Ray Blanchard, who was the head of the working group for the APA, in that conference is the same doctor who did a thorough study of male to female transgender. His study found that males suffering gender dysphoria wanting to transition to female fell into either one of two categories: broadly, one group were homosexuals (often homophobic and not accepting of their own homosexuality) and effeminate; the other group were autogynephilic. This means that they get turned on by the idea of themselves as a woman. These are usually the ones who transition later in life. Ray Blanchard is now being persecuted by the trans lobby, because he recognises gender dysphoria for what it is--a mental illness. Most gender-confused children and teenagers grow out of their dysphoria if left alone. However, there's now a huge industry pushing hormone-blockers and other drugs on these children.

American College of Pediatricians doesn't beat around the bush and outright calls this child abuse: http://www.mrctv.org/blog/american-college-pediatricians-calls-gender-transitioning-child-abuse

Camille Paglia has some interesting thoughts on the subject: https://youtu.be/I8BRdwgPChQ

Yes, it's child abuse. It's foisting life-changing hormone blockers on to our children and exploiting their confusion. Suicide rates of gender-confused kids don't change after they transition. So to say that allowing these children to transition is helping them is simply untrue. Many de-transition because they realise that the transition hasn't cured their gender dysphoria. Soros has spent millions funding the trans lobby. The most homophobic countries are those that pay for their citizens to have sex-change surgery. Transing kids is a form of eugenics and it's certainly child abuse. Gender is a social construct; sex is biological.
