Dealing with homosexuality in the family: How to handle it?
in Psychology ·
I kind of see where everyone else is coming from, but I wouldn't go as far as calling this deviation some kind of mental illness... honestly, you never really know what kind of hormonal hand Mother Nature is gonna deal you. Like, it happens all the time—hormonal imbalances or issues with the pituitary gland and how that feedback loop works. You’ve got tons of people dealing with hypogonadism, which leads to low testosterone in men, or an excess of androgens, basically shifting things toward female hormones. So, it actually makes sense that someone might be more attracted to their own sex under those circumstances. It’s super manageable with modern medicine nowadays, though. There are plenty of theories and real-world cases out there if anyone's actually curious, but I'll leave it at that...
