Zahn Gets Down With The Gays, Ex-Gays and Everyone In-Between

Paris Hilton wasn’t the only big draw last night on CNN.

Paula Zahn and her lisp spent an hour exploring the ins and outs of homosexuality on last night’s Paula Zahn Now. Like any good journo, Zahn took some time to explore that old nature v. nurture debate, changing opinion on the gays and scientific and moralistic missions to “cure” those who are bit bent.

Above, you’ll see a video featuring Exodus Alan Chambers (again) saying he’s not gay (although he’s not completely sure the ex-gay movement works), psychiatric testimony on the dangers of reparative therapy and opinions from a slew of experts, including The Advocate‘s always adorable Sean Kennedy.

Zahn also spent a bit looking at an old Colorado mining town called Trinidad: the so-called sex-change capital of the world. According to journo Thelma Gutierrez. there have been over 5,000 sex-change operations in Trinidad since 1969. Unfortunately Good As You, who sent us the Zahn videos, didn’t upload that particular segment. You can, however, read the surprising transcript here.
