14. Summary Statements
• Don’t attempt to “cure” a homosexual. He
is probably not medically sick.
• Be aware of your personal prejudices
conditioned by years of hearsay and
misinformation.
• Homosexuality does not necessarily require
the long term services of a psychiatrist. Of
course some cases should definitely be
referred.

15. • Personality testing and FID Rating
counseling sessions will be useful in
determining who should be recommended
for psychiatric assistants.
• Lito found counseling from the MMPI, the
WAIS, the 16 PF and the DAT results
helpful in getting to know himself. This was
greatly aided by warm and sympathetic
(relationship therapy-type) psychiatrist.
• The biggest problem of homosexual usually
has is the attitude of society towards him.

16. • Great sympathy and understanding are required of
the significant others.
• No essential relationship exist between effeminacy
and homosexuality.
• The principles of learning theory have proven
effective in changing effeminate behavior.
• Other “problems” often accompany
homosexual maladjustment.
• Intelligent young people can quite easily
grasp the significance of reinforcing
contingencies in their lives., such as
undesirable “pakikisama” experiences.

17. • The commonest source of sex information is
the peer group. Would sex education (by
parents/school/) result in a healthy attitude
towards sex?
• A recent local study(Francis de Leon, De La
Salle College, graduate counselor training
research paper) of a small sampling of high
school boys indicates what most of them
consider the homosexual “abnormal.”
