Though over 35s are not heavy film watchers, they still watch at a medium rate. The film will be rated 15 due to mild violence, blood, and sexual scenes. All characters will be female to appeal more to the male audience.
This document discusses discrimination faced by LGBT individuals in the workplace. It provides statistics showing that 3.4-6.7% of Americans identify as LGBT, and that many experience discrimination such as not being hired or promoted at high rates. It also discusses the economic impact of discrimination, including lower productivity. While 62% of Fortune 500 companies offer benefits to same-sex partners and most have non-discrimination policies, advocacy is still needed to address issues like bullying.

The Public Opinion Landscape - Same-Sex MarriageGloverParkGroup
This document summarizes recent public opinion polls on same-sex marriage in the United States. Support for same-sex marriage has increased significantly over time, with over half of Americans now supporting legal recognition of same-sex marriage. However, Americans are still divided on whether there should be a federal standard defining marriage. The majority believe the legality of same-sex marriage should be decided based on the US Constitution rather than left up to individual states. Knowing someone who is gay or lesbian makes one more likely to support same-sex marriage.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people are associated with certain stereotypes - conventional, formulaic generalizations, opinions, or images based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. Stereotypical perceptions may be acquired through interactions with parents, teachers, peers and the mass media, or, more generally, through a lack of firsthand familiarity, resulting in an increased reliance on generalizations
This document summarizes the findings of a survey administered to University of Texas at Austin students about their impressions of various political candidates. A regression analysis found that students having a positive impression of Hillary Clinton was most strongly correlated with perceiving her as a strong leader, perceiving her as similar to themselves, and perceiving her as honest. The document hypothesizes ways Clinton could have used these findings to improve her campaign messaging, such as emphasizing her leadership abilities and policies to help the working class.

This document discusses Donald Trump's candidacy for President and his leadership style. It argues that Trump is a straight shooter who is not politically correct, and that his confidence and willingness to speak his mind makes him difficult for opponents and the media to handle. It also asserts that Trump understands the concept of "Action + Reaction = Consequence" from business and is well prepared to face the other candidates in debates, while they are still trying to figure out how to respond to Trump's non-traditional approach. The document concludes by saying how candidates react and deal with consequences from Trump could determine who ultimately wins the Republican nomination.
Group Five is presenting on a documentary about homophobic bullying among teenagers. They interviewed teachers, students, and anti-bullying advocates. The results of a student survey showed most don't think being gay is wrong but still feel uncomfortable with homosexuality. Many claimed not to witness bullying, though anti-bullying groups see it as an ongoing issue. The group plans to film interviews in personal locations to show each subject and conclude their film will add to growing opposition against homophobia.
The document analyzes audience ratings data from IMDB for two genre films. It finds that for one film, most ratings came from males ages 18-29, with most common ratings being 7-10. Teenage males and females rated it similarly, suggesting it appealed to both. For the other film, over 100,000 more males voted than females. Males ages 18-29 from outside the US most commonly gave it 7-8 ratings. Females under 18 gave it the highest ratings overall. The data provides insight into these films' target audiences.
Homophobia refers to negative attitudes towards homosexuality, while heterosexism involves systemic privilege granted to heterosexuals in society. Compulsory heterosexuality assumes heterosexuality as the norm and reinforces it through legal and cultural structures. Together, heterosexism and homophobia enforce compulsory heterosexuality and the nuclear family model as the basis for patriarchal power. Those perceived as gay can face job loss, rejection from family, inability to adopt children, lack of legal protections, physical danger, mental health issues, lack of community, and loss of respect.
This document analyzes the target audience for the horror/thriller film "Cabin in the Woods" to inform targeting for a new opening film of the same genre. It finds that the primary demographic is males ages 15-24, as they make up 65% of the audience and most enjoy themes of violence and gore. Psychographic analysis revealed the target audience has an "Explorer" personality that seeks new experiences through challenging films. Research on media consumption showed the 15-24 age group is most active on social media, indicating it should be a key platform to reach this audience.
The document discusses film audiences over time and the current UK cinema demographic. It saw a rise in cinema attendees after film's introduction until 1951, when TV was introduced and numbers declined until stabilizing in the 1980s. Currently, the main cinema audience is ages 15-24, followed by 35-44 and 25-34, and the male to female ratio is almost equal. For horror films specifically, the primary audiences are males ages 15-24, as well as working to middle class viewers and groups of friends or couples on dates.
