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.
Pinned
With conversion therapy bans likely to be declared unconstitutional, states and their professional boards still have meaningful room to protect thepublic.

But they have to be careful to regulate professional conduct and informed consent, not ideological speech.

How?

It struck me a lot when I was watching 'Pray Away' on Netflix, about former gay members of an anti-gay rights, conversion therapy movement. I vacillated between feeling sympathy for them at how their self-hatred was used against them, and, also, thinking they should be in prison.

You say X causes harm and I say Y causes harm.

Why should your definition of harm trump mine?

Because of evidence.

We see that encouraging people to hate others because of their differences results in people hating others and then acting upon that hate. We see people create Conversion Therapy camps where children are beaten starved and are driven to suicide. We see rights get striped away.

Conversion therapy is any form of so-called treatment which attempts to change sexual orientation or reduce attraction to others of the same sex. No one should be told their identity is something that can be changed or cured. More: buff.ly/41b7oyV

So-called “conversion therapy” is not legitimate healthcare. Since 2017, Nevada has prohibited conversion therapy for minors. While state protections will remain regardless of the outcome of Chiles v. Salazar, we are committed to a future where conversion therapy is fully eradicated.

Oberlin advances conversion therapy ban, with hesitation.

After a federal appeals court stopped Michigan’s ban, similar legislation in Ohio cities could be in jeopardy.

Today is International Day to End Conversion Therapy — you can't pray or convert away the gay.

These methods of indoctrination and oppression are dangerously harmful; we must ban conversion therapy entirely.

For more on this, watch "Pray Away" on Netflix or "Conversion" on Tubi, Xumo, and Sling.
