"Recently, I received an email from a professor in the philosophy department at Guilford College. Her
short, strange, and unsolicited missive asked whether it was true that I think that “transgender folk”
are “mentally ill.” She went on to say that such a view is “an insupportable position” that is
“unworthy of a scholar.” She concluded her brief sermon by informing me that her “preferred
pronouns” are “she, her, and hers.”
"Although I don’t usually answer unsolicited emails I can answer her question succinctly: Yes, I do
think “transgender folk” are mentally ill. I also think that any professor who actually thinks that my
stated position on the mental stability of “transgendered folk” disqualifies me as a scholar qualifies
as mentally ill. Please allow me to explain.
"Until recently, it was understood that a man who thought he was a woman (or a woman who thought
he was a man) suffered from Gender Identity Disorder, or GID. As Matt Walsh explains in his
brilliant new book, The Unholy Trinity, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) was only
recently pressured into removing GID from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). This was
done solely for political reasons." . . .
