Reminder: Stanford: Ted Cox: What I learned at Straight Camp @ Mon Apr 19 7pm - 8pm (Queer Things)

Stanford: Ted Cox: What I learned at Straight Camp

http://aha.stanford.edu/?p=1587

Where: Main Quad 320-105 (Geology Corner)

We're thrilled to partner with the Queer/Straight Alliance to host Ted Cox for his talk, "What I learned at Straight Camp", an examination into gay-to-straight conversion programs.

Ted Cox is a journalist who went undercover to
three "therapy" programs geared toward turning
homosexual men and women toward a straight
lifestyle. As a non-religious man who grew up in
the Mormon church, he was interested in "ex-gay"
programs as intersections of "religion, subculture,
sex, and equal rights."

Cox has used this experience to develop a lecture
that sheds light on the experiences of people who
try to change their sexual orientation, and the
people who are compelled to change them.
