George isn’t the first distinguished professor to speak out on this topic. As we shared last week, Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University and former psychiatrist–in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital Dr. Paul R. McHugh dropped the truth bomb that it’s a scientific fact that “transgendered men do not become women, nor do transgendered women become men.”

McHugh, who has studied transgendered people for 40 years, went on to say:Gender dysphoria—the official psychiatric term for feeling oneself to be of the opposite sex—belongs in the family of similarly disordered assumptions about the body, such as anorexia nervosa and body dysmorphic disorder,” said McHugh.

“Its treatment should not be directed at the body as with surgery and hormones any more than one treats obesity-fearing anorexic patients with liposuction,” he said.
