First they tried to "cure" gayness. Now they're fixated on "healing" trans people.

Don't forget trying to fix left handed people.
My grandmother insisted I use my right hand to write. Turns out it doesn't matter that much now, I barely write anything at all. When I do, though, it's a horrible scrawl, although I don't know if it'd be the same had I been left to my own devices.
If it makes you feel any better, I'm left handed and have always written with my left hand and my penmanship is atrocious.
I can imagine it being more difficult to push than pull, especially in cursive.
But don't feel bad, I'm right-handed and write right-handed and my handwriting is also atrocious.
It would be a horrible scrawl smeared across the page, but your hand wouldnt cramp as bad
My mother's art teacher would hlsmack her with a ruler whenever she tried to use her left hand. Destroyed her passion for art at a young age.
Now come on, we can all agree we need to stop the left handed menace
They're very sinister.
Some of them even put the mouse on the wrong side! Down with them!
How diddly-dare you!
That's because the left hand is raised against the establishment. Want proof? I can't even raise a left fist emoji.. No option. Only right.
Puts on tinfoil
They're downright sinister
