Sexual orientation is defined as an enduring pattern of attraction to persons of the opposite sex, same sex, or both sexes. It is generally categorized into heterosexuality, homosexuality, bisexuality, and asexuality. While homosexuality was previously considered a mental disorder, studies failed to support this view and it was removed from the DSM in 1973. Sexual orientation is now considered to have biological influences and to not be a choice. Discrimination against LGBTQ persons is widely considered unjust.
Being transgender refers to a person whose gender identity does not correspond with their birth sex. Some medical theories suggest there is a genetic component causing the brain and body to develop differently in the womb.

Gender role stereotyping occurs when a person is expected to behave in a certain way based on their sex.

Stereotypes in schools can limit what students can learn by expecting certain behaviors from them based on gender. The male and female brains differ in areas like processing, chemistry, structure and activity levels. Gender stereotyping affects both men and women by influencing behaviors and judgments of those who conform and do not conform to stereotypical roles. Social theories like social role theory and role congruity theory help explain how expectations based on gender roles lead to stereotyping.

The People Power Revolution in the Philippines began in 1983 with demonstrations against the regime of Ferdinand Marcos and culminated in his departure in 1986. Over two million Filipinos participated in massive protests on Epifanio de los Santos Avenue in Manila calling for democratic reforms and an end to Marcos' authoritarian rule and electoral fraud. The largely peaceful protests succeeded in removing Marcos from power and installing Corazon Aquino as the new president, restoring democracy to the Philippines.

Key events in the fight for equality included women gaining the right to vote in 1920 and the feminist movement of the 1960s-70s advocating for reforms. Today, statistics show progress toward equality but also remaining issues like a gender pay gap and lack of paid family leave.

Mental health issues are more prevalent in the LGBT community compared to heterosexual individuals. Some reasons for this include lack of acceptance leading to bullying, difficulties with self-acceptance and coming out, less stable same-sex relationships, and pressures to conform to gender norms. Inadequate mental health services also contribute, as providers often lack training about LGBT issues and clients face discrimination. Improving services requires educating providers, hiring LGBT staff, and making LGBT healthcare a priority.

This document discusses heterosexual society's negative views of bisexuality. It identifies three primary reasons for discrimination against bisexuals: seeing them as promiscuous, feeling threatened by open sexuality, and assuming sexuality is dichotomous rather than a continuum. Negative attitudes were exacerbated by the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s and 90s. Men tend to be more biphobic than women as a way to affirm their masculinity by rejecting what is seen as unmanly. While some bisexual activity arises from desire, others engage in it due to comfort, necessity, or opportunity without intimacy. Overall, resentment toward bisexuals stems from cultural influences, beliefs, and ignorance of stereotypes.

3. “Born This Way”? Homosexuality
APA
“no consensus among
scientists”
“Most people experience
little or no sense of choice”
Theories of origin
Genetic (allele)
Hormonal
Developmental
Social
Cultural
Evelyn Hooker, 1957: Not
environmental (removed as
disorder from DSM)
Prof. Richard Pillard: Probably
biologically determined
4. Is Homosexuality Curable?
DSM no longer classifies
homosexuality as a disorder
(since 1973)
psychology doesn't think it
needs "cured“
Rehab/reorientation for
homosexuality
Techniques can include
Shock therapy
Prayer
Exorcisms
Hypnotism
Aversion therapy
Counseling with pastor or
counselor
Many of these techniques
both dangerous and
unscientific
Linked to increase in
depression and suicide
Some success stories exist,
but more negative than
positive results
5. “Born this way”? Gender
Popularly thought to be social construct
There are people who identify as more than just male and
female (agender, pangender, etc.), so society believes gender is
a continuum
APA states “no single explanation for why some people are
transgender”
May be due to genetics, prenatal hormones, and life
experiences
6. Is Gender Dysphoria Curable?
No techniques found
Secular treatment is available to help deal with the distress
caused by gender dysphoria
One “cure” that exists is sex reassignment surgery
Treatment tends to change the body to match the mind rather
than changing the mind to match the body
Under secular concept of gender fluidity, identity can
change over time, but it shouldn't be forced to change
