The judge who will represent Spain in the Human Rights Court links homosexuality and diseases

GAYLES.TV.- That transsexuals should undergo therapies «psychological and psychiatric" or what "without any doubt homosexual they end up developing different pathologies»Are some of the ideas that the new Spanish judge of the Strasbourg Human Rights Court, María Elósegui, has manifested in books and interviews. This professor of Philosophy of Law collaborated in the draft of the Law of Equality of the PSOE and since the year 2013 integrates a commission of the Council of Europe against racism.

«Those who build and carry out their sexual behavior according to their biological sex will develop a balanced and healthy behavior, and those who insist on going against their biology will develop different pathologies. That's clear«, Affirms in an interview published by Almundi. «For many of these, biological sex and gender, that is, social roles are not related, so that we could build our sexual identity on the sidelines or with our backs to our biological sex. In the book we see how this construction of sexual identity apart from biological sex is feasible due to human freedom since human beings are not determined by biology. But the fact that we can do it (always within limits, since we cannot change our male or female DNA), does not mean that the balance is positive, but that it will affect the construction of the personality. So the result is not indifferent«, Affirms in that same portal linked to Opus Dei.

María Elósegui and the gender

The interview is not wasted, Elósegui insists on gender issues and affirms that there is no third sex: "To begin, we clarify something very simple, such as the thesis that there is no third sex and that every man or woman is that man or woman. We also try to clarify many concepts that are generally used with considerable confusion in the media, confusing the citizens. We medically and scientifically distinguish concepts such as states intersex or hermaphroditism, transsexuality, and homosexuality. Each one of them is very different and sometimes confused ».

In an article published in The Trade The judge of the Human Rights Court doubts that surgeries paid for with public money are the best way out for a person transsexual and slide as a solution «psychological-psychiatric therapies"Based on the alleged existence of" numerous scientific journals "that defend it.
