Had to turn down an interview on @bbc5live because they were going to have a proponent of conversion therapy on. Ofcom rules demand *due* not total impartiality. The medical profession has concluded: conversion therapy is harmful. No one who promotes it should be given airtime.

Eurgh. I literally teach this to teenagers and the *audacity* 😭

In the ‘Emma goes places for @school_sexed workshops and tries to come up with alliteration’ series, I give you, erm… ‘Birth Control on the Beach’? ‘#SexEd by the Seaside’?!
