The kid at the end saying "God gave us a choice, and my choice is to love" was really sweet
It’s just so sad that people think that beating a child and traumatizing them for life is going “un-gay” them. You can’t change someone’s sexuality, their just born that way. This pertains to gender as well. Sex is different from gender.
Amen to that I could not say it better myself!!
Honestly why don't they close it down? This is so heartbreaking.
Thanks! A Bisexual/Pansexual Non-binary person!
@@jharbie because such an action is "political" nowadays.
@@nickosmond9561 your whole identity is a fad and the ultimate social construct and the cool hip edgy thing of your generation,its been forced on you by the loud lgbtq lobby and u dont even know it,youll grow up abit and realise your just bisexual end of
I feel like the people running these things don’t realize that being gay is not a choice...
Also, I just love the intro to this. It’s so mysterious.
Edit: Why do all of these hate groups have the world Family in them?
Edit: 2.5 kids? Poor little Jimmy’s only half.
This sickens me that these are still around and if i was with my grandparents i know my sister and I would be sent there and harmed if I wasn’t in a foster care. Thank you matt for shedding more light into this
I really hate when they say "preventable and treatable" as if their talking about Covid or any other illness. Like tf
This shouldn't have a place
in the modern world...
I was in a place that did conversion therapy as well as other things. While I was being interviewed by the pastor he asked me if I was gay (and I was there for something unrelated) and I said yes. He asked me how I felt about it (by now I was 23) and I said I had grown to embrace it. He gave me a nasty look and said well here we dont agree with that and it will not be tolerated.
Instead of embracing myself and who I am, he wanted me to regress to the self hating, self harming teenager who hated himself that I used to be. Just like he hated his gay self as a middle aged 40 something man. (I strongly sensed he was closeted) Needless to say I didnt stay there long. I was happier sleeping on the street in a northeast winter for a while. Love and embrace who you are! Dont repress yourself, love yourself! 😃🌈
Shine on! You are brave and I am sorry you had to face that ❤
Happy pride to whoever is reading this: you are valid! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
HAPPY PRIDE
Happy pride month🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈!
Thank you so much! 🏳️🌈
you too :D
Happy life after Pride!
Canada officially banned conversion therapy in January 2022. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Oh shit same month as my birthday, great birth month gift for me
We really still call it “therapy” when it’s literally fucking torture and abuse
Gay conversion torture it is then.
See you all when it starts! Happy Pride Month! 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈♥（╹◡╹）
Same to you! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Same to you guys. 🏳️🌈
Happy pride month 🏳️🌈
Happy Pride to you as well, thank you!
Happy Pride :) [rainbow flag]
Thank you for making this! I can’t wait to share this with my friends, family, and loved ones just to show them how horrible this -therapy- torture is because, most of them being straight, they haven’t really had to endure a lot of the torment, bullying, internalized hatred, and struggles I have, we LGBTQ+ individuals have had to and continue to experience in our lives.
did you show them. . .
I was raised in a Pentecostal church. I knew I was gay at age nine. I didn’t fully grasp it until I was 13. Meanwhile, I was going to church and being told how evil I am and how I’m going to hell and so on. I had to listen to the pastor preach about how evil gay is. I couldn’t tell anyone, I couldn’t get guidance.. etc. I fought with my feelings, I tried praying the gay away… etc etc. I thought about ending things. Etc. keep in mind, I knew without a doubt I was gay by 13 and knew I was attracted to males at nine. I didn’t choose it. In fact I tried to ignore it. I wanted to be straight, because of what my church thought. Well after I knew I am gay, I dated a girl and I was repulsed by her. I couldn’t stand being around her. Not long after, I met a boy I really liked a lot. We kissed and it was like I saw fireworks. That cemented my sexuality. Then my pastor was caught with an underage boy in a park. And my effing church forgave him! Made me sick and worst yet, my uncle molested me when I was 14. Forced me to.. do stuff. He literally forced me to. This confused me so much. Why is my church so dead set against gays but members of the church, including my pastor, were caught in gay situations even illegal situations. Finally at 16, I was caught with that boy in bed having sex. My church found out and I was removed from the church and my family disowned me. I was thrown out. Walked to a bridge and hid under the road deck and I balled and I balled myself to sleep. It destroyed me. Two years later I attempted to end myself. Landed in icu for a week. Then mental place for two weeks. I long recovered. Went to university. Got a masters. Own a home. I’m married to my man. And I’m well liked in my community. I still have demons fighting me from what happened to me. I know my church wanted to send me to suicide camp. But I declined and disowned me for it. Even still, I still tried to end myself because of what my family did, what my church did. Had I been subjected to suicide camp, o would no doubt ended myself. Theirs no HATE like religious love
This made me cry, and im shocked that this is still a thing😭
To all religious LGBTQ+ peeps you’re valid and god loves you!❤️❤️❤️
Conversion therapy is unbased and cringe.
