"For too long, education around the care of these populations has been cordoned off into special areas of the medical curriculum: When AIDS is taught, then gay men are discussed; when genetics is taught, then one or two forms of differences of sex development are covered. What we need are medical curricula that actively integrate the teaching of sexuality, gender, and sex development across the disciplines, throughout the four years of medical school and into residency training."
