homosexual 同性恋的
homo-,相同的，sex,性别。即同性别的，后来被心理学家用来指同性恋，并逐渐代替sexual inversion.值得指出的是，该词本身在过去长期不为其它心理学家所接受，认为这个杜撰出来的词没有准确传达出同性恋这一词义。

- homosexual (adj.)
- 1892, in C.G. Chaddock"s translation of Krafft-Ebing"s "Psychopathia Sexualis," from German homosexual, homosexuale (by 1880, in Gustav Jäger), from homo-, comb. form of Greek homos "same" (see homo- (1)) + Latin-based sexual.
"Homosexual" is a barbarously hybrid word, and I claim no responsibility for it. It is, however, convenient, and now widely used. "Homogenic" has been suggested as a substitute. [H. Havelock Ellis, "Studies in Psychology," 1897]
Sexual inversion (1883) was an earlier clinical term for it in English. The noun is recorded by 1895. In technical use, either male or female; but in non-technical use almost always male. Slang shortened form homo first attested 1929. See also uranian.
