The definition of a “mental illness” evolves (DSM was initially published in 1952), and each new edition re-defines the pathology landscape. For example, DSM once defined homosexuality as a treatable disorder but due to political pressure, in 1973 that classification was dropped. Today, however, DSM includes “Gender Dysphoria,” a condition that has exploded into public prominence and can justify surgery transforming young girls into young boys and vice versa. https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/11/the_next_inclusion_madness_neurodiversity.html
