This approach is based on such spurious assumptions, bad psychology, doubtful morals, and bad medicine that it not only does harm to individuals with these predispositions but also makes Virginia a laughing stock and thus harms the state's economic development and thus employment opportunities for its citizens.  The sooner this "practice" of attempted "conversion" is dropped, the better off all citizens of the state will be even if they are so uninformed that they do not believe it.
