Dr. John DeCecco (pronounced de-CHECK-o) is a gay psychologist, the director of the Center for Research and Education in Sexuality at San Francisco State University.
He is also the editor of the Journal of Homosexuality. DeCecco calls himself ?gay? but insists that such attractions are a changeable ?preference,? not an orientation.
DeCecco says that he and other experts in human sexuality have observed such variability throughout individuals? lives that they could not possibly be born one way, unable to change.
In his book, If You Seduce A Straight Person, Can You Make Them Gay?, DeCecco and other scientists answer this question with an unequivocal ?Yes, you can!? and present scientific evidence for their conclusion.
One such man who was carefully studied, identified by the code name ?D? had heterosexual feelings, fantasies, dreams and sex until age 27 at which time he experimented sexually with a gay man. By four years later, his behavior, feelings, fantasies and dreams were almost exclusively homosexual.
The scientific conclusion reached for such evidence: ?shows that life-long, exclusive homosexuality, as articulated by gay rhetoric, is more a statement about the culture in which it occurs than the ?essence? of homosexuality. (p. 125)
The idea that people are born one way and cannot change is flatly wrong.
As this gay scientist?Dr. DeCecco?says, this born-gay, immutable characteristic idea is just ?gay and lesbian politics? and is aimed at achieving gay rights.
DeCecco?s book: If You Seduce a Straight Person, Can you Make Them Gay is published by Harrington Park Press in New York. It was published in 1993.
