Enforcing social and cultural norms is not the job of a doctor

Coming up with research which shows homosexuality is an illness is not the pursuit of science.

However the fact remains that certain types of people do less well in life and die earlier. This is preventable stuff but it takes a change in thinking. I'm not sure this is possible for doctors. It is too hard for those who've come to think of the human cindition as an illness to think outside the box.

Yes, there is biopsychosocial cause. Yes, a prognosis can be establisheed if you look hard enough and change prognosis from what it used to mean to include something else.

But everything that is human is of biopsychosocial cause. What doctors do is apply judgements to the expression of different types of human being in whatever time or place. They draw fictional lines around normality using pseudoscience.

Every generation brings a debate about these false norms of wellness and illness of the mind, norms which relate to impacts from the illness of society.

A healthy, normal society doesn't have these illnesses where socially different or mentally different people do less well.

The profession who is the arbitor often without oversight is the medical profession. By some fluke the medical profession absorbed the caretakers of asylums as doctors and so the real madness began.
