PFOX (Parents and Friends of Gays and Ex-Gays) provides outreach, education and support to gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgendered men, women and teens who are struggling with same sex attractions and want to change.
Ex-gayphobics refuse to respect that choice. Consequently, persons who formerly self-identified as gay but who now live out there hetersexual potential are reviled simply because they dare to exist!
PFOX parents recognize our children for the wonderful young men and women they are. PFOX families do not label children based on who they are attracted to -- feelings can and do change. PFOX families allow for differences of opinion; we do not place requirements on our children nor do they place them on us.
