L'omosessualità ha sempre rappresentato un tema scottante per gli psicoanalisti, divisi, fin dai tempi di Freud,tra quanti la vedono come uno stato patologico (di volta in volta definito perversione, condizione di immaturirà psichica ecc.) e quanti la considerano semplicemente una delle tante possibilità di espressione della sessualità umana.
''Essere omosessuali'' è il primo libro che descrive da una prospettiva non patologica lo sviluppo psichico omosessuale. Privilegianmdol'indagone sulla omosessualità maschile, e rileggendo in ^chiave critica non tanto l'opera Siegmund Freud quanto alcune delle sue derivazioni nell'ambito sella psicanalisi americana, Richard Isay affianca le proprie riflessioni teoriche alracconto diclasi clinici ricavati da un'esperienza più che ventennale di psicoterapie con uomini gay. Isay giunge alla conclusione che la persona omosessuale ha un'identità psichica integrata, matura e suscettibile alla patologia né più né meno di quella eterosessuale, e che ogni tentativo di modificare l'orientamento sessuale ha consequenze dolorose sia per l'individuo che per la società
