Latter-day Saints as well as critics of the LDS Church should use more inclusive terms like "same-sex attraction" rather than "gay" to improve their thinking and dialogue about such issues, Ty Mansfield said Thursday.
“ ‘Gay’ is a social construct and also … an oversimplification," Mansfield said during a presentation before about 500 people at the 16th annual FairMormon Conference at the Utah Valley Convention Center in downtown Provo.
