The APA Task Force Report on Gender Identity and Gender Variance
[APA08 - PDF here] greatly underreports the prevalence of "gender
identity disorder" by a factor on the order of 10 to 20.
The underreporting of GID prevalence derives from a deliberate
misuse of clinical definitions and a failure to mention known
calculation errors in sources.
