  • Heretic TOCA plague on both your APA houses – Tom discusses the recent APA decision to give into right wing pressure and remove "Sexual Orientation" from the DSM-5. (UK)


  • APA to correct manual: Pedophilia is not a ‘sexual orientation’ - Due to presure from right wing Christian news site and a number of smaller, right-wing blogs, the APA has decided to change "sexual orientation" to "sexual interest" and deny that they intended the entry in DSM-5 to read sexual orientation. (The Washington Times,US)



  • Fight Back - It’s time to fight back. Help make these go viral. Both APAs have just released press releases in response to right wing fundamentalist complaints that the new DSM 5 classifies pedophilia as a sexual orientation. The press releases ignore the mental health of people with the diagnosis and instead advocate their prosecution—an interesting approach for so-called mental health organizations.
