Anti-Gay Attitude in Schools

The article I read was on anti-gay comments in Canadian groomdayss. Two university professors of Manitoba conducted a national refresh of both homo versed and heterosexual teens. aside of 3,700 students across Canada, hear insulting comments on a daily basis. The survey give that seventy per cent of students heard phrases same(p) thats so gay and forty eight per cent heard derogatory terms like faggot, lezbo and dyke any day.The article recommends that school boards should apply gay-straight alliances such(prenominal) as the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer) groups which argon plebeian in high school and a broad education as head as better teacher training. slew who be insulted for being gay are simply harassed. Everyone has the right to life and shelter as guaranteed by our constitution. We have galore(postnominal) bullies at school and comments such as those as I listed and are salutary another form of a entrap down and should not be allowed anywh ere, including school.Students who do this are just ignorant and childish but adults who ignore it are the accepted problem. This relates to psychology because if you examine the percentage of deal who get harassed in school could have mental health issues in the future such as form for being discriminated in schools, suffering from worry and depression, or addictive behaviour because of their sexual orientation.This could also lead to eating disorders, do drugs and alcohol abuse, and suicide. The likelihood of suicides happening are people who probably cant cope with discrimination, isolation, and loneliness. In conclusion, the researchers said that there is a lot of ground to stand by push for an improved school humor which is true because high school is yobo for everyone. And even after high school it doesnt stop being tough.
