Description
Summary:An adequate understanding of psychosexuality requires a conceptual model from which conclusions can be drawn. Most contemporary sex research and counseling adopts secular and humanistic assumptions about relationships. While such research is factually valuable, it disregards the spiritual aspects of man and fails to allow a moral dimension by which to evaluate behavior. A three-dimensional model is, therefore, proposed to represent the continuum of homosexuality-heterosexuality, of orientation and activity, and of morality. The specific case of homosexual activity is examined in the light of this model.
