It is by no means universally accepted that homosexuality is "normal." Indeed, the determination to stop diagnosing such disorders was not done by the members of the American Psychiatric Association but rather by a small group of the Board.

Exactly, the re-definition was 100% political, with no medical justification whatsoever. It will always be a mental disorder, no matter what the current fashion is.

It was ONLY pressure from the gay lobby on the APA to remove homosexuality from it's list of disorders that lead to them doing so.

They actually had to include pro-gay activists on the board that made the decision.

Of course even a child can see the natural biological male-female design for sexuality and see that homosexuality is clearly a disorder.
