Please ban this process
 

I am an out gay man and have dated men who were subject to this terrible system. Please ban this immediately. It has been a generation since the field of psychology has come to the consensus that being gay is not a mental health issue. It’s time now for the regulatory environment to reflect this as well. I’ve had too many experiences with men who were broken by this process and left with years of shame and heartache. Please make them the last generation to live with this horror.
