First published 1968, DSM-II (the send edn of the Amerin classifitn of mental disorrs, and a forenner of DSM-5) still listed homosexualy as a mental disorr. In this, the DSM followed a long tradn medice and psychiatry, which the neteenth century appropriated homosexualy om the Church and, what mt have seemed like an élan of enlightenment, promoted om s to mental disorr.

Homosexualy was classified as a mental disorr DSM one form or another until the publitn of DSM-III-R 1987, chaired by psychiatrist Robert Spzer, M. The diagnosis was first removed by the APA 1973 unr great external prsure, but a ndn lled "ego-dystonic homosexualy" remaed the manual until 1987.
