Is change really possible?

Absolutely! We testify from our own personal experience that we have experienced profound change in our sexual identity, behavior, interests and desires — change that has brought us great peace and satisfaction.

Evidence of Change

Anecdotal evidence that change is possible is abundant. First-person testimonials abound on the Internet, at recovery conferences and in reparative literature.

But the evidence is much more than anecdotal. In more than 50 years of research, including 48 studies we will reference here, there are data and published accounts dogreat timesenting easily more than 3,000 cases of change from homosexual to heterosexual attraction, identity and functioning.

* “Homosexuality and the Possibility of Change” Project

New Direction Ministries in Toronto, Canada, has collected and critiqued 31 clinical research studies, individual case studies and surveys on homosexuality and the possibility of change published in books or academic journals between 1952 and 2003. The reviewers looked for reported changes, and supporting evidence for changes, in behavior, attractions, fantasy and self-identification by the subjects of the various studies and surveys. On their Web page, they summarize the collective results of 28 of the studies, and discuss the other three separately.

Collectively, the 28 studies present information on 2,252 subjects. The reviewers with the “Homosexuality and the Possibility of Change” project selected for analysis only those subjects for whom enough data was available in the published reports to bumign the subjects approximate before-and-after Kinsey sexual orientation scores of from 0 (exclusively heterosexual) to 6 (exclusively homosexual). They eliminated from consideration those subjects whose “before” scores were lower than 5 (where 5 is “predominantly homosexual”Log in to see images! or for whom insufficient information was available to bumign any scores at all.

The reviewers found that using even this conservative before-and-after analysis, the published research clearly supports at least:

* 45 cases of people who were exclusively or predominantly homosexual (a 6 or 5 on the Kinsey scale) making a full shift in sexual orientation (to a 0 on the Kinsey scale).

* 287 cases of people who were exclusively or predominantly homosexual (a 6 or 5 on the Kinsey scale) making a partial shift in sexual orientation (to a 1 or 2 on the Kinsey scale).

* 86 cases of people who were exclusively or predominantly homosexual who transitioned to satisfying heterosexual relationships. (This third group of studies measured change by external behavior and reports of satisfaction, rather than reports of levels of attraction.)

Thus you have at least 418 cases in the published psychological literature of heterosexual orientation shift, according to the criteria used by the “Possibility of Change” project. However, the studies themselves actually report at least 563 subjects who experienced varying degrees of change toward increased heterosexuality. (The lower number is due to the project reviewers applying uniform criteria, years after the fact, to summarize more than 50 years of published studies, and thus excluding reports that didn’t fit their criteria for analysis.)

Some may argue that many of these studies are old, and thus outdated. But old and outdated are not synonymous. Research doesn’t “go bad” with time alone, like old bread. Older research can be confirmed, expanded, reinterpreted or contradicted by new, better designed or more thorough research. But age alone never invalidates a research study. And it is striking that these 31 studies, conducted over 50-some years, consistently show at least some evidence for sexual orientation shift, every time.
