And now, with Slovenia, the "7 countries" requirement has been reached. The initiative still needs to reach 1 million votes in total by Saturday.

@troglodyte_mignon @cyan_mess
The 1M signatures were passed!

After that, the people in charge will check if there are duplicate signatures (twice from the same person or from someone who does not exist) so keep on signing just to be safe!

Not signing this. I stand on a position that when 18+ you're free to decide what you want to do with yourself. This includes both Straight->LGBT conversion, and LGBT->Straight. One way ban is a massive hypocrisy

Straight to LGBT conversion? What are you even talking about? Also being gay is not a disease nor is it a crime so there is no need for a "therapy" to "cure" it to even exist.

It's a good thing nobody gives a shit what you think.

Conversion therapy is torture.

Can you name one organization dedicated to "converting" straight people to queer ones?
