Harvard Medical School is undergoing a “comprehensive” review of what it teaches students about transgenderism as part of a three-year plan to unearth “wrong ideas” about gender and change what is taught in the classroom, the school says. Last fall Harvard launched the Sexual and Gender Minorities Health Equity Initiative, a three-year plan to better equip students so they can be ready to assist transgender patients. To accomplish that, curriculum will be rewritten and traditional concepts about gender will be jettisoned, CBN News reports. “We’re hoping this becomes part of a broader way of looking at transgender people and transgender health care across the U.S.,” said Medical School Dean George Q. Daley.

Part of me wants to throw up my hands and ask, "why"? Let's just expect doctors to do whatever they've always done when it comes to treating a transgendered patient ... and if they send them for a psych eval in the process, well, that might be the healthiest thing for the patient. But I could go along with this idea of better equipping students to treat transgendered patients, since there are getting to be so many of them. However, when I hit the political agenda line, I have to go back and throw the baby out with the bathwater - "Nope! We're not changing a thing!"
