Conversion therapies, also known as conversion practices, are efforts to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity. These practices are not just harmful, they do the opposite of what they claim.

Omg. I just heard someone 'say' something about sending gay kids to Christian schools to change their orientation.

This will not change their sexual orientation. It will probably cause them to become an atheist. And have serious anger issues.

So...good luck with that.

Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"

Keir Starmer has effectively started a leadership challenge against himself. To have entered into this kind of madhouse Westminster squabbling so soon after an election is simply unforgivable.

Leelah Alcorn's parents sent her to conversion therapy, cut her off from her support network and buried her under her deadname.

The idea that parents know their kids best - and put their kids first - is a charming myth that no LGBTQ person would fall for.

Never forget that Ross Douthat subjected Michael Barbaro to soft conversion therapy, with great success

It was no great loss to the gay community—addition by subtraction, even—but it really makes ya wonder about Barbaro's intelligence level if a man as unpersuasive as Douthat could pull that off
josie.zone 🏳️‍⚧️ Josephine Riesman 🕎 @josie.zone · Jul 5
Barbaro hasn't said it in so many words, but you can read between the fucking lines here:
Michael Barbaro, the Times podcaster, has been a close friend of Douthat’s since childhood—he told me that he was Douthat’s “sidekick”—and was the best man at his wedding. In 2015, Douthat wrote a piece critical of the Supreme Court’s decision to legalize gay marriage, expressing concern that it reflected a “more relaxed view of marriage’s importance.” The two men were now colleagues, but they had drifted slightly apart over the years. And Barbaro was married to a man. Barbaro said, “We hadn’t been in touch that much, but Ross reached out to me to say, ‘I’m about to publish a column in which I come out against same-sex marriage, and I want you to know that it didn’t come to me easily, and that it’s something I know may be sensitive to you. And, as somebody I care about, I want you to understand it, and I don’t want you to read about it in my column without us talking about it.’ ” Barbaro told me that he appreciated the note, which surprised me. I said that some people might have been more, rather than less, angry that the friend taking such a position saw that the issue went beyond abstraction. “I was wounded by the position he took on a personal level. How could I not be?” Barbaro said. “But it was meaningfully tempered by the reality that I knew where he was coming from, and that he had gone to the trouble to reach out to me.” Barbaro and his husband later divorced; when we spoke, he was on vacation with his wife and two children. “I’ve been on a long journey that I know Ross generally approves of,” he said. “But, although I didn’t do it for him, it’s very funny, as I have had children I can just sense his glee. It’s no secret that he wants people to have children and to enter into monogamous heterosexual relationships.” Barbaro let out a laugh. “And that wasn’t my plan, but I have sensed his joy at that outcome.”

Democrats' problem isn't that they want to solve political division, it's that they're only willing to move right to do it. There's zero motivation to move anybody left or change any minds on very popular issues or simply low-education issues like trans rights.
michaelhobbes.bsky.social Michael Hobbes @michaelhobbes.bsky.social · 12d
I will never understand the pundit obsession with getting Democrats to solve "political division."

Not only is this what they're already doing, but Klein admits that Republicans will never do the same. So elections will remain constant GOP smears and simping Democratic promises of bipartisanship.
Ezra Klein This Is the Way You Beat Trump — and Trumpism I saw a poll a few weeks ago that struck me. It was from The New York Times and Siena University. It asked Americans what they thought the top problem facing the country was. No. 1 was the economy. That was what I expected. But No. 2 wasn’t immigration or inflation or democracy or climate change or even Trump. It was political division. In that same poll, 64 percent of the country said we’re too divided to solve our problems. They’re not wrong. I hear it when Trump says, “I hate my opponent and I don’t want the best for them.” When I hear that, I hear something scary, but I also hear an opening, an opportunity: In the end, most Americans want America to work. They know we disagree with one another. They don’t want us to hate one another.
