Supression of Physician's Free Speech Rights Regarding Unwanted sexual Desires
 

Not all teenagers going through puberty have genuine sexual desires inherent in the opposite sex.  Some may be confused about what they occassionally feel/experience and need help separating their thoughts.  Some may therefore obtain help through counselling, others may not.  Doctors should not be prevented from helping them sort out real/genuine feelings from the occassional feelings which may be irrelavent.
