Summary: The Truth Comes Out of the Closet
Comment: Don't make any assumptions one way or another until you actually read this book. If you're looking for help for yourself or trying to understand a loved one, get a copy. If you're gay and loving it, get a copy anyway and see for yourself if this guy's for real.
Like everybody else, I heard and believed reports in the press about the "homosexuality is genetic" studies. But did you know that the authors of those studies ALL backed away from their findings after the studies were found to be flawed? The proof's right there in quotes Cohen draws from reputable publications like Newsweek, Discover and Scientific America. Cohen himself weighs in on the problems with the studies and offers concrete insights into the real reasons why he and others have been drawn to the gay and lesbian lifestyles.
As a counselor, I'm thrilled that this is the complete package I've been looking for. Besides the thorough and sensible examination of homosexuality's real causes, the book has clear, do-able instructions for the difficult journey out of homosexuality if someone chooses to leave it.
Cohen and others he quotes are wildly courageous in taking on this controversial subject, revealing their souls and hurts of the past in the hope of being able to help others who feel trapped in a life they don't want.
I've seen this guy on national tv interviews and even when his opponents are shouting personal attacks, he maintains his dignity, sincerity and sense of humor in presenting his personal experience, observations and objective facts he's unearthed on the topic.
This book is pure logic, presented lovingly. Regardless of where you stand on this issue, this is a smart read.

Summary: Aversion Therapy... righttt
Comment: This book is a sham[.] ... Sure people can be confused about their sexuality and then decide they're not hetero, but not for most gay people.
Cohen is part of the reason many gay people aren't happy and feel shunned by society and church. He's doing a diservice to the community in general by publishing such blatently biased material. I wish there were an option for 0 stars. I would have picked it.
Rating: 1
Summary: I have a better book
Comment: Wayne Besen has met Richard Cohen too, and has done his homework on this conversion therapy. It's all a sham, Cohen should be ashamed of himself. He wants you to believe homosexuality is caused by distance from your same-gender parent, which it is not. No reputable therapist believes that anymore. Read Anything but Straight instead if you want the real "straight" scoop on conversion. I'd have rated 0 stars if I could.
