Abstract

Sexual disorder is no longer called new issue. Rather, it was found thousand years back in the ancient Egypt, Greek legends, Rome Empire histories, Indian fantastic myths, Indonesian legends, and modern literature. In literature, theme on sexual disorder had involved many parties. Beside human beings, giants and gods are those who involve in this specific theme. In the Indonesian literature, assorted theme on sexual disorder include homosexuality, transexual, incest, and rape. These types of sexual disorder never stand alone, but engaged to and are result of the disharmonious social relation. The technics of revelation of these type of sexual disorder by an author are reflected in literature in two ways, explicitly and implied. Given that literature is one form of social facts as well as the reflection of social reality, sexual disorder explored in literature is also seen as the reflection of abnormal social reality.
