ShameSex Attraction Survivors’ Stories of Conversion Therapy

<p><i>We are survivors. </i><br><br><i>We were subjected to dehumanizing practices by people who sought our erasure.</i><br><br><i>We believe telling our stories is both powerful and political. </i><br><br>This edited collection brings together the experiences of those who have been subjected to queer conversion therapy - it is an effort to expose conversion practices for what they are - pseudoscientific, bogus, ineffective, and wildly traumatic - and to recognise and listen to survivors. With contributions from Gregory Elsasser-Chavez, Chaim Levin, Lexie Bean, Syre Klenke, and many more from across the LGBTQ+ spectrum - this is an attempt to ensure that what happened within these pages cannot - and will not - happen to future generations.</p>
