Close the CAMH Gender Identity Clinic
As part of the upcoming Trans DSM-V rally/protest in San Francisco May
18
, we want to make it clear what trans people think about the policies
and procedures at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH).
Formerly known as the Clarke Institute
complex that emerged from the Provincial Lunatic Asylum, CAMH is home
to Kenneth Zucker
, the chief advocate of reparative therapy on gender-variant youth,
and Ray Blanchard, the chief advocate of “autogynephilia”
woman is merely “a man without a penis.” These two “experts” are
poised to write the diagnoses which will affect all trans people for
the next 15 to 20 years.
Close the CAMH Gender Identity Clinic
We had over 200 people join in the first 24 hours. Let’s keep the
momentum! Invite your friends to join and spread the word to raise
awareness!
This is talk, not advice. See Terms of Use for details.
