about time the professionals call out this nonsense!
Wow! Talk about swimming against the tide of political correctness! Entirely refreshing!
The barbarians will be storming the gate in 3, 2, 1...
Wow, in this politically correct world telling the truth is hate speech. Glad to see that there is some remaining sanity in the medical profession.
"The science is clear: no one is born gay or transgender. The psychodynamic and psychosocial theories of sexual desire and gender identity have never been disproven. No one has a civil right to a developmental disorder. It is well documented by those on both ends of the political spectrum that the normalization of homosexuality by the American Psychiatric and Psychological Associations was a result of a political and ideological coup, not of science."
Michelle Cretella, M.D., president of the American College of Pediatricians

In contrast, if you're a lunatic who is convinced that he's a woman living in a man's body, that psychiatrist is supposed to say "Sure thing" and take out the scalpel and scissors.
YES! They’ll be feeling the heat soon though.
Someone who actually knows what he’s talking about. Watch for calls for his resignation.

Liberals would turn society inside out and upside down for the sake of the few people who just cannot accept the body they were born with. Liberals never consider the broader effect on the rest of us when they insist on such disruptive accommodation of these people. As sorry as I am for their distress, many of the rest of us have our own issues that are just as distressing, yet we don’t think to demand that society must make a special place for us too.
Since Liberals do not have principles, any cause they decide to champion is far more for the effect of that advocacy than for the cause itself. Liberals seek to destroy any moral absolutes in favor of a fluid and relativistic morality that can easily be changed. #BakeTheCake!
I am amazed. The AMA and the American Psychological Association essentially rolled over and played dead on that front decades ago. Not sure who the American College of Pediatricians is (I think the American Pediatric Society is the one that parallels the AMA and APA), but if they stick to this position I will be profoundly impressed.
Mark for further reading.
