The challenged law forbids licensed therapists there from performing conversion therapy, which it defines to include “efforts to change behaviors or gender expressions, or to eliminate or reduce sexual or romantic attractions or feelings toward individuals of the same sex.”

Gee, now I'm wondering if anyone's tried Aromantic conversion therapy. If not, I should shut up so don't give anyone ideas.
