Is The CMDA's Dr. David Stevens A Liar Or Just A Ignoramus?

"The "psychological perspective" that Dr. Stevens is referring to is
obviously conversion therapy, because he's rejects the American
Medical Association's house of delegates approval of a resolution in
June that supports removing barriers to treat and care for transgender
people, as apparently he also rejects the Harry Benjamin Standard Of
Care (HBSOC)[of which the purpose of the HBSOC is to articulate
WPATH's consensus about the psychiatric, psychological, medical, and
surgical management of gender identity disorders (GID)]."
