Find out about the development of sexual identity and affectional orientation. Consider the impact of prejudices against same-sex oriented individuals. Discover the importance of self-identification and the process of disclosing sexual identity for gender and sexual minorities (gsm) individuals. Current support for the term affectional orientation rather than sexual orientation, as the latter is thought to overemphasize the sexual component of a relationship. The term homosexual entered the english language in 1869; before then everyone was automatically classified as heterosexual.
