. . .
It definitely is not true that homosexuality is incurable. Those who make such statements have never tried to treat it. I have always insisted that sexual perversions are as treatable and the results as rewards as the neuroses. The fact that some cases are too sever or have been too long neglected should not discourage us from treating the more suitable ones. Moreover, even those homosexuals who are too old, whose abnormality is too ingrained, and whose personalities are too rigid, may still benefit from treatment such as stilboestrol or, if their perversions are released by such circumstances as anxiety or alcohol, by help in dealing with such trigger factors.
