Clinton: "End conversion therapy"

In an attempt to woo Florida’s LGBT voters, Hillary Clinton attended a Community for Unity rally at a gay nightclub in Wilton Manors, Florida.

...

“This election will determine whether we continue the progress we’ve made or let it be ripped away,” Clinton said. “We know Trump has promised that he’ll appoint Supreme Court justices who will overturn marriage equality and that he will repeal President Obama’s executive actions to protect LGBT people from discrimination.”

“Know we will then be able to protect LGBT Americans from discrimination in all aspects of our lives,” she continued. “We will work together to achieve an AIDS-free generation. We will take on homelessness, bullying and violence, particularly youth homelessness, which disproportionately hurts LGBT kids. And we’re going to end the harmful practice of so-called conversion therapy.”

Earlier this month, she penned a moving op-ed for Philadelphia Gay News in which she vowed to combat workplace discrimination and blasted Mike Pence’s anti-LGBT track record as Governor of Indiana. The candidate has also held several LGBT campaign events with gay icon Cher.

I couldn't imagine the horror of conversion therapy. Mostly because people actually think you can change, and eventually, you might even think you can.

The conversion therapy scene from AHS Asylum was one of the most disturbing things I've seen because it still happens. There are countries where I can be KILLED for being a lesbian. Being a lesbian is a part of me just as much as my red hair is. Conversion therapy is just sick and barbaric on so many levels. Humans are supposed to be the most intelligent species but when things like this still go on, I question that theory. Remember we need a warning label on the back of a soap bottle telling us to call poison control if we ingest the soap. Humans aren't that intelligent after all hahaha

I love you monsters. I'd be unfixably broken without you

Exactly humans are supposed to be the most intelligent species but the fact that conversion therapy still exists makes me question that claim.

Humans are really smart, it's just that sometimes people get lazy or are willfully uninformed.

Trump and Pence support conversion therapy right? What is the process like? I've heard that electric shock therapy is involved right?

If you've seen AHS Asylum there's a conversion therapy scene in there. Basically in a nutshell, the brain is being trained to find whatever their "trigger" is unpleasureable. For example, if someone was gay, they would be shown pictures of nude men and then a negative consequence (such as an electric shock or even apomorphine ,which induces vomiting,) so the brain is being "re-trained" to find the pics of nude men unpleasureable. What people don't realize is electric shock therapy causes brain damage. These people become shells of their former selves all because somebody thought there was something "wrong" with them. It's quite sad really.

I was always taught I could do whatever I wanted to if I put my mind to it! :emma:
