just as this proposal bans the use of conversion therapy even for volunteers, the earlier ban on torture bans people from volunteering to have a car battery hooked up to their chest and be alternatively beaten and waterboarded by their government.
"Then the forms of conversion therapy that inflict severe pain are already banned, and with that in concert with GAR #437, this resolution is unnecessary and unworthy of its own bureaucracy."
"Venereal disease can be dealt with using proper birth control devices.
"And increased government healthcare costs for the terminally ill can be dealt with on the side of economic policy, either increasing taxes or the GDP, depending on which increase maintains more national stability at the present time. This does not nullify the claim that a decrease in the amount of homosexual encounters, especially among men, by any consensual and life-respecting means, would result in a sufficient decrease in the transmissions of venereal disease to make it a comparable calculation to the cost argument for why the WA permits euthanasia legality."
"I must admit confusion as to why traffic in June is such an issue; are people having flash..." She pauses as she remembers where she is and that these transcripts are public."... 'adult group fun events' in the streets? I cannot imagine any other reason, as everything else can be handled with proper planning and response training. I must admire the willingness of your nation to allow such events if that is the case, though I admit I must wonder why you have not developed proper planning and response procedures for such. Unless... is it your law enforcement doing the flash 'adult group fun events?' Oh my..." The knight puts her hand over her mouth in mock shock. "That is one way to ensure your police forces feel comfortable with each other.
"I am sure that the existence of the activist liturgical festival known as 'pride month' is understood to exist by both the delegate from Trellania and the World Assembly, that its main features are parades and that the size of these parades correlates to the number of people who are active in the formal activist community of persons with same-sex attraction (exclusive or otherwise) and gender dysphoria. The suppression in society of any viewpoint offering a different course of action for such persons to pursue than involvement in said community will cause such events to grow in size and have a larger footprint on the commute times of hardworking citizens in urban areas.
Furthermore, not every particular case of potential state utility applies to Chiloshia. The WA affects all nations within its voting pool and therefore arguments can be made for the conditions of all these nations, including whichever ones do partake in those 'Public adult group fun events'"
If you want [birth rates] to rise
"Obviously that's what we were suggesting! We do already offer tax breaks. If the portion of people whose attractions are sufficiently malleable (the malleability of sexuality varying from person to person) as to not merely defeat their attraction to the same sex, but to develop heterosexuality, are allowed, if they so choose, to pursue said therapy in their own striving for it to work, the result could further augment the repopulation rate in favor of growth."
