Rapid change in social customs with respect to sexual relations and family structure has accentuated the problem of differential diagnosis. This paper considers the difficulties in distinguishing those forms of behavioral that represent healthy exploration in the service of coping with social change from those that represent individual pathology masked by social change. Case examples illustrative of this contemporary clinical dilemma are offered.
