So this is just the same thing they were proposing before, roping in "gender identy" as part of conversion therapy.

But using that as a weapon against Mermaids? That's clever! That's a hot take!

That's the part that concerns me because doctors used to try to treat gender dysphoria and only recommended transition as the last resort if other treatments didn't work. And even then, transition doesn't have the best track record in terms of outcomes. I guess this law doesn't apply to psychiatrists. I wonder if it applies to people like teachers who might encourage young children to think they're transgender.

Overall, I think it's a bad thing. But if it does happen, then using this law against Mermaids seems like a good trick.
