Many people have difficulties in adjusting to their prescribed sexual orientation, and find it problematic...others are "well-adjusted", despite prejudices and biases against them, and lead happy, productive lives.

If someone is gay, but doesn't want to be gay, how is providing them with an option to be what they want, insulting?
It actually shows that there is very little choice involved with being gay (because if it was pure choice, than they wouldn't need help becomeing not gay).