Facts
You are all valid, no matter what or who you are. Keep being you! :)
I am the good church girl who's growing up in the Texan Baptist church and in the choir and community, but who I am is sinful in their eyes, so although I love these people, I pretend and lie to try and make them think that I'm the normal girl they assume I am. It gives me people who care for me and activities to do as well as the beginnings for a relationship with God, so I pretend that I'm what they want. Only my close friends and you online know completely what I am because I would lose so much if I came out. However, I still have a reason to live. If I got put in that camp at the state I'm already in, which is already very depressed, I would most likely end up as many others in those camps did. My heart goes out to all those who were and are in those camps, and I wish for nobody else to go into those damaging facilities.

🏳️🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🏳️🌈
Happy Pride to you as well, thank you!
They still do electrocute therapy in China as gay conversion therapy. It’s really sad and it’s hard for them to fight back
"Success rate" my *ss, come on...wouldn't you lie about anything you have to, just to escape torture?!
This is why we have a month.
This is the best argument againts those who say that lgbt people kept "shoving it down our thoats" when in fact, it was the zealots that did it to the lgbt people far worst and far longer. It is a sick double standerds that literally destroys lives of tens and millions.
As a trans and bi catholic guy, I really relate to this. I got sent to a type of conversion therapy at thirteen and the sound of specific church bells actively gives me panic attacks because all I can remember is them screaming that I am dirty.
Are you still a tithing member of the catholic church?
Since the conversion therapy places insist on going under a religious umbrella can they be sued for abuse and torture of minors the same way that the Catholic church was sued? Lawsuits would seriously put a dent in and possibly shut down these places of torture. They would also certainly discourage churches from seeing this as a money making operation. Not to sound cynical but too many churches place money over people's souls and they don't give a damn about the injury they cause to get that money.
Amazing quality as expected!
Happy pride y’all 🏳️🌈
Happy Pride to you as well, thank you!
You too!
Happy pride month!
me at the start: i probably wont cry
me at the end: *sobbing*
great job on making this though! it was really amazing!
i wanted to hug the one guy yelling 51.10
happy pride month! notifications on 💛🏳️🌈
Strongly done. The only thing I would add is that Boy Erased is far too concerned with humanizing and forgiving those parents who force a child into CT - far too Turn the Seventh Cheek.
First of all, why should you want to change who you are just because of what others think about you?! Love yourself! Your mental health is way more important than what society or others think about you ✌🏾
Top tier quality as always!
Loved the film!
But
The background music is too loud I think. It makes it hard to listen to the documentary
happy pride
I would like to clarify something that was said in this documentary: Although it’s true that §175, the paragraph that banned homosexuality in Germany, was abolished in its entirety in 1994, it was already revised in 1969, allowing homosexuality for anyone over 21. I moved to Germany in my mid-teens in 1970 and I remember clearly that gays were very open in the early 70s. In fact, although I’m straight, in my early 20s, I used to go regularly to a gay night club (I loved the drag shows!) because they were still open when our regular disco closed and we didn’t want to go home yet. They were very accepting of straight people being there just as “normal” discos were okay with gays/lesbians being there.
holy molly i was watched today the Pray Away from netflix (about the Conversion Therapy too)
How do these psychiatrists and psychologist manage to keep their licenses??? In the UK you would be struck off for conducting "conversion therapy". These people are a disgrace to their profession.
I noticed that they’re complaining a lot about aromantic sex, and people that are LGBT who are having sex, but don’t have romantic partners.
I have had literally enough of even the words of Conversion Therapy - that practice is disgusting and not godly at all. There needs to be instant change.
Happy pride month 🏳️🌈
Also, thank you for shining a light on the issue of these sickening programs, all the love/support that you provide, & hard work you put into this well done documentary.
I found this documentary to be incredibly informing and well put together, if not for the choice of musical overlay throughout its entirety. The playlist is too competitive and obnoxious to focus well on the content, which again is so good. Otherwise, I’m so glad I stumbled upon it.
I am sad because I never got to disclose my sexuality to family. Im almost 60 and i feel left out from family events mainly because of my being gay. My sisters knew but i never told my parents due to fear from being disowned. It happens to many children and adolescents and adults.
Wow, what an amazing documentary! Will captions be available?
Happy Pride Month Everyone!🌈🌈
i love your pfp : )
Thanks!😁
@@river7939 your welcome
Man I'm scared here, a 13 yo gay teen in a majority muslim country where state and religion are intertwined, i just hope Indonesia doesnt go down the path of the UAE
OMG please be ultra careful until you can move to a civilized country. The UK is probably best. People here honestly don't give a fig if you are gay, trans, bi....people here are just people and certainly nobody (I know of) defines themselves by their sexual orientation.
