What a sad story.I have a nephew who is gay, when he was young it was pretty obvious that he was going to be. He acted way more like a little girl than a boy.
At any rate - his father I think tried to convince himself that he could "turn him". He bought him an electric guitar, motorcycle, t-shirts with male-oriented subject matter - etc. etc. He constantly rode the boy when he was a teenager about getting a girlfriend, teasing him (in a rather ugly way) about acting like a girl..."be a man" etc.
That was years ago.
The boy is now 25. He is a good kid and he has nothing to do with his Dad. They don't even talk.
I think this would be the result of "conversion therapy".
I really feel bad for the father.
He really must have loved his son to have tried so hard to help him.
