[edit] Benjamin's Syndrome

Neologism with no usage in published literature. This idiosyncratic use is limited to transgender advocacy websites. In addition, Benjamin Syndrome is already used to classify another condition: Hypochromic anemia with mental retardation and various craniofacial and other anomalies.

• Delete. 'Benjamin's syndrome' gives no Medline hits, 'Benjamin syndrome' gives 409 hits a quick skim of the first few pages of which suggests relate to the other condition. Espresso Addict 21:47, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Benjamin's syndrome is already mentioned in the articles on transsexualism and gender identity disorder. Basically, it's just another model of gender dysphoria. It has been suggested that an article on Taxonomy of transsexualism be written, and information on this model could be placed there. It also seems like this article was written with the intent of POV pushing. Andrea Parton 14:41, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
