Dorais and Lajeunesse analyse the adverse ways being stigmatized as homosexual affects personality and behaviour, discerning four types of reaction: the ‘perfect boy, ‘ whose perfectionism and asexuality are an attempt to minimize the difference between how he is perceived and what he is supposed to be; the ‘chameleon, ‘ who attempts to keep everyone from suspecting his secret but constantly feels like an impostor; the ‘token fag, ‘ who serves as a scapegoat to his peers, especially at school, and suffers a consequent rejection and lack of self-esteem; and the ‘rebel, ‘ who actively rejects any stigma based on his sexual orientation and non-conformity. They show that those who are heterosexual but suspected of being homosexual are most at risk of suicide and make recommendations for suicide prevention.
