#FiftyYears ago, ‘#homosexuality’ was #dropped from #APA’s #list of #mentaldisorders.

#BarbaraGittings & #KayLahusen were #lesbian #activists who emphatically opposed the label. They lived together in #Philadelphia and convinced another #Philadelphian, #gay #psychiatrist Dr. #JohnEFryer, to #address an #APA #annualconvention as #DrHAnonymous in May 1972 in #Dallas, #Texas.
