[Transsexualism or internalized homophobia--case study].
The objective of the paper is the presentation of ideas on human sexuality development, disorders concerning this area, particularly transsexualism, homosexualism and social stigmatization of homosexuals with its consequences. Symptoms reported and identified by adolescents such as sexual identity disorder, can masque a different problem, for instance lack of self-acceptance of homosexual orientation in a person from a conservative environment. The presented case study illustrates this problem.
