Not so fast.

Being an investigational science does not disqualify psychology's finding and assertions as valid, nor does it mean that we shouldn't take what psychology says as concrete. Please keep in mind that many, many schools of science are investigational, like the examples I gave. Also keep in mind that every single scientific book and journal out there are based off what "investigational" sciences say is correct.

Just because something is investigational does not mean is it not right. It's just that what we think is "right" evolved over time. And right now, at this point in history, the scientific community believes that homosexuality is valid, and it believes that gender identity and expression are valid, and it believes that GID/HBS is valid.

Your response makes me think that you do not fully understand what being an investigational science means, dude... investigational is not synonymous to imaginary. It just means "this is what we believe to be true and correct, until such evidence comes forth as to make us question this conclusion again.” Which does happen, often.
