Johns Hopkins Psychiatrist: Transgender is ‘Mental Disorder;'

Excert:
Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the former psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital and its current Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry, said that transgenderism is a “mental disorder” that merits treatment, that sex change is “biologically impossible,” and that people who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental disorder.

Dr. McHugh, the author of six books and at least 125 peer-reviewed medical articles, made his remarks in a recent commentary in the Wall Street Journal, where he explained that transgender surgery is not the solution for people who suffer a “disorder of ‘assumption’” – the notion that their maleness or femaleness is different than what nature assigned to them biologically.

I have spoken to quite a few specialists in this area and, when no one is around because of the very REAL fear of the SJW out there ( people have lost jobs and livelihoods over these things), they all say the same thing as him.
The view homosexuality and transgenderism as a mental disorder.
Scientifically and biologically speaking, it is very clear when a man is a man and a woman a woman and that does NOT change with operation and hormone therapy.
Of course this is not politically correct.
Funny thing is that we do NOT have free speech in North America anymore ( if we ever really did).
See, TRUE freedom of speech is people being able to express their views, especially unpopular one, and NOT be penalized for it.
That does NOT exist when the view is CONTRARY to special interest groups ( like the GLBTG ones)

It is perfectly correct to say, speaking from the scientific and biological point of view, that homosexuality and transgenderism is a mental disorder and, from the evolutionary biological POV, not in the best interest of the individual.

Of course, in the world we live in now that is dominated by SJW, people can NOT express these views REGARDLESS of the scientific evidence behind them ( no matter how conclusive they may be).

Yeah, but a very SMART one. Strange, if you are born with whatever betwixt your legs, and your mind is convinced that nature or God assigned you the wrong type of body. But why would one not consider that the problem is in the mind? Funny, people say one should accept all manner of sexual preferences and orientations, but someone is unwilling to accept their own body? Mind you, this is different than whatever attracts a person sexually. Even the former Bruce says he is unsure of which way he wants to sexually swing. Not to mention he's not yet "ALL in" on become a "woman." He's got the boobs, but hasn't yet had the "final snip," so to speak. But even if he does the unthinkable and gets eunuched, he's still a man with cosmetic procedures, who wears dresses, heels and makeup. And is his deep, manly voice not a clue? Really, for all the PC chatter for a person to use the bathroom of their choice, do you really want a guy with boobs and makeup in the urinal next to you? :shock: - which is what some politicians suggest would be most appropriate. y:-?

As for this bathroom stuff - which is apparently not yet a real problem (except with pandering politicians) - but where do you draw the line at whom uses what facility? Is it a multiple-choice question? Remember, there are transvestites and transsexuals - not the same thing. Transvestites may or may not be gay. They may or may not self-identify as the opposite sex. And a transvestite isn't necessarily the same as a cross dresser - the first wants to be mistaken for a woman, the latter merely likes dressing like one. But would most women be comfortable if a man obviously only dressed as a woman (a transvestite or cross dresser) comes into the ladies room? I doubt it! But if a transsexual (a surgical "woman") comes into the ladies room - still talking with a masculine voice (like Bruce), they'd be okay with it? Really, there is political correct talk, and then there's the real world in how people react beyond their PC speech. Maybe the solution is, have a third bathroom category available: "All of the Above" (with an inclusive list of whom that room is to accommodate) - it could have urinals and toilets bidets. But you just know that a new PC demand would want separate facilities for those put in this third category. We might have some 10 categories of bathrooms? Or, we just merge them all into one uni sexual bathroom. :shock: Really, I miss the old days, in which I went in the door with the silhouette wearing the pants, while everyone else went in the one with the dress. :roll:

Maybe THEY should have their own bathroom? y:-? It would need to be stocked with twice the TP, though! :pound:

I cant tell either! I looked up FIFY (which sounds like a poodle's name) and "urban dictionary" says it applies to all girls under 16. I am filled with powerful waves of confusion.

You know Audie, sometimes I think you're the old fogie. Someone your age should really be acquainted with abbreviations.
