Gay Personality And Sexual Labeling: Critical Clinical Issues

Autor Phd John Dececco
en Limba Engleză Paperback – iul 1985
Are scientists--who by definition are supposed to be objective and clinical in their theories--actually assuming common cultural prejudices and moral standards when it comes to their research on homosexuality? Some of the best minds in sexual liberation take a hard look at how homosexuality is still defined and viewed by established schools of thought and propose fascinating and often controversial ideas on the true nature of the gay personality and identity. This challenging book explores how gay people can “label” themselves or avoid the gay label entirely while still being homosexual, as well as how others label gay people.

Descriere

This important volume addresses the subject of sexual identity within a clinical context. Leading authorities use the frameworks of depth psychology, diagnostic classification, therapy, and psychomedical research on the hormonal basis of homosexuality to explore how one's sexual identity develops. They also take a close look at how homosexuality is still defined by established schools of thought and propose fascinating and often controversial ideas on the true nature of the gay personality and identity.
