact same married guys who you spoke about. The ones who turned their back on the gay world and went on to get married. That’s what happens when bisexuals try and turn straight. I know that’s not what you want to hear, but it’s the truth. Is that fair on any woman? Would you be happy if your husband was having oral sex with guys in parks, looking at gay porn and chatting with men on gay chat room sites when you were in bed or when you were out? There are millions of guys like that and they’re all married men with kids. Check out those places for yourself. That’s why your comments are so laughable, you just don’t have a clue what you are talking about.

Answer 5

YOU DON'T TURN ANYTHING. A gay person can act straight ,
can date a person of the opposite sex, maybe even have sex with a person of the opposite sex, but it will always be uncomfortable and unnatural. Some people who thought they were 100% gay might be bisexual and start dating people of the opposite sex. People you thought were straight might finally come out as gay -- NOT turn gay . We are all different when it comes to accepting our sexuality.

Answer 6

Lots of gays turns straight everyday without no problems. Once they know the truth about the matter and wants the right way there is no problem except getting friends in the gay world to leave you along and you forget them and they forget you.

Answer 7

No, all psychological research points to a fixed sexual orientation, and recent studies into the hypothalamus support their findings. Attempts to change sexual orientation will never meet with success and can lead to severe depression and even suicide.
Feelings can be repressed (but only for so long, and repression also causes psychological harm) but never eliminated.

Beware of groups like PFOX and Exodus International, they use cherry-picking, fake testimonies, phony doctors, and quack research to support their pre-determined conclusions.

A real scientist will do research and look for facts before reaching a theory or conclusion.
A quack scientist will draw conclusions, then look for any facts supporting it, while ignoring the research that repudiates their claims

Answer 8

Being sexually attracted to people of the same sex is something you are born with, there is nothing you can do about it. You can counter such desires by suppressing them and live a seemingly heterosexual life with a husband/wife and children but that does not change your orientation. It also makes you unhappy and unfulfilled.

There are religious nutters who claim to be able to "turn" people and use torture and other unpleasant methods to do so. They don't succeed.

Answer 9

Anything is possible. Some people are born a certain way but for a lot of people there are many changes in their lives. Sometimes we start liking things/being interested in things that we didn't notice before.
Explore your feelings and be honest with yourself.

Answer 10

Yes, it is not only possible but happens more frequently than the homosexual community would care to admit. It goes against their "I was born gay it was not my fault" rationalization of their bad behavior. They need to step up to the reality that they are responsible for their own actions and stop blaming their parents. After all, even gay people's parents were straight, at least for a while.

Answer 11

Sure it is. Some people switch preferences many times over their lives.

My ex became gay after 10 years of marriage and two kids. My stepdaughter became straight after 6 years of living the lesbian lifestyle.

Both will tell you whom they have sex with is their choice.
