U.S. Surgeon General: "Being Gay Is Not A Disorder"


Bravo to Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, speaking today on a conference call about White House support for bans on "ex-gay" torture:
"Being gay is not a disorder. Being transgender is not a malady that requires a cure.

"Had I been Leelah Alcorn's physician, I would have told her exactly that.

"And that's the message I want other doctors, nurses, health professionals, and public health leaders to help get out to parents and children who may be confronting these issues."
