With the transgender-bashing Dr. Keith Ablow unrepentant about the malicious quackery he published on the Fox News site – hysterically urging parents not to let their children watch Chaz Bono on “Dancing With The Stars” for fear they might decide they want to change gender — Chaz is showing Ablow exactly which man is going to lead this dance.

At last week’s Creative Arts Emmy Awards, Fox came begging for an interview with Chaz. Bono’s agent Howard Bragman told them where to stick it. “When Chaz was on the red carpet at the Emmys last Saturday,” Bragman says, “Fox asked for an interview. I said that since a Fox person [Dr. Ablow] recommended boycotting Chaz, we are boycotting Fox.”

Meanwhile, it remains unclear whether the Tufts University School of Medicine and the Tufts Medical Center support the anti-transgender quack Ablow in his transbashing. Tufts University Public Relations tried to blow this reporter off by saying that Ablow has a “voluntary, unpaid appointment” at the School of Medicine. Tufts’s website, however, describes the quack as an “Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry.” As for the association with Tufts Medical Center that Ablow alleges on his website, Tufts claimed Ablow isn’t associated with the hospital and would have him remove that claim from his site. The claim, however, as of this writing remains on the professional trans-basher’s site. See below for our information request to Tufts, unanswered as of publication.

Tufts University needs to come clean about whether it supports or rejects Ablow’s trans-bashing quackery. A psychiatrist superior to Ablow at the Tuft’s School of Medicine must make a public statement as to whether they agree or disagree with Ablow’s published column. How is the public to know where Tufts stands on this, if it keeps Ablow on its professional roster after he published shameful, anti-scientific, transgender-bashing hate speech on the Fox News website? We mustn’t forget, either, that Ablow is in practice as a forensic psychiatrist and quite possibly does not treat LGBTers with due impartiality when they are involved in his investigations.

We’re rooting for Chaz Bono to show up the quack Dr. Ablow as a total and utter jerk. Ablow’s peers have already gone some distance towards that goal. The American Psychiatric Association’s Dr. Jack Drescher published a rebuttal, “The Doctor is Out (of Touch).” Refuting Ablow’s hateful drivel, APA President Dr. John Oldham said, “There is no evidence that viewing a television game show with a transgender contestant would induce Gender Identity Disorder in young people.”  And PsychCentral’s Dr. John M. Grohol published an Ablow smackdown “Don’t Let Your Kids Watch Dr. Keith Ablow.”

And, we’re just absolutely thrilled about powerhouse attorney Gloria Allred’s efforts in organizing viewing and dancing parties nationwide in support of our man Chaz!

To Kim Thurler, Tufts University Public Relations Director:

Dear Kim:

While I thank you for your efforts in getting a reply to me, the reply is non-specific and wishy-washy.

In his voluntary, unpaid appointment at the Tufts University School of Medicine, what does Dr. Keith Ablow do?

Give lectures implying that praying to God will cure gender dysphoric patients of gender dysphoria, and make them heteronormative?

That is what his article implied, and from Tufts’ response to me I must conclude that the School of Medicine would permit him to present his emotional and commercially-driven, anti-scientific opinions in a lecture.

Can you supply me with a documented record of his activity at Tufts since the time of his appointment there?

I am an investigative journalist, trying to learn exactly what is going on between Dr. Ablow and the Tufts University School of Medicine.

Take the social bigotry against transgendered person out of this equation, and see what you get.  Supposing Ablow were instead a practicing dentist, and instead had published an article on the Fox news site saying that when teenagers have impacted wisdom teeth, the right thing to do is to remove their front teeth and then pray to God that the impacted molars heal.

Would Tufts continue to keep such a quack on its roster?

I’m going to give it to you straight; the current appearance is that Ablow is exploiting his association with Tufts in order to give an unjustified imprimatur of scientific respectability to his transphobic bigotry and quackery, and that Tufts is continuing its association with him, despite his quackery, because of his media successes.

You claim that Tufts does not discriminate on the basis of gender identity and expression, yet to employ a certified psychiatrist who publicly expresses non-scientific anti-trans bigotry ipso facto creates an unsafe environment for transgendered persons at your institution. The impression frankly is, that because of Ablow’s high profile on Fox, et cetera, if Tufts had to choose between throwing a transgendered student, faculty member et cetera under the bus, and dismissing Ablow, it would throw the trans person under the bus.

You didn’t even provide me with a statement from one of Tufts’ psychiatric professionals superior to Ablow, agreeing or disagreeing with his statements about the science on gender dysphoria.

How am I supposed to know whether they agree or disagree with him?

The results of societal bigotry against trans persons are seen in such crimes as the savage, merciless beating of Chrissy Lee Polis in a Maryland McDonald’s.  The society has politicians, and as we see, even medical professionals who encourage that bigotry.

You have a public relations red hot emergency on your hands, but you are treating it as though somebody had invited you to afternoon tea.

PS – Last week, your office told me it would contact Ablow to have him remove from the bio page on his website the allegedly false claim that he is “on faculty at the Tufts New England Medical Center.” Nonetheless, that claim continues to appear on Ablow’s site. I know your office pointed out, that is no longer the name of your hospital, but Ablow is still giving the public to believe that he is associated with the Tufts hospital, by whatever name you want to give it.  How am I to know what is going on?  Did you tell me he doesn’t have the association with the hospital, just to put me off?
