A call for an EU ban on anti-LGBTQ 'conversion' gets 1 million signatures.

More than one million Europeans have called on the EU to ban "conversion"' practices targeting LGBTQ people, the results of a European Citizens' Initiative petition showed Friday.

@EUCommission Therefore, it is of great importance that the EU bans #conversiontherapy which harms people and is named torture by the UN! It's against #HumanRights!

Here's the official petition - the last day, deadline! Please join, if you are *really* standing strong with #LGBTIQ+ communities: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000001_en

Here's more information about what this unscientific so-called inhumane "therapy" is: https://www.globalcitizen.org/de/content/what-is-conversion-therapy-lgbtq/

EU-aloite eheytyshoitojen kieltämiseksi, auki vielä tänään. Vaikka tämä on jo yli vaaditun miljoonan rajan, kannattaa silti allekirjoittaa jos et vielä ole sitä tehnyt. Allekirjoitukset todennetaan vasta jälkikäteen ja siksi on hyvä olla ylimääräistä mahdollisimman paljon.

EU initiative to ban conversion practices. Please sign if not already. Validation of signatures happens afterwards so it is good to have as much extra signatures as possible.

In un giorno ci sono state più di 100k firme superando abbondantemente il minimo di 1 milione e, da non crederci, anche l'Italia ha superato la soglia minima nazionale

Ogni ulteriore firma è comunque utile e fa numero:

I'm looking at the list of trending posts that my instance knows about — something I can see as a moderator.

The top two are about the European Citizens' Initiative on banning conversion therapy (which gained the necessary number of signatures a couple hours ago but is still gathering more to deal with any disputed signatures and to show overwhelming support). 🎉

And two more of the top ten also deal with the petition. Way to go Mastodon people!

#LGBTQ #EuropeanUnion #ConversionTherapy

#Sweden is less than 10 signatures short of their national target on this EU petition against #ConversionTherapy.

#Italy is less than 3,000 signatures short (5% of their population).

#Denmark is just over 2,000 signatures short (22%).

#Austria is needs another 5,200 signatures (38%).

The petition closes tomorrow, so the other EU countries seem unlikely to make it at this point, but those ones aren't completely out of reach. Please consider sharing the link if you have followers in the EU.

🏳️‍🌈 On l’a fait 👊 1️⃣ million de votes pour la dignité, et interdire les #ThérapiesDeConversion en #Europe.

Et la #France en tête, avec +450 000 signatures. Politiques, Artistes, Militants, Anonymes… Preuve que quand les citoyens•nes s’unissent, ils peuvent faire avancer la cause !

Mais ce n’est qu'un début.

La Commission européenne doit transformer cette mobilisation en loi. Continuons le combat.

@actuallyautistic As an American I am not eligible to sign this European petition to ban (anti)gay #ConversionTherapy — but if you are, please do! Autistics: please recall that the inventor of this criminal practice, Ivar Lovaas, is THE SAME PERSON who invented #ABA, the equally criminal scourge of our community. Also recall that autistics are much more likely to be #LGBTQ+ than are neurotypicals, and that gays are a lightning rod for prejudices of many kinds. Even if you personally are cishet (as I am), the enemies of #LGBTQ+ are your enemies too.

The petition is reportedly now within 20,000 votes of the 1,000,000 needed to require the European Commission to consider the ban, but voting ends in less than 48 hours. Please help this important proposal to make it over the top!

https://eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#/screen/home

Less than 75k signatures from EU citizens are required to get the Commission to make a proposal to ban #ConversionTherapy!

We need your signature!

Just as a little context: #ConversionTherapy is already banned in some #EU countries but an EU-wide effort would be even better!

If you're a EU citizen, you can sign here until May 17th, if you haven't already: https://eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#/screen/home
