"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." - Surgeon
General Vivek Murthy, speaking today on a conference call about White
House support for bans on "ex-gay" torture.
