AbstractThe Amerin Psychiatric Associatn and the Amerin Psychologil Associatn have suggted for many years now that there is signifint empiril evince supportg the claim that homosexualy is a normal variant of human sexual orientatn as opposed to a mental disorr. This paper summariz and analyz that purported scientific evince and explas that much (if not all) of the evince is irrelevant and do not support the homosexualy-is-not-a-mental-disorr claim. As a rult of their ficienci and arbrars, the credibily those two groups that are typilly emed thorative and tstworthy is lled to summary: At one time, homosexualy was nsired to be mentally disorred.

Texas, AdjtmentIntroductnShortly before this paper was wrten, a Catholic nun was acced of “g spect anecdot, antiquated data, and broad generalizatns to monize gays and lbians” (Funk 2014). The accatn of g outdated material and viatg to realms beyond the spe of one's expertise impli two thgs; first, impli that there actually is rmatn that is more up-to-date than what the nun prented on the topic of homosexualy, and sendly impli that there are credible experts who are more qualified to teach or speak on the topic of homosexualy. When one brows the Inter, one will see that apparently many of the so-lled experts on mental disorrs claim that there is a signifint amount of scientific evince support of the claim that homosexualy is not a mental disorr.

Hence, is necsary to provi a summary and analysis of that purported up-to-date scientific evince which supports the claim that homosexualy is not a mental two groups that are typilly emed thorative and credible experts on mental disorrs the Uned Stat are the Amerin Psychologil Associatn (APA) and the Amerin Psychiatric Associatn; th, I will prent their stanc on homosexualy and then analyze the “scientific evince” that they claim supports their stanc.

As a rult of their ficienci, the credibily of the Amerin Psychiatric Associatn and the APA, at least their claims regardg human sexualy, is lled to Amerin Psychologil Associatn and the Amerin Psychiatric AssociatnI will beg by scribg the APA and the Amerin Psychiatric Associatn, and I will then prent their stanc on the topic of homosexualy.

One document begs wh Sigmund Frd, who suggted that homosexualy was “nothg to be ashamed of, no vice, no gradatn, nnot be classified as an illns, but a variatn of sexual functn” (Frd 1960, 21, 423–4). They note that Frd attempted to change one woman's sexual orientatn, but after failg to do so, “Frd nclud that attempts to change homosexual sexual orientatn were likely to be unsuccsful” (Glassgold et al. )Aled KseyThe APA Task Force document proceeds by cg two books wrten by Aled Ksey 1948 and 1953 (Sexual Behavr the Human Male and Sexual Behavr the Human Female):At the same time that the pathologizg views of homosexualy Amerin psychiatry and psychology were beg dified, untervailg evince was accumulatg that this stigmatizg view was ill found.

The publitn of Sexual Behavr the Human Male and Sexual Behavr the Human Female monstrated that homosexualy was more mon than prevly assumed, th suggtg that such behavrs were part of a ntuum of sexual behavrs and orientatns. 2009, 22)Implied that statement is a “normaly” of the sexual behavrs, specifilly homosexualy, on the ntuum; for a study to be ced as “untervailg evince” of the claim that homosexualy is abnormal, the study mt suggt that homosexualy is normal. (Ksey and Pomeroy 1948, emphasis add)In regards to homosexualy, Ksey (and the APA thors) nclus that bee some people experience sexual attractn to the same genr, then tomatilly follows that there is a normal ntuum of sexual attractns.
