what were the 3 historical theories of homosexuality

pathology immaturity normal variation

pathology theory would state, of course, that homosexuality was a disease that differs from normal heterosexual development (arising from some internal defect or external pathological agent). Some thought excessive mothering caused homosexuality. Theories of immaturity would state that homosexual feelings/behaviors at a younger age are somewhat normal, but homosexuality in adults was stunted growth. Theories of normal variation regard homosexuality as a phenomenon that occurs naturally, like left-handedness. It's in line with the contemporary belief that people are "born gay" and discards any notion of homosexuality as something that should be pathologized
