I want that link.I dont think gay is a mental disorder. Although, it could probably be argued it is some sort of chemical imbalance. Simply because it goes against nature. Thats it.I have seen somewhere where alot of the people that run that malarkey are homosexuals. They took gayness off the list of disorders in the 70s with no scientific basis. Only 1/4 of doctors in their panel agreed with that assessment. ONE FOURTH. They are activists. Nothing more.So, transexuals dont suffer because of their condition? Welp, you better tell the transexuals their distress is all in their head!Is being transgender a mental disorder?They have answered that question?
A psychological state is considered a mental disorder only if it causes significant distress or disability. Many transgender people do not experience their gender as distressing or disabling, which implies that identifying as transgender does not constitute a mental disorder. For these individuals, the significant problem is finding affordable resources, such as counseling, hormone therapy, medical procedures and the social support necessary to freely express their gender identity and minimize discrimination. Many other obstacles may lead to distress, including a lack of acceptance within society, direct or indirect experiences with discrimination, or assault. These experiences may lead many transgender people to suffer with anxiety, depression or related disorders at higher rates than nontransgender persons.
According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), people who experience intense, persistent gender incongruence can be given the diagnosis of "gender dysphoria." Some contend that the diagnosis inappropriately pathologizes gender noncongruence and should be eliminated. Others argue that it is essential to retain the diagnosis to ensure access to care. The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is under revision and there may be changes to its current classification of intense persistent gender incongruence as "gender identity disorder."
Look at my link above. The ICD10 is an INTERNATIONAL classification of disease established by the WHO.
BTW, the APA is a bunch of political horseshit. A few years ago they said if you dont identify as liberal, you are insane.

Go and try to cite the APA in a court room
They say transgenders are just as mentally healthy as sane people despite their almost 50% suicide rate
They also label insomnia as a mental disorder but not transexuality? tsk tsk
Check out the ICD10.

In the 70's, it was still a common belief that all gays were pedophiles. They were fired from teaching positions if they were "found out." It was awful, but we were living in a cloud of ignorance then. I doubt psychologists today find being "gay" a disorder.
The ICD or the DSM--does it really make that much difference?
The APA is not political activists, except in the sense that it educates people still living in a fucking pig holler somewhere who think there's something SICK about being gay or transgender. Yes, in this judgmental society it can cause a lot of issues, but it isn't the being gay or trans that causes it. It's the fact that people like you won't accept them as they are.
What difference does it make? Well, considering we are posting different things, i would say it matters lol. The DCM was created by the APA. The ICD was created by a world org that doesnt give two shits about american societal issues.
I like how you skipped half my post.
If you dont think them saying "if you dont identify as liberal, you are insane" is activism, you, mam, are retarded.
Pediatrician are just now starting to fight back against diagnosing gender integrity disorder in very young children. They are working to have blockers, hormone treatments and surgeries in children considered child abuse.
No he's wrong again--and he's going to get blasted for it. John McCain has already started in on him. We allow Gays in the military, a transgender in someone completely different. Identity gender that shows up at a very young age, like this little boy in Colorado Springs.
Transgender 6-year-old takes on Fountain school district
There are about 2,000 active U.S. military that fit in this category right now.
I have never picked up the Orange Don like a bowling ball, but I heard he enjoys the sport.
Honestly? The S.C. doesn't review discrimination cases? What about the Christian bakers?SC for what? Trannies arent covered in any laws or the COTUS. SC cant do shit
BS! You pay for their pecker packing surgeries and hormones and God knows what else. This MADNESS must stop!Look its simple, there's a lot of pent up shit that needs sorting out, years of it, and president Trump is sorting it out. That's why the American people elected him president!
Trans and gay people weren't causing any trouble in the military. This move was just to fuck with Trumps opponents. It took the news off Russia. This administration is obviously playing us for stupid. It'll work on Trump voters.
You can't remember where it was last night?

AKA activism
Are gays protected? Yes Are trannies? NoHonestly? The S.C. doesn't review discrimination cases? What about the Christian bakers?SC for what? Trannies arent covered in any laws or the COTUS. SC cant do shit
Discrimination? So, you think mentally ill people should have the right to drive tanks and walk around with automatic weapons? Awesome. You sound like a staunch second amendment supporter. Even i dont support it that much
As a veteran I agree with the Commander-in-Chief on this one. John McCain needs to give up criticism of every Trump move.

LMAO.....anyone who has been in the military will tell you that its, if not non-existent, at least highly rare and unusual for any unit to be made up entirely of whites.