- 40% of employees admit to current or previous workplace romances. Only 18% of employers have a written workplace romance policy. Of those with policies, 57% ban office relationships.
- Employers should consider if they have a problem with workplace romance based on their history and legal risks. If so, an antifraternization policy may be needed to minimize harassment claims and favoritism.
- Antifraternization policies can totally ban romance, ban supervisor-subordinate relationships, or allow continued relationships after a transfer or employees signing a "love contract" acknowledging the relationship.
Typical Representation of; Age, Class, Gender and Placenisha1998
This document discusses typical representations of age, class, gender, and place in media. For age, teenagers are often negatively stereotyped as being involved in crimes like drugs and violence. The document's trailer will feature teenage characters experiencing these issues. It will also include a wise, mature teacher character. For class, the document states that troublesome teenagers are often considered lower class with little education. For gender, boys are typically portrayed as tough while girls are emotional and weak, though the document plans to feature a countertype with girls in a gang. For place, where characters are shown provides clues to their traits and behaviors.
This document discusses cultural sensitivity regarding sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression. It begins by defining common terms used in the LGBTQQIA community, explaining that gender and sexuality exist on spectrums rather than as simple binaries. It then discusses the discrimination and violence faced by LGBTQQIA individuals, particularly transgender people and those who are racial minorities. Finally, it argues that the traditional gender binary system imposed harmful Western colonialist views and erased the acceptance of non-binary identities found in many non-Western cultures. The document advocates recognizing one's privilege to give marginalized voices opportunity to speak and progress liberation from the bottom up.
This document discusses various topics related to the LGBT community including: different couples featured in a movie; Ellen DeGeneres opening the GLAAD awards which honor representation of gays and lesbians in media; a school board banning a gay-straight alliance group despite increasing acceptance of homosexuality; the first transgender model Anjali Lama; Angelina Jolie and Neil Patrick Harris being bisexual and homosexual respectively; Ellen DeGenerous being a homosexual female; Bill Clinton now supporting gay marriage after signing DOMA; a movie about a man fired for having HIV who sued; Ellen's show almost not making it due to her being gay but now her life is featured in magazines; and Obama talking about equality for the LGBT community
The document discusses target audiences for several horror films. It analyzes demographics like age, gender, and social class for films such as "House at the End of the Street", "The Shining", "Alien", "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", and "Scream 4". The target audience for "House at the End of the Street" is ages 15-24, peaks at 51% female. "The Shining" appeals more to those aged 40-52 who saw it as kids. "Alien" resonates with those aged 40-45 now who were young in 1979 due to its science fiction themes. "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" targets males aged 18-24 of social class C
The document discusses the history and current state of LGBT rights and culture. It explains the origins and meaning of the term LGBT and its growing mainstream acceptance. While LGBT people experience some tolerance in the Philippines, discrimination still exists and legal protections are limited. The document advocates for respecting all people regardless of attributes like gender identity.
Siwiec and Newton Political Ad PaperHarvardRandy Siwiec
This document analyzes a proposed negative attack ad targeting Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan on their stances regarding Medicare and Social Security. The ad would be run by a third party in Florida to influence senior citizens, a key voting bloc. Research shows negative ads can be effective if they transfer fear and anger to the target. The ad highlights Ryan's past proposals to reform entitlements and ties Romney to these views. Focus groups found the ad provoked strong emotions, suggesting it could influence seniors and potentially sway the close election in Florida.
This document discusses LGBTQ rights and inequalities. It notes that around 3% of the population identifies as gay or lesbian, yet they face discrimination and a lack of basic human rights. Examples are provided of victimization of LGBTQ individuals through physical attacks and hate crimes. The document calls for solutions like awareness, education, and advocacy to promote acceptance and equal rights. The conclusion emphasizes that all humans deserve basic rights regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
The blog post discusses accusations of bullying by Hillary Clinton's campaign against Donald Trump supporters. It claims the Clinton campaign hired "trolls" to attack people like Scott Adams, the author of the blog, online for supporting Trump. However, the commenter questions whether Adams has evidence the Clinton campaign is directly responsible for cyber attacks against him. They also note Adams' comparison of Clinton to Hitler seems like too much. Overall, the commenter argues voters should consider both candidates' qualifications and moral stature, as well as important issues like abortion and discrimination, when deciding who to support.
