There are actually so many papers from the 70’s and 80’s about psychodynamic treatment of GID. It was NOT inevitable that medical interventions would become the main way these feelings are “treated.”
Putting “treated” in quotes bc we are at a point where trans ppl openly talk about GD symptoms increasing after hormones, so the logic of these interventions benign motivated by decreased distress is often not at play.
I don’t know much about the treatment in those days, was it... good? As in, accepting of gender nonconformity instead of just “play with your cars/guns like a good boy”?
It’s a real mixed bag + I wish I had the case studies at hand. I had a friend who was doing a deep dive in that research and clinicians were in the mix who considered cases successful when patients came to a gay or lesbian identity rather than needing to transition.
