SAITAMA -- More than 10 children in Saitama Prefecture's public schools have Gender Identity Disorder, a recent survey of students in primary school through high school revealed Thursday.

The emergency survey was undertaken after a second grade elementary school boy was recently diagnosed with the condition. Gender Identity Disorder (GID) is a psychiatric classification for people who feel their emotional genders are different from their physical genders.
