About this listen
Being Gay: Nature, Nurture or Both?
- Are people born gay? Is it an inborn trait, acquired condition, or both?
- Scientists are still investigating why some people are gay while others are straight.
- The controversy continues.
Some chose to live a gay life. Others seek to explore the possibility of resolving their unwanted homosexual desires. Cohen believes in tolerance, diversity, and equality for all views of sexuality.
In Being Gay, Richard Cohen discusses the science of sexuality and why some may develop homosexual feelings, while others do not. Cohen affirms the individual’s right of self-determination - to embrace their homosexuality and live a gay life, or explore a different path for change. It is a human rights issue - free to love and be loved by whomever we choose.
- Learn about potential causes of homosexual feelings: Nature and nurture.
- Discover a four-stage plan to resolve past issues and fulfill unmet love needs.
- Find simple and effective tools to help you achieve your dreams
Richard Cohen, M.A., is a psychotherapist, educator, and author of five books. He is an expert in the field of Sexual Orientation Therapy and has trained over 6,000 therapists and ministry leaders worldwide. Having lived a gay life, Cohen knows how it feels from the inside out. He went through his own healing journey to fulfill his dreams. Cohen and his wife have been married for 40 years and they have three adult children. As a psychotherapist, he has helped thousands of men and women achieve their hopes and aspirations.

Story
When a parent singles out a child for special privileges and attention, that child is often unaware that the relationship is unhealthy - even incestuous. As adults, these children struggle to feel validated, because while they have not been directly abused, they feel a sense of violation and crossed boundaries - usually done in the name of 'love' and 'caring'. The parent's love feels more confining than freeing, more demanding than giving, more intrusive than nurturing. Yet these children suffer from what psychologist Kenneth Adams calls The Silent Seduction.

Kristin Neff changed how we talk about self-care with her enormously popular first book, Self-Compassion. Now, 10 years and many studies later, she expands her body of work to explore a brand-new take on self-compassion. Although kindness and self-acceptance allow us to be with ourselves as we are, in all our glorious imperfection, the desire to alleviate suffering at the heart of this mindset isn't always gentle, sometimes it's fierce.

The book is a waste if time.
Is this author for real. He starts out that sexuality can be changed. once I got to the part that homosexuality could be caused by an unfulfilled relationship with your father or and overprotective mother I had to stop listening any further. Pure trash.
