California is the first state to ban gay reparative therapy - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Lambeth;36190632]You know this is straight up fascist shit, right?[/QUOTE] I don't think you know what fascism means.

These centres sound like Scientology retreats.

[QUOTE=Capitulazyguy;36206572]I don't think you understand the concept of letting people do what they want to do. It is not necessarily going to lead to them doing what you want them to do.[/QUOTE] Should companies be able to make false claims in advertising?

[QUOTE=Lankist;36212874]i dont think you understand that terrible parents force their children to attend these sorts of places, which is tantamount to child abuse.[/QUOTE] It doesn't even matter if it's an adult going of their own "free will". The fact that these programs advertise themselves as therapy is misleading and outright wrong. It's in the same vein as phony hypnotherapists saying they can enlarge your penis or get rid of cancer through hypnosis. It's preposterous and shouldn't be allowed in this day and age.

[QUOTE=Lankist;36212874]i dont think you understand that terrible parents force their children to attend these sorts of places, which is tantamount to child abuse.[/QUOTE] Then ban that, if you must.

[QUOTE=PowerBall v1;36189931]or how about uh LETTING PEOPLE DO WHAT THEY WANT TO [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Troll" - Lithifold))[/highlight][/QUOTE] I know im late on this but i REALLY think you dont know what "Reparative therapy" means. Also, good on them, the fact that these places exist amazes me.

It's also convincing homosexuals that what they are is an extremely bad thing/a mental disorder. I don't think you understand the concept of homosexuality.

Actually, no you don't, because you wouldn't be saying ignorant shit like that.

I guess. [QUOTE=Capitulazyguy;36215674]Then ban that, if you must.[/QUOTE] Umm no how about we allow allow rape unquestioned, theft to go unseen, corporate greed to strive, big businesses to rule the government, religions to control the state, and confused people to be brainwashed as well? It's not only something done to kids you know. You're treating something genetic as if it were a disorder, like OCD, alcoholism, or schizophrenia, but with force. There's nothing good in that unless you're a fascist. There's no reason to control people in such a serious way. That's like treating alcoholism is if it were a disease, like cancer, the flu, pink eye, by giving an alcoholic drugs.
