The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (abbreviation: DSM) is a publication of works that classify psychiatric disorders. The DSM is created and published by the American Psychiatric Association.
Criticisms[edit | edit source]
There are a number of different criticisms that have been leveled against the DSM and its usefulness as a diagnostic manual.
Lack of Objective Analysis[edit | edit source]
The DSM does not require the use of objective analysis.
Questionable Pathologization[edit | edit source]
Homosexuality[edit | edit source]
The DSM-I and DSM-II classified homosexuality as personality disorders under abnormal sexual deviations.[1][2]
Transvestitism[edit | edit source]
Transvestism was classified in the DSM-I and DSM-II as a sexual deviation; while the subsequent iterations classify it as a paraphilic disorder.[1][2][3][4] This classification has garnered controversy from transvestites as they argue that classification associates transvestism with stigma and imply that transvestism is a mental disorder.
Sadism & Masochism[edit | edit source]
Sadism and masochism was classified in the DSM-I and DSM-II as a sexual deviation;[1][2] while the subsequent iterations classify them as a paraphilic disorder.[3][5][6] This classification has garnered criticism from BDSM practitioners for potential discrimination of general BDSM practitioners; there was no requirement for clinically significant impairment; and perpetuation of stigma around BDSM.[7] However, the DSM-5 introduced a criterion that Sexual Sadism and Masochism Disorder must cause clinically significant distress.[8]
Financial conflicts of interest[edit | edit source]
A large portion of the designing staff of the DSM-IV had received funding, in some method, from pharmaceutical companies.[9]
