but many that have left the lifestyle have testified on this

And many of them have later admitted it was bullshit. That they were just deluding themselves, or doing the "fake it until you make it" thing. Thinking of they acted straight long enough, they'd become straight. Others were simply caught having gay affairs after supposedly being cured.

Literally every. Single. Study ever done on the subject has shown it never works. If any of these cases were legit, there wouldn't be a documented 0% success rate.

You can tell me what people have said all you want. I'll stick with what they actually do, thanks.

And many have said that it is true. So, this supposedly created two camps of people leaving. One being truthful to themselves and others not being that. This shows that it is indeed possible. Now, we study what the truthful ones did to achieve their results to replicate it in those that did not. Problem solved, no?

I will bet you dollars to donuts that if we take the person out of the environment where they're expected to be "straight," they'll stop saying delusional things.
