Abstract
Until recent years, homosexuality was considered to be a psychiatric disorder and no attention was given to treating same-sex sexually dysfunctional partners - either male or female. This study reports on the treatment of approximately 500 sexually dysfunctional gay men by 10 Southern California psychotherapists over a five-year period. Six aspects of sexual dysfunction in gay males are explored: 1) the psychotherapeutic process; 2) characteristics of men reporting homosexual dysfunction; 3) type and incidence of dysfunction; 4) etiology of dysfunction; 5) treatment and recidivism; and 6) duration and impact of dysfunction. The literature in this area is also reviewed.
