Possible Additions of Conversion Therapy for Genderqueer Children
Hey all. I was scrolling through this page, and noticed that there isn't anything really referring to how 'gender identity disorder' was previously listed in the DSM and had several 'treatments' tantamount to conversion therapy. A good example of these practices is Kenneth Zucker and his practice at Toronto's Centre for Addiction and Mental Health: Gender Identity Service before it was shut down. There is a wikipedia page about Kenneth Zucker which we could include, and there have been several books written about him and his practices, such as "Trans Kids: Being Gendered in the Twenty-First Century" written by Tey Meadow. Just felt that this is important information regarding how gender non-conformity was viewed in the medical field and how that has changed (though very little).

Claims not cited
In the second paragraph of the Social status for Men vs Women section, a claim has not been cited. I have not been able to find a source to back up the claim made. I think this should be addressed to clean up the article.

- @Walvarez2: I just did a cleanup to your recent addition; I felt the use of the word 'deviant' didn't fit the overall tone of the article and I tried to clean it up a little (for example, to phrases like 'non-conforming' individual').
- I don't have access to some of the linked references, so I would look to others to also comment on the specific content.

Gender variance → Gender nonconformity – According to Google Ngrams, gender nonconformity is the more commonly used term. The article should be named with its common name. Urchincrawler (talk) 16:32, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support - also supported by note hits in scholar gender noncomformity vs gender variance, so agreed per WP:COMMONNAME we should rename the title. Raladic (talk) 17:08, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
