A major improvement has been approved by the World Health Organisation (WHO) that will greatly benefit the transgender people around the world. The Human Rights Watch reported that the WHO governing body, World Health Assembly, representing 194 member states, voted for new diagnostic guidelines that will no longer categorise being gender nonconformity as a 슬롯사이트œmental disorder.슬롯사이트� WHO removed 슬롯사이트œGender Identity Disorder슬롯사이트� from their diagnostic guidelines and that means Trans people should not be dismissed by governments as 슬롯사이트œmentally ill.슬롯사이트� The news has come as a big wave for the feminists and transgender rights activists worldwide.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천#TransLooksLikeThis Goes Viral on Twitter With Transgender People Are Sharing Their Experiences for Not Being 슬롯사이트˜Trans Enough슬롯사이트�.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천

Many medical systems in the past, including those supported by the WHO, have categorised being transgender as a mental health condition. However, an evolving scientific understanding of gender and tireless effort by transgender activists made this crucial development possible. The newly-revised version under International Classification of Diseases, known as ICD-11, by the WHO, 슬롯사이트œgender identity disorders슬롯사이트� have been reframed as 슬롯사이트œgender incongruence.슬롯사이트� Gender nonconformity, is now a part of a chapter on sexual health, rather than being listed with mental disorders.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Best LGBTQ Moments of 2018: Section 377 Decriminalised, and 5 Great Events In The Global Queer Community.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천

LGBT rights director at the Human Rights Watch, Graeme Reid was quoted in media reports as saying, 슬롯사이트œThe WHO슬롯사이트™s removal of 슬롯사이트˜gender identity disorder슬롯사이트� from its diagnostic manual will have a liberating effect on transgender people worldwide. Governments should swiftly reform national medical systems and laws that require this now officially outdated diagnosis.슬롯사이트� It is surely a significant development for transgender adolescents and adults, who may soon be able to seek medical care, without being viewed as mentally disordered.

With this major development, activists are now hoping that ICD-II will be implemented by the WHO슬롯사이트™s 194 member states over the next three years. In many countries around the world, such as Japan, Spain and Turkey, still follow the now outdated ICD framework, requiring a mental health diagnosis to legally change one슬롯사이트™s name or legal gender marker. Again countries such as Argentina, Malta, Nepal and Norway have reportedly made progress in the recent years while improving legal recognition of transgender people and not demanding diagnoses.
