Talk:Dual-role transvestism

What is this article about?

The article says "The International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) list three diagnostic criteria for 'Dual-role transvestism' (F64.1):" after which I expected a list of those "three diagnostic criteria" (the statement ends with a colon!), but nowhere could that list be seen. So I checked the reference given, which doesn't mention "dual-role transvestism" at all ("transvestism" is mentioned once in the text - as "Cross-dressing (transvestism)" - and once in a reference title, ""dual role" or "dual-role" are not mentioned at all and neither is "F64.1"). So then I checked the defition of F64.1 on ICD which says:

Clinical Information

• A disorder characterized by recurrent sexual urges, fantasies, or behaviors in a heterosexual male involving cross-dressing.
• Disorder characterized by recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors involving cross-dressing in a heterosexual male. The fantasies, urges, or behaviors cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other areas of functioning. (from apa, dsm-iv, 1994)
• Severe gender dysphoria, coupled with a persistent desire for the physical characteristics and social roles that connote the opposite biological sex. (apa, dsm-iv, 1994)
• The act of dressing like and adopting the behavior of the opposite sex, often for sexual gratification.
• The urge to belong to the opposite sex that may include surgical procedures to modify the sex organs in order to appear as the opposite sex.

I here note that this Wikipedia article says "but don't have a sexual motive or want gender reassignment surgery", which I think is contradicted by "characterized by recurrent sexual urges", "characterized by recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges" and "urge to belong to the opposite sex that may include surgical procedures" on the ICD page. --Episcophagus (talk) 13:20, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Replying to myself! The WHO definition of F64.1 says:

The wearing of clothes of the opposite sex for part of the individual's existence in order to enjoy the temporary experience of membership of the opposite sex, but without any desire for a more permanent sex change or associated surgical reassignment, and without sexual excitement accompanying the cross-dressing.

Gender identity disorder of adolescence or adulthood, nontranssexual type

Excl.: fetishistic transvestism (F65.1)

So the article seems correct (and the page I found wrong) in that part of my question. However, the list of the "three diagnostic criteria" is still nowhere to be found. --Episcophagus (talk) 14:38, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

The ICD is updated regularly, which may explain differences in diagnostic criteria lists, as well as terminology.

First sentence

The current version of the first sentence can't possibly be right:

Dual-role transvestism is the formal diagnosis used by psychologists and physicians to describe people who wear clothes of the opposite sex to experience being the opposite sex temporarily, but don't have a sexual motive or want gender reassignment surgery.

This would slap a diagnosis of Dual-role transvestism on bigender individuals who decide against GRS, and that's nonsense. I'd like to see the source which formulates the definition this way. This text must be a misstatement by someone who either didn't understand what the source was saying, or was not able to express what the source was saying. Or, it's original research.
