Conversion Therapy is unnecessary, and at times inhumane. Here is a small list of “treatments” that are done to people who are FORCED to undergo go conversion therapy:
— ice-pick lobotomies
—chemical castration with hormonal treatment
—aversive treatments, such as "the application of electric shock to the hands and/or genitals"; "nausea-inducing drugs ... administered simultaneously with the presentation of homoerotic stimuli";
—masturbatory reconditioning
—spiritual interventions such as "prayer and group support and pressure.”
10 out of 10 times these treatments are unsuccessful and are considered torture.
