There are still plenty of countries and significant chunk of the conservatative US which treats it like a illness, that's not the point.

The discussion about 2decades seems to about accepted academic outcome not policy execution, which is always varied.

FGM or homeopathy or chinese medicine is still a problem in many parts of the world. We don't think validaty of science or anatomy depends on your country.

Definitely, science shouldn't depend on the country, but the USA isn't the world either, and the person I was replying to equated the USA with the world. At least they should have used the year when ICD-10 came out.

Yes, you are right , there is fairly blurry line on when something becomes accepted .

ICD-10 could be one unambiguous way to classify.
