| Peru Declaring Transgenderism a Mental Illness |
| 2024-05-16 |
| [Breitbart] The government of Peru signed a Supreme Decree this weekend defining transexuality as a mental disorder as part of an update to the nation’s Essential Health Insurance Plan (PEAS), prompting outrage from the LGBTQIAP2S+ community. While the definition, according to the Peruvian government, seeks to give access to those identifying as transgender or other gender identities to health insurance coverage, the decree has been met with fierce backlash by local LGBTQIAP2S+ activists and politicians. The PEAS is a minimum healthcare benefit plan that Peruvian citizens receive when enrolling in the nation’s public, private, or mixed health insurance providers. PEAS provides for the basic medical procedures a citizen needs and contains a detailed list of outpatient medical care, tests, specialized consultations, and other treatments that patients may be entitled to according to their particular health condition. The controversial decree stated that, following a review of the diagnoses included in the World Health Organization’s (W.H.O.) 10th International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) that are included in the country’s PEAS health program, the omission of "seven (07) ICD-10 diagnoses" related to mental health problems were found, which, according to the decree, "should be incorporated" into the nation’s healthcare plans taking into account Peru’s mental health laws. |

| #4 ^ Very possibly. As Latin American countries illiterate and unemployable self-export to the US, many of those countries may well welcome well behaved gringos who arrive bearing cash and a desire for a sane, stable community to live in. |

| #3 That's because it is. That's how it works. By their own definition. Using it as a vessel to peep on little girls or purposefully and powerfully dominate weaker people are illnesses too. Am I living to see the day when South America is making sense and North America is full of bananas? |
