Male Homosexuality: An Analysis of the Pattern

  • Chapter
Understanding Homosexuality: Its Biological and Psychological Bases

Abstract

Homosexuality is the sustained erotic preference for same sexed persons when there is a free choice of partner as to sex and other attributes which may co-determine erotic attractiveness. In this definition the term ‘sex’ denotes male type or female type of externally visible gross somatic features (‘body shape’), particularly the type of external genitalia, whereas male v. female types of behaviour patterns fall among ‘other attributes’.

Thanks are due to Dr R. Langevin for invaluable criticism and help in preparing the manuscript and to the Laidlaw Foundation, Toronto, Canada, which made writing this chapter possible.
