Today, I had to tell the third guy that my mother set me up with that it wasn't him, it's me. Apparently my mother thinks if she sets me up with enough guys, I will "date the gay out". FML

You need to tell her to her face that she needs to stop. It's completely disrespectful to not only you but also to the people she is setting you up with. She won't change until you confront her.

I'm sorry your mother can't accept you for who you are, I have the same problem. :(

Is your mom a Christian?

She may well consider herself to be one. Other people who consider themselves to be Christian may well disagee with her as to whether her behaviour is christian.

Are you sure you haven't tried hard enough to be straight? (I'm kidding.)

According to her logic does that mean that if I keep going on bad dates with men that I'll eventually end up dating the heterosexuality out of myself and end up gay?

No, her logic makes sense when the guy sees what he's missing out on he'll stop fake being gay and be a normal straight person.

I agree what your mother is doing is both stupid and disrespectful both to OP and to the person she set her up with. But I have a question - Why are you going along with the charade and actually going out with the hapless dates? ( I assume that is the correct interpretation of what you described.) Just say no each time - You will be doing everyone a favor in the long run.

If for some reason you can't say no, just tell Mommy Dearest that it makes you realise that you like women more every time she sets you up with a man. If it's having the opposite effect she'll have to give up this asinine plan.

That is tantamount to a mother consistently "fixing up" their strait child with same-gender-identifying people. When my niece's daughter came out to her my niece asked "well, are you still vegetarian?" Because that's what's important: who you are - aside from your sexuality - the character and the human that you are. Stay strong and know that you are supported by people you may never meet.

This FML post confirmed that homophobia is international.
