Secondary consequences included certain physical “problems,” as well as “depression and social and sexual issues."


This laundry-list of “problems” was followed by the recommendation that attention should be paid to the “psychological and social development” of people with this condition because many have “low self-esteem.” Duh!  Why wouldn’t people with this condition feel badly about themselves, since the organization that “represents” them promotes such negative perspectives?​ Click here to continue.
