Talk:Skoptic syndrome

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have removed a section about people taking medications, which I myself added a few months ago, because the term "Skoptic Syndrome" is being used to demonize those with a gender dysphoria similar to myself.

It is a term that was first coined in the 70's and is likely to dissapear very soon, with the publication of the DSM-V

I personally find the term "Skoptic Syndrome" highly offensive and would like to see it dissapear, along with words like "nigger", "faggot". It is offensive, and used to demonize a very real subsection of society who are perfectly healthy and are gender or body dysphoric and dysmorphic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.189.132.221 (talk) 22:18, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
