AHA!@Stanford is 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.
Free and open to the public.
