Allowed to practice Medicine, I mean. Neither is Blanchard. Their doctorates aren't in Medicine. They're researchers, not practitioners. This is a man who shouldn’t even be allowed to practice medicine, let alone be put in this sort of position of responsibility.

He isn’t. Allowed to practice Medicine, I mean. Neither is Blanchard. Their doctorates aren’t in Medicine. They’re researchers, not practitioners.

Apparently Dr Cohen is currently working on a gender team for revision of Dutch protocols for treatment, including partial treatment for non transsexual transgenders. Alice noted that Dr. Cohen should by nature be opposed to Zucker and Blanchard. I had a comment from Alice, a Dutch transgender blogger who had positive things to say about Dr. Peggy Cohen.

Did they even think of including an actual trans person amongst the working group? Or just self-appointed "experts" who make money off appropriating the voices of trans people? WHAT THE FUCK?!?!

This is bigger than Raymond; I think she's on the fringe enough that she couldn't be expected to hold much sway with these people. The right is up to something serious here, and they have to be stopped. Mercedes: I wasn't for a second stating this was a done deal, but it's a hell of a bad start. Thanks for bringing it to our attention, anyway. GallingGalla: I have no idea how this happened.

If this interferes with my treatment, I don’t know what I’m going to do..."</i> To put it into a bit of context, the DSM-V is not due out until 2011, as I understand it. These task force groups take a lot of time deliberating and debating. We do have time to fight this -- which we need to do for those who follow in our path later -- and Zucker, Blanchard et. al. have given us plenty of ammunition to do so. “OMFG, this is scary.

If this interferes with my treatment, I don't know what I'm going to do. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to let those Zucker, Blanchard, and Bailey assholes onto the APA? Did Raymond and her friends put them up to this? I am just so livid right now that I can't even comment in any kind of cohesive way. OMFG, this is scary.
