JF2 -“It is true that the AMA’s policy manual simply states that they are opposed to conversion therapy, without giving a reason why or directly stating there that the therapy does not work. However, if you look at other materials and statements produced by the AMA, it is patently obvious that their stance is that the therapy is ineffective, and has even been shown to be damaging and harmful”
I actually wasted my time and Googled it!
One of the things that came up is this topic in the CR. Yay us!
The other thing that came up was an article from AMA Journal of Ethics:
“5]. A comprehensive review of the evidence about conversion therapy in 2007 by the American Psychological Association concluded that there was no evidence showing that SOCE had any impact on adult sexual orientation or gender identity and that these therapies were often based on developmental theories with questionable validity [6]. More importantly, conversion therapy may cause harms that include depression, anxiety, and self-destructive behavior, fostered by the negative self-image that these efforts create [6]. “
You’re unbelievable with your manipulation!
That article is based on the APA, not the AMA!
But you’re doing a good job fooling people with your Gay bias!
