Criminalising ‘Conversion Therapy’
An increasing number of jurisdictions have introduced legal bans on so‐called ‘conversion therapy’ practices. Yet significant uncertainty and disagreement persist among legal scholars, policymakers and advocates about whether criminal law is an appropriate tool in this area and, if so, how it should be used.

Perhaps unsurprisingly the judgment spawned widespread disap…
