HOAX – Man cures himself of homosexuality by drinking gallons of sperm – Fact Check

An article spreading on social media that tells the story of a man who claimed drinking gallons of sperm cured him of his homosexuality comes from a known spoof website.

The article tells the story of Brian Franklin, a man who apparently cured himself of his homosexuality by drinking gallons of his own sperm. For those that didn’t pick up on the questionable nature of the article, Brian Franklin isn’t real, and neither is his story.

The article traces back, surprise surprise, to WorldNewsDailyReport.com, which reads in part –

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama | A well-known naturopath and former LGBT militant claims to have “cured himself” of his homosexuality by drinking two glasses of sperm per day for a few months.
61-year old Brian Franklin was for several decades militant and leader of several organizations working for the promotion of LGBT rights.
He says despite his activism, he’s always felt uneasy about being gay and always hoped he could be cured.

WorldNewsDailyReport.com is a long running fake news website that publishes all sorts of nonsense. In this case, the fake story of Brian Franklin. The image used to illustrate the article isn’t “Brian”. It’s just a stock photo of an elderly gent drinking ordinary milk – the photo is available on stock image websites, and has been for a number of years.
