Governor Ralph Northam has signed legislation that would ban gay conversion therapy on minors in Virginia.

 

Conversion therapy, which has been discredited as a practice by multiple major medical associations, attempts to forcibly change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity through intensive counseling.

Great news! Now we just need a federal ban.

 

Conversion therapy is emotional abuse, and in some cases physical abuse as well. Forcing a minor to undergo that is child. I’ve talked to a couple of people who’ve undergone it, one was forced as a child. Their stories are heartbreaking.
