:Ok, so I'm a bit off on a tangent. The purpose of this was to show that GID is not the same as sex reassignmenent surgery. Sex reassignment therapy (which does not necessarily include any physical intervention at all) is perscribed as appropriate, and as medical need dictates. Therefore, one person diagnosed with GID may simply attend a few therapy sessions, or they may be so fundamentally driven that the only reasonable medical course is to grant them sex reassignment surgery. Also noted, was that a source clearly indicated that Iran has a binding Fatwa that recognizes transsexuality as different from homosexuality, and in some cases declares it a legal behavior. --[[User:Puellanivis|Puellanivis]] 19:04, 15 August 2007 (EDT)

::Ok, let me get this correct: 40+ million Americans do not access to quality health care; meantime, medical doctors are taking men and surgically, supposedly, turning them in women, and vice versa. And this is called "therapy", and "medical treatment," etc.
::This begs a question: if these so-called "healthcare professionals" were not spending their time doing "boob jobs" (as they are called in the trade), and actually were providing "healthcare," would there be actually be a "healthcare crisis"? [[User:RobS|Rob Smith]] 19:16, 15 August 2007 (EDT)
