Authorities in Malaysia have sent 66 boys identified by teachers as "effeminate" to a camp that aims to teach them about masculine behavior and discourage them from becoming gay, according to the Associated Press.
Officially billed as a "self development course," the boys are ages 13 to 17, the state's education director, Razali Daud, confirmed in a statement. Gay sex is illegal in Malaysia.
The camp is meant "to guide them back to the right path in life before they reach a point of no return," Razali told the AP. "Such effeminate behavior is unnatural and will affect their studies and their future."
The boys will attend religious and motivational classes in addition to receiving physical guidance.
