Transgenderism is Likely a Mental Disorder

It is difficult to fathom why our President is expending so much political will in trying to mainstream cross dressers. The fact remain that not only is transgenderism deviant behavior it is believed to be closely related another dysphoric condition called 'body integrity identity disorder' where an otherwise healthy person one or more limbs of one's body do not belong to them or a person suffering anorexia that has a much distorted view of their own body. Dr Paul McHugh who holds the position of Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry for John Hopkins University identifies transgenderism as mental disorder,“’sex change’ is biologically impossible,” said (Dr Paul) McHugh. “People who undergo sex-reassignment surgery do not change from men to women or vice versa. Rather, they become feminized men or masculinized women..for those who had sexual reassignment surgery, most said they were “satisfied” with the operation “but their subsequent psycho-social adjustments were no better than those who didn’t have the surgery.”  Transgenderism is a Mental Disorder A 2003 Study from Sweden "...suggest that sex reassignment, although alleviating gender dysphoria, may not suffice as treatment for transsexualism. In other words, even when transsexual sexual reassignment surgery, the dysmorphic feeling that they were born the wrong gender had little affect on their general well being, still pathological preoccupied with their gender.

 Dr McHugh has good reason for his beliefs, the truth is there should be no argument that transsexualism is a mental disorder as it is defined as such in the Psychiatric DSM-IV ( Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition: DSM-5). 302.85 Gender Identity Disorder in Adolescents or Adults

Gender Incongruence (in Adolescents or Adults) [1] A marked incongruence between one’s experienced/expressed gender and assigned gender, of at least 6 months duration, as manifested by 2 or more of the following indicators: [2, 3, 4]

1. a marked incongruence between one’s experienced/expressed gender and primary and/or secondary sex characteristics (or, in young adolescents, the anticipated secondary sex characteristics) [13, 16]

2. a strong desire to be rid of one’s primary and/or secondary sex characteristics because of a marked incongruence with one’s experienced/expressed gender (or, in young adolescents, a desire to prevent the development of the anticipated secondary sex characteristics) [17]

3. a strong desire for the primary and/or secondary sex characteristics of the other gender

4. a strong desire to be of the other gender (or some alternative gender different from one’s assigned gender)

5. a strong desire to be treated as the other gender (or some alternative gender different from one’s assigned gender)

6. a strong conviction that one has the typical feelings and reactions of the other gender (or some alternative gender different from one’s assigned gender)

The sad part of this is the real victims of this push to make transgenderism main stream are the young boys who's parents are pushing them into pushing transgenderism. It is well known that children tend to be gender neutral, ie boys dressing up like mom. However they normally out grow this stage spontaneously if left alone, and it is child abuse to promote anything otherwise. What is also just under the surface is how patriarchal transgenderism is. The primary victims are women and young girls. These is the gender that is being put upon, forcing them to endure sharing a locker room and showering with men with men genitalia; something that is not only unwelcome but can be dangerous if these man are predators

Let is also be known that there is no country that allows such things. Yes, there are unisex bathrooms but they are not the norm and have a warning displayed. Further the transsexual's have also stated they do not want separate bathrooms, they want to use what ever gender bathroom they identify with; they do not want accommodation they want full acceptance. It should also be noted that this has nothing in common with homosexuality, where gays and lesbians have no desire to share bathroom and locker rooms with the opposite sex;  as Dr McHgh said "Claiming that this is civil-rights matter and encouraging surgical intervention is in reality to collaborate with and promote a mental disorder."

So why is the left and President Obama so intent on pushing this. The answer is simple, the collectivist must be able to change and define social norms and values at will. 

This is allowed when we let progressives set the standard for right and wrong and allow for such social engineering, for fear of being called a racist or phobic. In reality the left created these values, when they created political correctness, and then they use political correctness to justify these perverted standards; standards that run counter to the legitimate values that define a cultural. The end result is the governments legitimizing deviant and criminal behavior under a false banner of individual rights. 

 Once this is done, the powers that be can route out all differential cultures and values to create the world governance being pushed so hard by President Obama. Hopefully President Obama has finally over reached,  so there finally be cultural and values push back rather blind acceptance and obedience to the social engineering of the left; and the action taken will portend our future for decades to come.
