Thank you very much for the question, Madam Findlay.
As it is right now, my therapist currently supports me in avoiding things like sexual promiscuity or sexual actions with people who are physically or emotionally unavailable—who are in a monogamous relationship or something like that—as well as unhealthy sexual practices—for example, the tendency to engage in a sexual practice without knowing someone's HIV or STI status, without using the proper protection, or without making sure it's in a physically and emotionally safe space.
My therapist also supports me in avoiding relationships with people who take advantage of me at times in those realms. Because these physical and emotional relationships are with someone of the same sex, technically under proposed section 320.101, this might be considered a therapy that is designed to reduce that sexual behaviour.
Ultimately my goal is to reduce that particular unhealthy sexual behaviour, which is completely unrelated to the fact of who it is with, but to the fact that the behaviour itself is not healthy regardless of who it is being done with.
I do echo the comments of a lot of other witnesses and MPs that the goal of the bill is to allow that kind of healthy dialogue to still happen. It's not officially codified in the bill—it is great that it's present in other places and other documents and circulars and things—and if it's not actually encoded in black and white in the text of the legislation, that, to me personally, is still very concerning.
