New website refutes the 'ex-gay' myth

An innovative new website from the activist organization Truth Wins Out (TWO) will enhance the gay community’s ability to fight the myth of so-called “ex-gay” therapy and counter right-wing propaganda. The site will be highlighted by an extensive and unprecedented video catalog of ex-gay survivors and sexual orientation experts.

For years, the ex-gay industry has dominated the flow of information on “conversion” therapy. With the establishment of its multimedia site, launched March 26, TWO staffers feel the gay movement has gained the means to counter ex-gay lies and reach vulnerable people with messages of truth and hope.

“TruthWinsOut.org is a one-stop-shop for information on the ex-gay myth and an action center for those who want to fight back against this insidious industry,” said TWO Executive Director Wayne Besen. “We believe this site will help people come out, keep families together and even save lives. This is a great day for those who have long wanted to stop the spread of ex-gay misinformation and help people escape the ex-gay trap.” See New website refutes the ‘ex-gay’ myth
