Renato Pfeffer
Renato Pfeffer is a Swiss politician and a member of the Evangelical People's Party (EVP), who has become an outspoken advocate against conversion therapy after personally experiencing its detrimental effects. At the age of 17, Pfeffer sought help from a therapist who claimed to be able to 'cure' his homosexuality, leading to years of internal struggle and self-hatred. Now 41, he has emerged as a prominent voice in the fight to ban such therapies in Switzerland, emphasizing the need for legal protection against these harmful practices. Pfeffer's journey to self-acceptance culminated in his recent marriage to a man, marking a significant personal victory and a testament to the importance of authenticity and acceptance in the LGBTQ+ community.
