By the way, as mentioned in my testimony, my favourite titles for Our Lady are, Mother of God, Our Lady of Fatima, and Our Lady of Sorrows. I was wondering if any of you have any favourite titles for Our Lady?
One the things that the ex-gay man recommended to males struggling with same-sex attraction, was devotion to St. Joseph, because the vast majority of men who suffer with same-sex attraction, developed their attractions from bad relationships with their fathers.
Yeah,I've heard of it before, but this guy really drove it home for me by the examples he provided, and because he was able to emphasize it for me. (Although his own same-sex attraction didn't stem from a bad relationship with his father, it stemmed from being being bullied at school, and being exposed to porn at an early age.)The first time I heard of decline of fatherhood as the cause of same sex attraction was from a speech by Sr Jane Dominic.

Usually, but it's more complicated than that. As mentioned in other threads, there are certain preconditions a child must have in order to react the way he or she will when the event(s) hit, and develop same-sex attraction. These events can be very traumatic or very subtle.Do you think that there are certain things in childhood that causes homosexuality? The reason I am asking is it seems from your posts that you think so.

There are however, cases of teens and young adults developing homosexuality through experimenting and/or getting hooked on pornography, and it getting carried away from there.
We don't really know for sure, but there's probably a broad range types of preconditions, from genetic to environmental.What type of preconditions?

I love to pray to Mary. Praying to her soothes me. She is spiritually beautiful and makes me feel at peace to know she is looking after me. I pray to Mary every day, multiple times a day. Mary gives me peace in my soul and helps me forgive my torturers. Mary helps my soul stay soft. Mary protects me from evil.How Marian are you in your Catholicism? I'll give my testimony later in the thread if it happens to be a active thread.
Do you walk with her, talk to her, venerate her and bless her or do you have a hard time embracing her as your mother?
Please share your life with Mary with OBOB or for some reason your lack of Marian piety.
