"This misinformation reinforces the assumption that LGBT people's sexual orientation and gender identity can be corrected, changed or are not real or as valid as cisgender heterosexual identities. The fact is diversity in sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics is completely natural and normal. This has been proven by medical and other bodies. The minister must retract and correct the misinformation."
"Homophobia just like its cousins xenophobia, racism, tribalism, sexism are so idiotic. How does a person who believe they are sane come up with this c***? Crazy"
"That's a wild claim - he's basically saying stress and lack of sleep somehow turn people gay."
Claims linked work-related stress, social environment, sexual experiences, personal circumstances, and "insufficient religious practice" to people adopting an "LGBTQ+ lifestyle". From 2022 to 2025, 135 cases related to LGBTQ+ activities were recorded as arrests or prosecutions. LGBTQ+ rights group Justice for Sisters called the claims misinformation and stated that sexual orientation and gender identity cannot be corrected or changed. The group emphasized that diversity in sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and sex characteristics is natural and supported by medical and other bodies. Social media users criticized the claims as homophobic and illogical. Homosexuality has been illegal in Malaysia since the 1800s.
