There is a serious misconseption concerning the term which you use
to identify the therapist as "gate keepers." The Gender Identity
Therapist" are not the gate keepers here. The individual who refuses
to adhear to the standards of care are their own gate keepers.

That's such utter tripe!!!
People that don't adhere to SOC are their own gatekeaper WTF!
No wonder TS want to get those people out of the loop.
If your a balanced individiual of 60 you'd still have to jump trought the hoops
just because its of course and "insane" decision to change sex!
If the actiual articles says something positive, tell me, otherwise I know
I'll rip someone's head off just on principle (maybe I'm just in a bad mood...).
Even the SOC is interpreted at the leasure of the therapists right now, and there's plenty
of ->-bleeped-<- gender therapists out there...
I just can't agree on something so arbitrary as the SOC which doesn't take into account
the individual's various level of GID or personal situation.
