  2. CW: hashtags for conversion practices, behaviour normalisation

    A few hashtags relating to something that still happens in far too many countries but really needs to stop, because in all its guises it is abuse, if not torture:

    #ABA
    #BanABA
    #BanConversionTherapy
    #ConversionPractice
    #ConversionTherapy
    #EndConversionTherapy
    #PBS
    #StopTheShock

  3. CW: Autistic conversion therapy, ABA/PBS, Scottish politics

    I know this has been talked about in the Scottish Government at some point, but there is sadly no plan at the moment to include ABA (applied behaviour analysis) or PBS (positive behaviour support) in an initial conversion practice ban

    Regrettably, these practices are being used increasingly in the UK and Scottish context, yet conversion practices that vainly attempt to make Autistic people neurotypical are no less abhorrent than conversion practices that attempt to make people like LGBT+ people cishet 😖

    A handy timeline comparing the pathologisations of queer and Autistic people:

    I’m grateful for the Scottish Green Party’s place in the Scottish Government meaning that an end to LGBT+ conversion practices is in sight

    (I didn’t say LGBTQIA+ because I don’t know for sure where the less-talked-about sexualities and gender identities will fit, nor whether this will have any effect on forced surgery for intersex children)
