Remove Gender Identity Disorder from the DSM and ICD

Created by S.N. on October 07, 2011

STIGMA & Discrimination KILLS;Oppression is the worst form of human rights abuse, this can lead to Depression, Suicidal Ideation and Self Harm Tendencies OR even, being one of the estimated 30% of Trans people who add themselves to the suicide rate.There is NO evidence to suggest that Gender Variant people are born with mental health issues than any other person.It is proven fact that governments, perceived professionals in the health services and Primary Care Trusts, society and fundamentalists cause more mental health issues within the Gender Variant communities by their stigma & discrimination.It is what is right & not what Governments or others perceive it is for their benefit alone.Lack of knowledge is no excuse for Human Rights Abuse.
