McKrae Game, a former top conversion therapy leader who practiced for over 20 years, not only denounced conversion therapy but also came out as gay in 2019. Game wrote in a public post, ""Promoting the triadic model that blamed parents and conversion or prayer therapy, that made many people believe that their orientation was wrong, bad, sinful, evil, and worse that they could change was absolutely harmful."
This harm can absolutely be prevented if lawmakers would do the right thing and ban conversion therapy. We need to uplift and support the LGBT community. There is nothing wrong with loving someone of the same sex. It's deeply personal to that individual and forcibly trying to change that person - to "convert" - is unethical and disturbing.
