Can Sexual Orientation Really Change? Scientist Explain The Data

What does the research actually say about LGBT identity, fluidity, and change? Dr Paul Sullins has spent years analysing the largest public health and sexuality datasets in the world — and what he discovered has sparked global controversy. Some of his findings were welcomed. Others were rejected, challenged, or even shut down.

In this episode of the Love Questions Podcast, we dive into the science behind sexual orientation, identity development, desistance, LGBT wellbeing, and why certain data becomes “too dangerous” for public discussion.

This conversation is not political commentary — it’s an exploration of evidence, lived experience, and questions many people are afraid to ask. Whether you’re LGBT, questioning, Christian, ex-LGBT, affirming, or simply trying to understand the discussion, this episode gives space for nuance, science, and honest enquiry.