The document discusses learning activities for orienting oneself and exploring online communities. It begins with a quote that the map is not the territory, meaning one should explore beyond what is presented. It then lists activities like orienting yourself, looking and listening, lurking and mingling to develop an online presence and voice. The document provides some examples of online community elements like blogs, profiles, and discussion boards. It stresses that the slideshow itself is not a full representation and encourages exploring further.
The survey responses reveal that LGBT youth often feel profoundly disconnected from their communities. They are more likely than their non-LGBT peers to experience verbal harassment, feel they do not fit in, and believe they must leave their community to achieve their goals and dreams. Specifically, LGBT youth are twice as likely to say they will need to move away to feel accepted. They also report lower levels of optimism that they can be happy or achieve life goals if they remain in the same city or town as where they currently live. However, LGBT youth also demonstrate resilience, as most believe things will get better in the future.
This document provides an overview of workforce diversity as it relates to sexual orientation and gender identity. It begins with a poll asking participants about their personal experiences with LGBT individuals. Some key definitions are then presented, distinguishing between sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. The presenter shares some aspects of their own identity and discusses the concept of identity more broadly. The document also explores terminology within the LGBTQIA community and presents a hypothetical case study scenario to discuss approaches to handling conflicts related to gender identity in the workplace.
The document discusses issues related to sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC) in the Philippines. It notes that LGBTQIA+ people experience discrimination in employment and education, as well as unfair treatment from some law enforcers and service providers. This leaves them without legal recourse. The document advocates addressing these issues by enacting anti-discrimination laws, promoting women's rights and gender equality, and upholding international and national commitments to protect SOGIESC rights. It emphasizes the importance of discussing SOGIESC to combat misconceptions and enable inclusive policies.
This document discusses Donald Trump's candidacy for President and his leadership style.

This document discusses homosexual tendencies and provides two case studies. It explores whether homosexuality is psychological, physical, innate, or environmental. Environmental factors like hostile family dynamics or seduction by gay communities can potentially influence homosexual tendencies. The document notes that counseling using personality tests can help homosexual individuals understand themselves without necessarily requiring long-term psychiatric assistance. It emphasizes having sympathy for homosexual individuals rather than viewing them as abnormal.
This document discusses frequently asked questions about sexual orientation and gender identity. It addresses whether being LGBTQ is a choice, what causes it, how common it is, and what youth need from parents if they are questioning. The key points are:
- Sexual orientation and gender identity are innate and not a choice. While the exact causes are unknown, experts agree it is not due to poor parenting or trauma.
- Homosexuality and being transgender are normal variations that have always existed in humanity. Discrimination against LGBTQ people is wrong.
- Rates of LGBTQ identities range from 3-10% depending on social acceptance. Being transgender is rarer at about 0.3% of the population.

This document discusses the intersection of disability and queer identity development for students. It notes that LGBTQ students with disabilities face discrimination that can negatively impact their identity development and success in college. Creating partnerships between queer resource centers and disability services is one strategy to create a more welcoming environment. While these students have similar developmental concerns to other students, they also have unique challenges due to societal oppression related to their sexual orientation, gender identity, disability status, and the intersection of these identities. The document reviews literature on LGBTQ and disability identity development theories and the lack of research specifically on the intersection of these identities. It concludes that identity development occurs over time in a fluid process for both LGBTQ and disability identities.

This document discusses economic inequality and lack of access to innovation ecosystems that have hindered job growth among Black and Hispanic communities. It advocates for connecting disadvantaged communities to local innovation hubs through collaborative efforts across education, government, and industry. This will help boost entrepreneurship and address America's shortage of job creators, which is key to sustaining its innovation-driven economy. Connecting more communities to resources and opportunities within innovation clusters can help fix historic economic disparities and boost national competitiveness.

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC CharlotteCori Faklaris
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

non-conformity, then, is behaving and appearing
in ways that are considered atypical for one’s
gender.
