Abstract

In this issue a descriptive study of various aspects of homosexual orientation among adolescents is presented. In agreement with previous American studies, the authors identify three separate domains of homosexuality: attraction, fantasy and self-identification. This knowledge is important in understanding an adolescent struggling with homosexual thoughts. The development of an homosexual identity is a process connected with serious health hazards related to both physical and mental health. Most adolescents are not given adequate support because heterosexuality is considered the norm in most cultures.
