This study of parent observations and interpretations serves to develop the hypotheses that rapid-onset gender dysphoria is a phenomenon and that social influences, parent-child conflict, and maladaptive coping mechanisms may be contributing factors for some individuals. Rapid-onset gender dysphoria (ROGD) is not a formal mental health diagnosis ...

Insatisfacción resultante del conflicto entre la identidad de género y el sexo legalmente asignado al nacer.

OBS

género: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que en sociología, tal como aclara el "Diccionario panhispánico de dudas", el vocablo "género" tiene el significado de "categoría sociocultural que implica diferencias o desigualdades de índole social, económica, política, laboral, etc.", un sentido que en el ámbito de los estudios sociológicos puede resultar útil e, incluso, necesario. [...] No es incorrecto, por tanto, hablar de "violencia de género", "estudios de género" o "identidad de género", pero se recomienda restringir su uso a los estudios sociológicos.

"Primary transsexualism is demonstrated by a life-long fixed and consistent cross-gender identification, whereas secondary transsexualism is generally associated with self-stigmatized, ego-dystonic, homophobic homosexuals or guilt-ridden transvestites, seeing sex reassignment as the only solution to their dilemma. It is estimated that 30-35% of sex reassignment applicants are self-stigmatized, homophobic homosexuals or guilt-ridden transvestites." [Pauly, I. "Gender identity disorders." In Farber, M. (ed.). Human Sexuality: Psychosexual Effects of Disease. Macmillan, New York, pp. 295-316 (1985); Pauly, I. and Edgerton, M.T. "The Gender Identity Movement: A Growing Surgical-Psychiatric Liaison," 15(4) Archives of Sexual Behavior 315 (1986), cited in INTERNET]

CONT

Primary transsexualism is the most extreme form of gender reversal. Anatomically normal males who know that they are anatomically normal nonetheless feel within themselves that they are somehow female, and therefore, they make every effort to arrange that their bodies conform with their gender identity.

French
