The British government is planning to outlaw so-called gay conversion therapy as part of an effort to counter intolerance and discrimination.
A survey of LGBT people found 2% of the 108,000 respondents had undergone conversion therapy.
Gay conversion "therapies" are based on the premise that being gay, lesbian, ... is a mental illness that can be "cured." But there is no evidence that they work, and the techniques are largely discredited. The World Health Organization declassified homosexuality "a mental condition" in 1992.
