PFOX Gets It Wrong Again

The ignorance of operations like PFOX is amazing to me, but the depth of their ignorance when it comes to gender identity issues is astonishing to me.
Consider the following gem that popped up on their press releases page in August:
PFOX note: Obviously the child was afflicted with gender identity disorder (GID) and should have received GID counseling instead of being encouraged to dress as something he was not. Encouraging GID behavior creates unsafe schools for our youth.

By "GID Counseling" do they mean "corrective" therapy whereby they basically try to re-educate the child? That doesn't work, it's been proven! Just let us live our lives damnit!
O, and since when do transgendered people "create unsafe schools for our youth?" HOW?!?!?!?!
