  • How to Be a Pervert: A Modest Philosophical Critique of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Patrick Singy Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) DSM Function Psychiatry Homosexuality Mental Disorder This paper is divided into three parts. I begin with a short history of the way American psychiatrists have defined mental disorder in general, and paraphilias (sexual perversions) in particular, from the 1950s to 2013. I look at how the different editions of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) have articulated (or in the case of the future DSM-5, will articulate) the distinction between health and disease. In the second part I suggest how psychiatrists might want to modify their approach to the definition of mental disorder. In the third part I explain why the paraphilias in particular should be removed from the current psychiatric classification of diseases. 2012 artículo científico 0123-885X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=81523250012 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=815 Revista de Estudios Sociales application/pdf Universidad de los Andes Revista de Estudios Sociales (Colombia) Num.43
