‘Ex-gays’ sue DC human rights office (Things that make you go WTF?)

[WillParkinson]

(Washington) A national organization that claims homosexuality is a matter of choice and that gays can be “cured” has filed a lawsuit against the Washington DC Office of Human Rights, accusing it of failing to protect “ex-gays.”

The DC Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression.

Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays & Gays, or PFOX, says in its suit that the Office of Human Rights does not recognize “ex-gays.”

The suit asks the DC Superior Court to direct the Office to include former homosexuals under the sexual orientation law.

The ex-gay community is the most bullied and maligned group in America, yet they are not protected by sexual orientation non-discrimination laws,” said Regina Griggs, PFOX executive director, in a statement.

The most bullied and maligned group in America?

3. White heterosexual Christian males are the biggest victims of discrimination.

:sarcasm: The whole "Ex-gay" and "Reparative Therapy" movements have been widely debunked. They deserve "Cult Status."

4. So they don't want anti-discrimination laws to apply

to GLBTQ people yet they do want them to apply to themselves?

:wow:
