It’s a classically conservative position to let freaks do whatever they want to themselves.

Umm... No.

That's a classically libertarian position. There's a difference.

No, it’s the classical conservative position.

(Ironically known as “classically liberal” back in the late 1700s.)

It’s only since 1950s or so has the “conservative” (as opposed to “classic conservative”) position morphed into a imposing-moralistic position.
