I messed up. I was asked if I do Gender-Exploratory Therapy. Exploring gender in a safe space? With a trusted adult? Who has no investment in the outcome and just wants to give young people a safe space to ask themselves questions? Yeah, I do that.

Whoops. Turns out, “Gender-Exploratory Therapy” doesn’t mean non-judgmental therapy where you can explore your gender. Gender-Exploratory Therapy is conversion therapy, renamed because conversion therapy is abuse.
