Actually one of many. I don't have time to document them all, I'm rather busy with PhD work.

Over at the New American :

    Is the APA Playing Politics With Sexual Disorder Definition?
    ...
    Dr. George Rekers, a professor of neuropsychiatry and behavioral science at the University of South Carolina medical school, told CitizenLink.com that, like its earlier decision to delete homosexuality from its list of sexual disorders, the APA is once again caving in to political pressure. "I think they are bowing to activist groups to downplay the actual psychopathology involved by just calling it gender incongruence," he said. "They don't want to go back to put homosexuality as the disorder. Now it looks like they're backpedaling on Gender Identity Disorder."