Honestly it's the best documentary I've ever watched! Thank you so much!!!
Hope this documentary gets more views !
I'm queer, and I'm here, you best get used to it 😘🏳️🌈❤️🧡🤍💅
This isn't really on topic with the video but someone compared comp het to conversion therapy the other day. Watching this to learn more today :)
Conversion Therapy Kills
thank you *
Conversion therapy is, quit literally, grooming.
LOL no

“So a beanstalk is a big *****?” I loved that
Also I’m abrosexual and genderfluid and nobody else on my family is lgbtq that I know of, I suspect a bi aunt though
And I always get mixed signals from them if they accept the community... I think they accept gay/lesbian/binary trans/non-binary but idk about everything else? Does anybody have the same situation?
I'm genderfluid too and omnisexual and have a similar situation. I know my parents support LGB and binary trans people but idk about non-binary people so...
I didn’t know that this hate-groups still exist omg
There’s something else I noticed, but appealing to parents or guardians, who believe in this, they can’t be challenged by the individuals who are harmed because challenging it and the court requires money, and the fact that these people could be shunned from their families for doing so.
13:49 Joseph Nicolosi's NOT gay?
Wish the stigma would end, for obvious reasons: People are who they are. It is important to bring this out too, however: being the “cover girl” more than once in my life was awful. It hurts to know they were thinking of someone else when i was thinking of them ... it hurts to be used when you love.
Great graphic and data in comparing the top pro and anti gay organizations!!!!
Remove their licensing from these reintegrative therapists. Shut them down.
@@CanadaDragon1 You poor stupid ignorant moron 🤣 They have made it illegal in many states for minors. Go kick sand you closeted coward.
I'm so lucky that my parents where to religious to even assume that I'm gay and thanks to it I dogged at least this bullet
Thank you for putting this together! Why did you crop out the Refinery29 logo on the clips from Semler's State of Grace interviews on conversion therapy? I notice you listed them in the credits, so it seems odd to not include it onscreen.
Everyone needs to have a friend to run for help if they need it.
Religious exemption is dumb.
1:04:44 orange
great presentation, thank you from this trans woman
I'd be curious to know the 'success' rate of this 'therapy'. In other words, who are they claiming it has worked for? And what proof do they have that these people were a) actually gay in the first place or b) aren't simply lying now?
The empirical evidence is about the same as changing the color of one's eyes or changing left-hand dominant people into right-hand dominant people. Absolutely no evidence, simply because you can't wish away/talk away a persons genetic makeup.
As I watch this a question that keeps coming to mind, and I'm sure its not original to me, is that for all the states and and other entities who are trying erase huge swaths of sexual expression and gender identities with bathroom bills, book bans, don't say gay legislation, sports participation exclusions and on and on; are all these fascist efforts to keep the reality and open dialogue about gender and sexuality being applied to the religious groomers and holy haters. Can they they have books and teachings about promoting their rigidity and fear of difference? Do these people and their deliberately ignorant legislation also ban good news clubs, teachers and counselors bringing their faith into the classroom, religious texts, and unsupported disinformation from being disseminated? By the way this was written in April 2024.
Congrats from Brazil! What exists here is not a legal ban on conversion therapy, but a resolution (from 1999) of the Federal Council of Psychology. This council is autonomous, and can revoke the license of professionals who are proven to practice conversion therapy. It helps a lot, but reactionaries (people, politicians, churches, ministries and organizations that have become informal - like Exodus Brasil) continue to demonize LGBT people. Fascists will not pass.

intelectulally, I do believe you could theoretically change sexuality, but morally it is far to risky and is bad
Really? Do you also believe that it is theoretically possible to change from gay to straight?
@@michaelfourie345 if you genetically modify them
@@hamishthehero6872 Which genes do you suggest are modified? Let the geneticists know because they still don't know which genes are 'responsible'. Having just completed an MSc in genetics I can assure you that there are no behavioural traits that result from a single gene. It is always a combination of genes and it is insanely complicated. We can't even find a single gene responsible for 99.999% of human congenital diseases. As an aside I doubt any sane scientist would waste their time on such pointless and profligate research.
3:55
What's the point in turning a man gay against his will? Gay men still hold grudges. Some of them are actually quite intelligent. They know who to blame. Look at Matt Drudge.
What is this supposed to mean? You cant turn someone gay.
@@kia9585 According to the bible, God can - and did :) ooops!... there goes the Christian argument against homosexuality LOL
Professor pride to much hand gestures.
It's really hard to take the narrator/host of this video seriously, looking the way he does. That shirt was really not the best choice.
