Text from the HB1598 bill...

Electroshock, Electroconvulsive, Touching, Pornography, Vomit-Induction...this is actually considered "Therapy"?!?

I knew the so called "anti-gay" therapy was controversial but I did not realize that it was pulled straight out of the Inquisition.

OMG...

"Aversion therapy” means any counseling by a mental health provider that exposes or asks a client or patient to undergo physical pain, such as electroshock or electroconvulsive therapy, touch therapy, pornography exposure or vomit-induction therapy, in order to change sexual behaviors or gender-identity expressions and/or to eliminate or reduce sexual or romantic attractions or feelings toward individuals of the same sex."

The sponsor of this bill is a twisted individual.
