I know someone who has worked as a psychiatrist in gender with kids and teens. She and I used to be in the same book group for years.
She's actually a highly moralistic person, and from what I can see, is overall a competent* and careful practitioner.
*Now, when I say competent, what I mean is she studied, did well, works carefully, is empathetic, and so on. She is also someone who is very concerned with being good, accepting, open, and tolerant. And my sense after spending a lot of time discussing literature with her is that she also has a lot of black and white thinking and seems to me to have a very difficult time understanding other people's thinking and motivations, and becomes really distressed when good people think the "wrong" things.
She really believes that her job is to help people be themselves in a healthy way, which is true of course, but she seems sure that with gender this means just accepting their self-assessment. I think it's because she is a good person and that's what the good people have said.
It was a bit eye opening to me to see how someone who seems so lacking in psychological insight went into that kind of work, and became very well respected in it, without, to my mind, having the basic talents (insight, groundedness) that work requires.
