DSM and Homosexuality

When my Psych professor (Joe Mustari, Wilbur Wright College, Chicago, IL) stated that the APA had originally listed homosexuality in the DSM as a "disorder", and finally (apparently begrudgingly) removed it in the 1974(?) edition, I decided that this manual's pages will likely make an excellent substitute for toilet paper.
