Quote from this book
"In the preceding chapter, we made a survey of the principal deviations of aim: voyeurism, exhibitionism and sado-masochism. We shall now begin the study of deviations of object, those perversions in which, generally speaking, the aim pursued by the individual is the same as that sought by the normal subject, but in which the object is abnormal

Of all deviations of object, the most widespread is unquestionably the 'love which dares not tell its name', homosexuality, as opposed to heterosexuality or love between individuals of different views."
