Tell the international organization for transgender health how you feel about them electing a transphobe as treasurer!

Florence Ashley says this about the international organization for transgender health electing a transphobic person, Dr. Baudewijntje Kreukel, to the position of treasurer of WPATH.

WPATH, the largest and most well-recognized professional organization on transgender health, elected someone as treasurer who argued that the Standards of Care should reverse its opposition to trans conversion therapy when it comes to consenting adults.

That same Dr. Kreukels who argued just two years ago that practitioners should revive the now-defunct notion of autogynephilia and transvestic fetishism. In other words, she thinks there is a place in our psychological world for the view that queer trans women are misguided heterosexual men who are trans primarily because of their sexual attraction to the image of themselves as women.

I thought that, too, had been laid to rest by the tireless work of Julia Serano, Talie Mae Bettcher, and Charles Moser. Two theorists, one scientist, criticizing the theory from panoptical angles.

SIGN THIS PETITION NOW AND TELL WPATH THAT PEOPLE WHO REDUCE TRANSGENDER IDENTITIES TO SEXUAL PERVERSIONS HAVE NO PLACE IN TRANGENDER HEALTH CARE!
