EP0005 Gender: The Good, Bad, & Ugly

The #WiseNuts discuss gender-confusion and how it effects our daily lives.  The APA and other mental health organizations do not consider all manifestations of “gender nonconformity” to be a mental disorder. But when it is severe enough to cause individuals “significant distress,” it crosses the threshold of “gender dysphoria” and is without question a mental disorder.  People who undergo sex-reassignment surgery do not change from men to women or vice versa.  Rather, they become feminized men or masculinized women. . . encouraging surgical intervention is in reality to collaborate with and promote a mental disorder.  Sex-change surgery does not solve underlying mental health problems.  Many people who have sought to change their gender through hormone therapy and surgery have deeply regretted the decision, and in some cases, have tried to reverse the surgery.  Given that close to 80 percent of such children would abandon their confusion and grow naturally into adult life if untreated, these medical interventions come close to child abuse.
