Does the Psychology Community assist in transsexual sexual exploitation?

  

Reader Melissa notes:

Growing up, I always wondered if 1 in 30,000 people were male to female transsexuals, why is their so much organized resistance to this?

- Economic cost would be minimal.
- Transsexuals with numbers that low could not possibly be made into credible scapegoats for any of the world’s problems.
- Half the population is male and half is female; so what difference does it make if a person goes from one to another?
- People are not capable of psychologically coping with transitioning for purposes other than gender disorder, so no need to worry about fallen patriarchy.

It hit me a few years ago. There is no sane reason for organized hatred, but there is a sensible reason for organized sexual exploitation.

The very first criteria used by John Hopkins University to filter out candidates were as follows:

1) No married patients
2) No patients with children
3) No transsexual lesbians
4) No big boned transsexuals who can’t pass
5) No transsexual men.

The first two were very understandable due to the controversial nature of this program. The third could be seen as somewhat understandable due to lack of homosexual acceptance. The fourth has nothing to do with what a person’s brain is like and the fifth makes absolutely no sense at all.

When I tried to understand the 5th criteria in conjunction with the other four, it hit me. The only possible purpose this combined criteria has is sexual exploitation.

No Dykes, No Chunkies, No Men, No one with a bond to the mainstream world allowed.

This sounds more like a recruiting ad for an exploitive sex business rather than medical criteria.

The same can be said for today’s Blanchard, Bailey, Lawrence theory of grouping male to female transsexuals into two categories: Androphiles and Autogynophiliacs. The first are transsexuals who are infatuated with men and who eagerly and reliably put out. Autogynophiliacs are every other male to female transsexual.

This is also true for the Christian Right. They focus almost exclusively on male to female transsexuals and ignore female to male transsexuals.

I also notice how so called conservative gays always seem to be the ones molesting children and exploiting adolescents. I get this strange feeling that much of the gay oppression campaign is based on these people’s sexual needs rather than heterosexual fears. The same I think can also be said about male chauvinist Christians who fiercely opposed feminism.

No marriage rights and no work rights condemn transsexual women to prostitution.

Pressure on other women to refuse to recognize transsexuals as such isolates transsexual women from the rest of the world. This allows for silent and invisible abuse.
