5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely thorough and competent, 14 May 1999
By A Customer
Even four years after publication this text is a very fine achievement. Very thorough, extremely well referenced, and not extremist in the midst of the various scholarly debates which exist. There do not seem to be major papers since which greatly alter the conclusions.

1.0 out of 5 stars Gender Identity Disorder does not exist, but, bigotry does, 9 Mar 1998
By A Customer
How can anyone in the contemporary psycology comunity accept this homophobic and regressive treatment of homosexuality in youths. It is this kind of essentialist, gender role status quo promoting dogma which causes many parent to forcibly institutionalise sane children. Many youths, probally over hundreds have been labled as having "Gender Identity Disorder" simply for refusing to abide to our cultures (or their parents) gender norms. While institutionalised they are exposed to traumatic incidents as quacks try to train them to be straight (or act straight that is). This is no less than an attrocity commited in the name of homophobia and the perpetuation of an increasingly inaccurate and unacceptable gender status quo. Academics of all fields from Anthropology to Sociology, History, Biology and Psycology are comming to realize that gender is merely a western social construct. It exists only in terms of the society that creats it. The academic fields of Queer Theory and Gender Studies now function primarily on this premis and the author of this backward tract seems to have vollunteered to miss the boat in the name or bigotry and child abuse. I would suggest that any one with a serious loving concern for a child with "Gender Identity Sydrom" first consider his or her own homophobia before puting the child in psyciatric care. It is the homophobes and gender barrier defenders that need therepy, not young homosexual or transgendered children. I personally have known many homosexual and transgendered youths whose parents used Mental Instituations as dumping grounds for children who they just didn't understand. These kids were sane untill they were forced into assylum. From Sexologist Havelock Ellis on, it is a known and proven fact that all of the psycological problems commonly associated with homosexuals are caused by other people's hatefull treatment of them and not by any congenital deffect of the homosexual mind. If you seek wisdom and truely love and care about the fate of children every where go else were for knowlege. All that is to be found here is inacurate, bigoted and dangerous rhetoric.
