There was a recent Dutch study conducted within the Netherlands, the most gay-affirming society on the planet, and has been for decades, that showed that homosexuals are far more likely to be alcoholics, to suffer single or even multiple mental disorders and on and on...This agrees with other studies within highly gay-affirming socities like San Francisco, New Zealand, etc.. and they all show the same thing.

Blows out of the water that " internalized homophobia" is responsible for homosexuals higher mental problem rates.

There are also studies that show a high correlation of homosexuality with being raped/molested as a child by an adult man. Just Google, you'll find these studies.

I read an interesting article by a psychiatrist who believed that homosexuality was a symptom of other mental disorders. He found that when he treated the other problems of his homosexual patients, their "same sex attraction" went away, too!

Well, yes and no.

The charge that society, or individuals, are "homophobic" is in fact a projection of inner dread.

Naming that inner dread "internalized homophobia" is verbose and imprecise, but it's not entirely incorrect.
