What do you think those institutions are? Do you really believe that gay kids can be converted into being straight? Here's some more reading about Mike Pence and human rights:

And here is a survivor recounting what it is like to be "provide[d] assistance to ... change their sexual behavior."

Woah there. All I did is point out that you're lying about Mr. Pence supporting "electrocution therapy" in particular. Now you're accusing me of supporting gay conversion therapy.

Your tactic of falsely smearing and impugning the reputation of everyone that you disagree with is frankly disgusting.

And your homophobia and defense of Mike Pence despite his public support of homophobia is abhorrent. It appears we are at an impasse.

I don't believe in gay conversion therapy and actually support gay marriage, but I shouldn't even need to say that because it's not relevant to this discussion. The value that I'm advocating for here is honesty and good faith debate.
