Exactly!
This is talking about becoming exgay
And this might again be part of the cited reasoning in some future USSC decision. It seems that when it comes to this, states can’t help but BE poopy heads about it.
They should ban it both ways until person is 21.
Gays say they are born that way.
If that’s true, then one day they will discover the gay gene.
If that happens, then one day your doctor will not only be able to tell you whether your pre-born baby is a boy or a girl, but also whether your bundle of joy will be straight of gay.
So ....
In NH and these other states, at that point it’ll be okay to kill (abort) your pre-born gay baby (something Christians wouldn’t do, but atheists or Muslims might), but illegal to let it be born and then try to nurture out the gay nature of your child.
Heck, it could be a Seinfeld episode:
Lady: Jerry, my baby is going to be gay! I know that shouldn’t bother me ... but I want to be a grandmother one day and I don’t want another kid.
Jerry: OK, so it’s not too late to end it, and you could start over, try again, and maybe next time it won’t be gay ... not that there’s anything wrong with that.
unconstitutional.
People should be allowed to be who they are or who they want to be
No. Learn to obey.
Who is the state to tell people they cant have that option?
The State.
Next question, please?
Yup
“Straight” from PsychologyToday.com:
First published in 1968, DSM-II (the American classiifcation of mental disorders) listed homosexuality as a mental disorder. In this, the DSM followed in a long tradition in medicine and psychiatry, which in the 19th century appropriated homosexuality from the Church and, in an élan of enlightenment, transformed it from sin to mental disorder.
In 1973, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) asked all members attending its convention to vote on whether they believed homosexuality to be a mental disorder. 5,854 psychiatrists voted to remove homosexuality from the DSM, and 3,810 to retain it.

The APA then compromised, removing homosexuality from the DSM but replacing it, in effect, with “sexual orientation disturbance” for people “in conflict with” their sexual orientation. Not until 1987 did homosexuality completely fall out of the DSM.
Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) only removed homosexuality from its ICD classification with the publication of ICD-10 in 1992, although ICD-10 still carries the construct of “ego-dystonic sexual orientation”. In this condition, the person is not in doubt about his or her sexual preference, but “wishes it were different because of associated psychological and behavioural disorders”.
The evolution of the status of homosexuality in the classifications of mental disorders highlights that concepts of mental disorder can be rapidly evolving social constructs that change as society changes. Today, the standard of psychotherapy in the U.S. and Europe is gay affirmative psychotherapy, which encourages gay people to accept their sexual orientation.

yes i see, thanks very much !
(do you think many people change over? i guess some do?)

fhc
The number of former homosexuals is very large.
Sorry gov, homosexuality is already “psychological harm”.

OK .. great! thanks
Did you expect something else from a state that went from very conservative to full blown communist?
Thanks for the info. I wasn’t sure about the success rate. I agree with what you said.
Sununu and Romney were like so close. MA and NH are bordering states as you might figure.
What gives anyone the right to take away from someone that wants
to be free from their homosexual urges, any help they might want?
It makes no sense.
The Sununus were always RINOS, patrons of David Souter.
