BACKGROUND: Masculinity behaviour is not a problematic sexual orientation disorder to find. Some behaviour could complicate the prevention and management, such as: rarely seeking help from a psychiatrist unless facing law problem or surrounding social taboo. The recent number of prevalence represents only the tip of the iceberg.
CASE REPORT: We presented a case of a 38-year-old man taken by a police officer in the Department of Psychiatry, Universitas Sumatera Utara Hospital for a Psychiatric Evaluation after allegedly killing his male partner. Psychiatric evaluation and MMPI-2 examinations were conducted to disclose and analyse his life dynamics and reality.
CONCLUSION: The prior examination directed us to conduct an examination using the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2). We found increased from Clinical Scale 5 and 44 positive answers from 66 questions. This patient is egosyntony that make it is very complicated to be treated.
