Just a heads-up for everyone in the EU, there currently is a petition going until the 17th to get the EU to ban conversion therapy. The petition still needs massive numbers of supporters, so it is likely to fail. Still, I wanted to share with you an easy method to support a more inclusive EU!

    Signed it, but I wonder how much of an actual problem is it in the EU. Whenever I hear of conversion therapy, it’s usually from within US.

      The way things are going, I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes a thing in e.g. Italy - their abortion access certainly seems to diminish. Frankly, I think most EU countries have at least a small amount of religious zealots who would do conversation therapy if we let them.
