It didn't go into enough detail, so I might be completely off base, but the article refers to the assessment process for <21 at the Boston Gender Clinic
"Kids undergo a battery of interview-based psychological tests to see if they meet the medically established criteria for gender-identity disorder. The clothing they wear, the way they style their hair and the type of toys they play with are assessed"I just think it plays too much into gender stereotypes. Where do the MtF tomboys fit in? (I know they exist, I am one)
"Well Bobby certainly seems to have 'normal' interests for a boy his age. I just don't see him fitting the profile very well."
"That may be true doctor, but he insists I call him 'Susan' and keeps asking me when his breasts will start to grow"
Argh...
