John Hopkins Psychiatrist: ‘Gender Confusions Are Mostly Driven by Psychological and Psychosocial Problems’
2019-09-19
[CNSNEWS] Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University and former psychiatrist‐in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital, who has studied transgendered people for 40 years, believes that patients suffering gender dysphoria need psychological care ‐ not gender reassignment treatment.

"I think their mental problems, often depression, discouragement are the things that need treatment," Dr. McHugh, who has argued that it is a scientific fact that "transgendered men do not become women, nor do transgendered women become men," told The College Fix in an interview published Tuesday.

#7  I suppose the truly amazing part to be how the medical community goes along with this idiocy. You'd think they have more integrity than that.

#6  t's truly amazing how this phenomenon keeps repeating itself.

Not really. People want an easy thing to blame or be responsible for their issues. They never want to admit it is their fuck ups. Also see racists for the same phenomena.

#4  This trans nonsense will eventually be exposed as junk science + medical malpractice on the same horrific scale as lobotomies applied to mental patients in the last century.

It's truly amazing how this phenomenon keeps repeating itself.

#2  Oh no, g(romgoru, while the Johns Hopkins psychiatric department started all the s3x change surgery nonsense, they fairly quickly realized indulging the dysphoria of their patients provided only temporary relief of much deeper problems. They’ve been arguing against it ever since, but the community has been shouting them down the entire time. I’ll add a search to the article so you can see what is in the archives.
