the SS in 1935 by Walther Darre. In 1936 it was attached to Hitler's Reichsführer-SS and led by chief of police Heinrich Himmler. By 1937, it

Disgusting perverts!

1. A discredited “treatment” for homosexuality in which the
patient is given electric shock or some other noxious stimulus
while looking at photos of homosexual activity.

2. Two psychoanalysts who had made their careers on theories of
homosexuality as psycho-pathology.

3. The first openly gay president of the APA and, along with Dr.
Pillard, a recipient of the John E Fryer, MD, Award for LGBT

Abstract

Twenty years have passed since the American Psychiatric
Association (APA) voted, in 1973, to remove "Ego-syntonic
Homosexuality" from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of
Mental Disorders (DSM). The present study investigates the
influence of the patient's sexual orientation on the therapist's
perception of the former's mental health. Four hundred and
seventeen Israeli therapists (psychiatrists, clinical
psychologists, and social workers) participated in the study,
representing a cross-section of professionals in the mental
health services in Israel. The measures included a demographic
questionnaire and a perceived-severity scale of rating.

Participants were assigned case histories where a hypothetical
patient was heterosexual or ego-syntonic homosexual.
Attributions of severity of mental status were found to differ
as a function of sexual orientation of patient. Results are
discussed in terms of the latent function of psychotherapy,
considering the contrast between the liberal political attitudes
and the secular way of life of the therapists on the one hand
and their conservatism in the clinical domain on the other hand.
