Paul McHugh
Professor of Psychiatry, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
Former Member, U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishop's National Review Board
—Said: “It may be an intrinsic problem of American psychiatry to fall into a craze or cult-like misdirection once a decade…. Transgenderism seems to be this decade’s version.”
—Coauthored a position paper for the discredited, fringe, anti-LGBTQ hate group American College of Pediatricians in which he and his fellows insisted that “Gender Ideology Harms Children.”
—Argued that being medically accommodating to a transgender child is “like performing liposuction on an anorexic child.”
—Filed an amicus brief arguing in favor of Proposition 8 on the basis that homosexuality is a “choice.“
—Described post-surgical transgender women as “caricatures of women.”
The GLAAD Accountability Project catalogs anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and discriminatory actions of politicians, commentators, organization heads, religious leaders, and legal figures, who have used their platforms, influence and power to spread misinformation and harm LGBTQ people.
