gaychausen syndrome

Gaychausen is when someone tries to get attention and sympathy by falsifying, inducing, and/or exaggerating their gayness. They lie about symptoms or harm themselves to get the symptoms. Diagnosing and treating Munchausen syndrome is difficult because of the person’s dishonesty.

My neighbor says her 9 yr old daughter is transgender. I think she may be exaggerating her daughter's love of Monster trucks. The mother may be suffering gaychausen syndrome by proxy.