Gender nonconforming people are often
assumed to also be lesbian, gay, or bisexual, while

Thank you for joining us today. Before we begin, we’d like to ask everyone to stand up, scan the room for someone you don’t know, and then pair up with them. (pause) Now Juan is passing out some profiles to each duo. We’d like for you to take a few moments to look at the picture. Then share with each other how the picture speaks to the BMoC work you’re connected to OR that you are aware of. It doesn’t have to be literal. It could be that something in the picture reminds you of a program you’ve been working to advance or a campaign you’ve been part of. But it could be literal as well. Make sense? You have 5 minutes. Starting now.
JUAN
(1) Who’d like to share how the picture they’ve been given connects to their BMoC work? What about the picture stuck out to you most?
(2) Anyone else want to share?
(3) Did anyone have any aha moment they’d like to share?
(4) Does anyone know any of the people in these pictures?
VINCENT
Would it surprise you that every single one of these people is a person who doesn’t conform to traditional views of masculinity?
For instance, this is Yordy Cancino. Yordy is one of many undocumented youth leading Gay Straight Alliance clubs and making schools safer across the country. As Gay-Straight Alliance club president at his Los Angeles high school, Yordy worked to transform his community in California, where he has lived since he was a child. Recently he was detained by ICE. After months of advocacy by thousands of immigrant and LGBT youth, Gay-Straight Alliance leader Yordy Cancino was released on June 6th.
This is Alexander D’Leon and Geoffrey Winder. Alex is a member of the Labor/Community Strategy Center, was a student leader in the Brothers, Sons, Selves Coalition, and is now a staff organizer with the Gay Straight Alliance Network. While a student at Manual Arts High School, Alex organized to get LAUSD Board members to vote in favor of the School Climate Bill of Rights as part of the Brothers, Sons, Selves Coalition. Geoffrey is child of Black father and Vietnamese mother. He lives in San Francisco and is a Senior Manager, Racial & Economic Justice Programs at GSA Network where he has built a GSAs for Justice movement that is ensuring the needs of LGBTQ low-income youth of color are represented in national school reform efforts.
This is Johnny Rodriguez. He is part of the Every Student Matters campaign in Long Beach.
This is….oh wait..that’s me. I run a social impact agency called Reinvent Communications. We partner with foundations, companies, and leaders. We leverage communications to harness the power of relationships to advance lasting social change. We partner with Liberty Hill Foundation to manage the Brothers, Sons, Selves Coalition, the California Community Foundation to manage their BLOOM initiative, and the California Endowment to lead their Sons and Brothers work to advance positive school discipline and restorative justice. It’s ironic that I’m involved in all of this work to reform school suspension policy because as a 5th grader, I was expelled from the Inglewood Unified School District for willful defiance.
In this picture, you have Kordell and Kaleb who caused an uproar in social media earlier this year when they posted this pic of their morning routine on Instagram. A young Black gay couple in the bathroom getting two of their children ready for school.
All of the men in these pictures express masculinity in different ways. All of us are people of color. All of us are part of the boys and men of color movement. Some have been organizing to advance alternatives to positive discipline policies, reform our country’s broken immigration system, reduce crime and criminalization in our communities, increase opportunities for employment and entrepreneurship, advance marriage equality for all couples regardless of gender, and more. Others are using the media to challenge the view of who men of color are and can be. And while this presentation will focus a lot on gay, bi, and transgender men of color, heterosexual men and boys who don’t express their gender in ways that conform with society’s current view are impacted by our ability or inability to expand our view of masculinity.
Ok, now we’re going to get fancy. Pull out your phones. We’re going to do an anonymous live poll. INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOW TO TAKE POLL. Then, pause. Ok, here are the results.
And one more.
And here is the definition.
Dennis Rodman is perhaps the most known example of a heterosexual male who defies modern ideas of gender expression. He dresses in drag, colors his hair, has no issue wearing clothes typical of women, and is generally considered flamboyant. He’s also wealthy, 6’7” and 220 lbs. Imagine being a freshman boy in high school in a rural community with lots of gang activity and heavy pressure to “look hard” and “man up” and being like Dennis Rodman. The experience of that young man might be much different.
In fact, the experience of heterosexual non-gender conforming youth is one that is often ignored yet research indicates that they are the lion’s share of young people bullied at school. And what’s the impact of this. Students who had experienced anti-gay harassment are four times more likely than non-harassed youth to be threatened with or injured by a weapon. Imagine what that does to a child. For those children who are LGBT, many of them deal skip school due to safety concerns.
