What Dads Need To Understand About The Science of Same-Sex Attraction with Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, Jr.

This is a conversation most people aren't willing to have.

But it's important, and if we're going to be intellectually honest, we need to be able to ask questions, dig in to the data, and find out what's really going on in the issues of our age.

One of those issues is unwanted same-sex attraction.

It's no secret that society at large is pushing a "degendering" experiment, and it started decades ago with gay-affirming practices.

Instead of being able to help men who struggle with this - often due to trauma - states are even trying to BAN therapists from talking about it.

This may be the most honest conversation on this topic you've ever heard, and you'll learn about other resources to study further, if necessary.

Thanks to Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, Jr. for his work on this topic and his willingness to share the science and data behind this touchy topic.
