Ex-gay? You must be joking...

The ex-gay movement is known for many things: pain, confusion, misinformation and self-denial. It is not usually the cause of much laughter, neither for those caught on the inside nor for us watching from the outside. But there are always little glimpses of a rainbow behind every gray cloud.

ThisJustIn.com has created the perfect video parody of a commercial promoting the virtues of the ex-gay lifestyle. It hits the mark on so many levels, although anyone unable to catch the subtlety of much of the joke will, hopefully, get it in the end... well, we mean, will understand it when it's finished.

The second video you'll just have to figure out for yourselves. Some things have to be seen to be believed.

If this is the case, then everyone we know is ex-gay... NOT!