When you consider that four out of five LGBT students report that they know NO supportive adult at their school, it seems logical that LGBT students are three times more likely to drop out of school. This matters because this is the reality for the young men whose outcomes we are trying to improve. It is easy for many people to discount the need to broaden our view of masculinity out of the belief that it applies only to gay, bisexual, and transgender people and there are “no gay, bisexual, or transgender people in their programs” or the young men aren’t ready for that or the community isn’t ready to talk about it.
But here’s the reality. Society is not changing. Society HAS changed. Young men of color who don’t look gay to you…Are gay, bisexual, or transgender. This is Michael Sam. The first openly gay person to be signed to a professional sports team.
This is Michael Sam celebrating the news that he’d been drafted by the Rams the way many other new draftees do: by kissing his partner. ESPN had cameras on him as he, his boyfriend, and his friends waited anxiously to hear If he’d been drafted. This tender moment was carried live on ESPN and created an uproar.
TIMES HAVE CHANGED.
In fact, younger generations of gay men and women don’t feel obligated to define themselves by their sexual identity, helping to make homosexuality part of mainstream culture, rather than a culture apart. Millennials’ generational attitude towards homosexuality supports equality and acceptance. 64% of Millennials believe gay marriage should be legal, and 64% of high school gay youth are out at school. At the same time, all millennial men are viewing themselves and their role differently than their parents. Despite the changes in our society, many BMoC initiatives seem to be rooted in an outdated sense of reality as it pertains to definitions of masculinity.
Take criminal justice efforts, for example. Sadly, many of us are used to seeing men of color in correctional facilities. But look closer. All of the men in this picture are gay, bisexual, or transgender and are housed in a unit in the LA County Jail specifically set up to house gay, bisexual, or transgender men for their safety. Given that LGBT youth are estimated to be about 40% of homeless youth in this country and drop out of school at high rates, most research and anecdotal evidence suggests that LGBT people are overrepresented in prisons and jails. With people of color, especially Black men, are overrepresented in the prison industrial complex, it stands to reason that gay, bisexual, or transgender men of color – a subgroup of the same population we are gathered here to support – are falling through the cracks. Yet, most efforts aimed at reentry populations or criminal justice reform seem to ignore gender non-conforming populations. Popular culture treats gender nonconforming inmates as punch lines in jokes.
But when efforts do account for the broader spectrum of masculinity, everyone benefits. Take the efforts to make condoms available in jails and prisons led by the Center for Health Justice. It began in the very unit that the men in this picture are housed in. But I think it’s safe to say that sex is happening all throughout the system to varying degrees. Efforts rooted in traditional views of masculinity would avoid this issue because “men don’t have sex with men” right? But not providing condoms to inmates is one of the reasons that rates of HIV among incarcerated men are more than double that of their non-incarcerated counterparts.
This is but one example of why it’s important to root your BMoC efforts in an expanded view of masculinity in order to be truly effective at building opportunity structures for men of color.
Ok, pull out your phones again? Time for another poll.
Here is one example of a BMoC campaign that is winning, in part, because we intentionally address sexual orientation and gender expression. The Brothers, Sons, Selves Coalition or BSS Coalition for short.
Ok, pull out your phones again? Time for another poll.
The BSS Coalition is comprised of 12 organizations from around LA County. All of the orgs organize or serve young people in communities of color. From the beginning, we included a gender justice organization and a LGBT organization in the coalition. Doing this ensured that from day one, we were thinking about masculinity in different ways. It also created spaces for staff members of all organizations to learn from peers and for gender non-conforming youth leaders in other organizations to feel comfortable being who they are and knowing that they’d be in safe, supportive environment.
And that has helped to win. It helped the Coalition and its youth and adult members feel bonded to each other and the change they sought despite the difficulties of building a diverse county-wide coalition. It also helped groups to understand that the system change we sought MUST speak to the nuanced realities of young men of color. That’s why the School Climate Bill of Rights that we won in LAUSD called for increased data collection to provide greater understanding for the experience of LGBT youth in schools. In fact, this demand was not only heard in LAUSD but in Washington, DC and now the Department of Education is collecting data of this type.
Ok, pull out your phones again? Time for another poll.
