And ignorance feeds misinformation, prejudice and finally bigotry. I grew up in a time when homosexuality was consdiered a crime and mental health problem. My ignorance and the ignorance of those around me created 22 years of unnecessary suffering. What I did to myself and others around me was well intentioned but that certainly didn&#039;t make it right. I devoted a chapter of my autobiography on the my 6 months in Australia&#039;s first live in ex-gay programs. It reveals the terrible results of well intentioned ignorance. <a href="http://gayambassador.blogspot.com/2008/06/chapter-7-rehab-with-twist-ex-gay.html" target="_blank">http://gayambassador.blogspot.com/2008/06/chapter...</a> Thank God in many circles people are becoming more informed.
