When did she ever argued for conversion therapy? All I’ve seen is that she was against transitioning prepubescent children as most children that exhibit gender dysphoria grow out of it.
- erentz 8y agoYeah, quite the opposite it appears she is against conversion therapy. It looks the parent poster is committing a perfect example of the kinds of things Quillette and the IDW are arguing against.

- erentz 8y agoIn that article she is not supporting conversion therapy. She states “The most recent scientific research shows that sexual orientation is immutable and there is no evidence to suggest it can be changed through conversion therapy or otherwise.“ She is arguing against bans that she says “incorrectly conflate sexual orientation with gender identity”. So from reading that article she thinks it shouldn’t be illegal to offer for example a female child who is attracted to girls, and who likes doing activities everyone labels as “boy” interests, therapy that helps them accept they are a just girl who happens to like other girls, and happens to like what society incorrectly labels “boys things”.
- klyrs 8y ago> ...therapy that helps them accept they are a just girl... ... yes, that is called conversion therapy.
