According to his online testimony, Anthony Falzarano was molested by an older brother at age 12. He became a male prostitute, eventually catering to closeted antigay conservatives such as Roy Cohn. On the basis of his years of prostitution and anonymous sex, Falzarano claims to understand “gay living.”
Falzarano founded Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays in 1996 with help from the Family Research Council. He was ousted from PFOX in mid-1999. He accused the religious right of exploiting the exgay movement and failing to support the movement financially.
Falzarano then founded Parents and Friends Christian Ministries and currently serves as the group’s national director.
After forming PFM, Falzarano later moved from the Falls Church, Virginia, area (suburban Washington, D.C.) to Steubenville, Ohio.
In 2003, as owner of an antique store and three other downtown Steubenville buildings, he organized a local business revolt against the Steubenville-area chamber of commerce.
At the antique store, he became known as a Christian employer of some down-and-out folks.
He worked for the Bush campaign in Ohio in late 2004.
He removed his 17-year-old son Carter from Summit Christian School in Palm Beach County, Florida, in March 2005.
Wow, so…Falzarano became a prostitute…
amazing that he could indict homosexuals for that alone. As if he couldn’t have found something else to do.
Actress Terri Hatcher has just revealed being raped repeatedly by an uncle.
She’s just come forward now because another girl her uncle raped committed suicide.
Same thing happened to Maya Angelou. Who didn’t speak for five years. Can you imagine that beautiful speaking voice never being heard?
Some people will respond differently to early abuse, some can be quite accomplished despite it.
I just don’t appreciate Falzarano blaming gay people.
Why are girls getting such short shrift when it comes to discussions on sexual predators?
The Vatican wants to come after just the homosexual priests as if females were never victims.
Says a lot about the church’s value, or lack of it, of females.
If a young male is sexually attacked by another male, people get hysterical.
Why are gay male school teachers getting all the scrutiny as if hetero men and women aren’t predatory on their students or neighbor’s kids don’t exist as well?
Didn’t a 37 year old woman just marry her son’s best friend who was only 15 and get pregnant by him?
Predators are predators and we must be careful and understand ALL aspects of immature and repressed or aggressive sexuality potentially in everyone.
This is so frustrating for me. I can tell you from experience with LAPD that girls and women make up such a huge percentage of victims from presumably straight males.
Basically it’s about vulnerability and power.
Females of all ages most easily fit that category, then very young males.
