Representatives of the nation's top psychiatric group approved a statement urging legal recognition of same-sex unions, on Sunday.

The statement, if approved by the association's directors in July, would make the American Psychiatric Association the first major medical group to take such a stance.

The statement, approved on a voice vote, supports same-sex marriage and benefits "in the interest of maintaining and promoting mental health."

1. Glad they at least get this

Thank you therapists..!

Now when are you going to admit rigid defended magical/ fundamentalist thinking and authoritarian personalities are dangerous mental disorders and do something to make sure people with sociopath,authoritarian personality,overweening ambition, or true believer tendencies are called sick,because that is what they are,and so they don't get to use manipulation,con man techniques,theft,and P.R. to steal political,military,psychological,administrative,corporate or social power to cover up misdeeds and yet allows through use of false fronts the unchecked expression of their bad character at the same time..this game that puts a horrible burden on the rest of society?
