Gay man sues hospital for trying to change sexuality

A gay man has filed a lawsuit against a hospital in Central China’s Henan province alleging that he was forced to undergo treatment for “sexual preference disorder“ at the medical facility. Yu Hu, 37, alleged that he was forced to undergo treatment at the Second People’s Hospital of Zhumadian where he was admitted for 19 days by his family members in October 2015 after he filed for divorce from his wife. Yu is demanding an apology and compensation of 10,000 yuan ($1,520).
