WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN “GAY” AND “HOMOSEXUAL"? IS ONLY BY GENR?
No, n cuando la mayoría los homosexual viven vidas felic y exosas, algunas personas homosexual o bisexual puen br un mb en su orientación sexual a través la terapia, a menudo o rultado acción por parte miembros su faia o gpos religsos. Las personas gay, lbianas y bisexual puen br ayuda psilógi n el proco la revelación su orientación sexual o el sarrollo trategias para lidiar n el prejuic, pero la mayoría opta por la terapia por los mismos motivos y problemas la vida que nducen a las personas heterosexual a la nsulta los profnal la salud mental.
En 1997, el Consejo Reprentant la Asociación promulgó una rolución que reafirma la oposición la psilogía a la homofobia en el tratamiento y explicó en talle el recho un cliente a un tratamiento imparcial y a la totermación. Estuds que paran gpos niños criados por padr homosexual y heterosexual scubren que no hay diferencias en el sarrollo entre los dos gpos niños en cuatro áreas crítis: su teligencia, su adaptación psilógi, adaptación social y popularidad n s amigos.
“LA HOMOSEXUALIDAD Y LO GAY NO SON LO MISMO: HAN SER DIFERENCIADAS UNA LA OTRA" AFIRMA EL DR. CHRISTIAN ISRAEL HUERTA SOLANO
De hecho, se tectó que el proco sarrollo intidad las lbianas, hombr gay y bisexual nomado "stape" (revelación su orientación sexual) se encuentra totalmente relacnado n la adaptación psilógi; cuanto más posiva la intidad gay, lbiana o bisexual, mejor la salud mental una persona y mayor su totima. Estuds realizados en California a mediados la déda 1990 diron que si una quta parte todas las lbianas y más una cuarta parte todos los hombr gay que participaron en el tud, fueron víctimas un lo motivado por od basado en su orientación sexual. Las vtigacn scubrieron que las personas que tienen actus más posivas hacia los hombr gay, las lbianas y los bisexual son aquellas que dicen que nocen bien a una o más personas gay, lbianas y bisexual, n ecuencia o amigo o pañero trabajo.
Anyway, gays took back the word "gay" bee was beg ed as a slur agast them, much like the n-word, much like the word faggot (and if you are unfaiar wh the rivatn of the word faggot, I suggt you n to your dictnary right now, sce is no where near as fortable as the rivatn of the word lbian).
Suffice to say that the word homosexual is an outdated term all but the most tached scientific wrg; that the word lbian appli strictly to women; and that the word gay n refer to both men and women, but ually refers to men. There are some who would argue that "homosexuals" are those who meet the clil fn of beg more attracted to members of the same sex than those of the oppose sex (given that most theori of sexual orientatn today dite that sexual orientatn is a ntuum, that heterosexualy and homosexualy are more than or ls than differenc rather than dichotomi). The term gay is equently ed as a synonym for homosexual; female homosexualy is often referred to as different tim and different cultur, homosexual behavur has been varly approved of, tolerated, punished, and banned.

Morn velopments Attus toward homosexualy are generally flux, partially as a rult of creased polil activism (see gay rights movement) and efforts by homosexuals to be seen not as aberrant personali but as differg om “normal” dividuals only their sexual orientatn. The nflictg views of homosexualy—as a variant but normal human sexual behavur on one hand, and as psychologilly viant behavur on the other—rema prent most societi the 21st century, but they have been largely rolved ( the profsnal sense) most veloped untri. The Ksey report of 1948, for example, found that 30 percent of adult Amerin mal among Ksey’s subjects had engaged some homosexual activy and that 10 percent reported that their sexual practice had been exclively homosexual for a perd of at least three years between the ag of 16 and 55.
After the 1969 Stonewall rts, which New York Cy policemen raid a gay bar and met wh staed ristance, many homosexuals were embolned to intify themselv as gay men or lbians to iends, to relativ, and even to the public at large. In rponse to their activism, many jurisdictns enacted laws banng discrimatn agast homosexuals, and an creasg number of employers Ameri and European untri agreed to offer “domtic partner” benefs siar to the health re, life surance and, some s, pensn benefs available to heterosexual married upl.
In one such stance, Albania repealed s sodomy statut 1995, and gay upl Amsterdam 2001 were legally married unr the same laws that ern heterosexual marriage (rather than unr laws that allowed them to “register” or form “domtic” partnerships).
