Christopher Yuan
From Conservapedia
Christopher Yuan is the son of Chinese immigrants into US who at an early age, when exposed to pornography at the friend’s house, discovered that he experiences same-sex attractions. Despite the struggle of his mother, who hoped to control the situation, the lives of both were spiraling out of control and Christopher, submitting himself to popular misbelief that he was ‘born gay’, gradually entered the homosexual lifestyle. Nevertheless, later, when diagnosed as HIV positive, he has changed the interpretation of his same-sex attractions and now considers homosexuality as stemming from legitimate need and natural desire for intimacy fulfilled in an illegitimate way after the normal feeling has been distorted.[1][2][3]

That's when he started thinking: Maybe he was different. Those images just awoke something in me that I didn't know was there but I also noticed that I was attracted by images of both men and women. He decided to keep his feelings secret with hope they will go away, but they didn't. All these feelings were kind of bubbling up in me and I was kind of keeping them held down. ...”

That really gave me a distorted view of what sexuality is... it was at that point that I realized that there was this attraction that I didn't really understand to both sexes ...
