HOMOSEXUALITY

By: Bacita D. Palma Gil

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer also known as LGBTQ Community is very
rampant today. In this society, LGBTQ does not perceive as a standard. Thus, LGBTQ members face
constant issues about equality and respect. Does it really matter if we accept them? Is it really a big
deal not to promote LGBTQ in this society as we follow the traditional sexual orientation?
Gender equality is what LGBTQ Community is seeking for. They have been fighting Gender
Equality for years yet they can't feel the essence of equality. According to the article entitled "About
LGBT Human Rights," by Amnesty International USA, it states, "However, across the globe, there
remain many instances where an individual’s sexual orientation or gender identity can lead them to
face execution, imprisonment, torture, violence or discrimination." It is sad to hear that being
themselves suffer horrible actions. If society will accept LGBT no one will go through execution and
discrimination. But there are consequences in accepting LGBT in our society. LGBT may increase the
rate of HIV cases. Another thing is that according to International Research having LGBT in the
society can confuse children about their gender role and expectation to the society.
Discrimination is one of the prominent issues about LGBTQ Community. According to the
research 9 out 10 members of the LGBT said that they suffer discrimination. Discrimination comes in
any forms. Discrimination in employment, business, social environment, and other aspects to their
life. Promoting LGBT could lessen the discrimination they are struggling with. However LGBT is not
part of the norm. It is not the traditional sexual orientation that people had. LGBT is against to the will
of God. Being a homosexual is a sin.
Promoting LGBTQ Community in this society will be a hard choice. Accepting them sounds
good to their side but consequence is in the end. According to the research almost 73℅ of the HIV
cases is coming from LGBTQ Community. Where in if LGBT will have the same rights as men and
women. Probably the rates of HIV cases will continuously growing. Hence it is not a hindrance to
promote LGBT because there are many ways to diminish the rate of HIV cases. LGBT can undergo to
symposium or seminars that can help them to be aware about the said issue.
LGBTQ Community is not seen as normal. It is against to the will of our Lord. During the
creation, God only created man and women. Where man is only for woman. Having LGBT in the
society is not good. Many will be affected beliefs and tradition will be changed. Homosexuality is a
sin. Having LGBT will continue to weaken the traditional family values essential to our society.
However LGBT are humans too. They have the rights to love and to be loved. People can’t continue
to use Bible as an excuse to accept and promote LGBT. Throwing them bible verses and beliefs can’t
change them as homosexual being. It does not mean accepting LGBT in the society but rather
promoting equality.
Promoting LGBT will lessen discrimination and gender equality will be attainable. However,
society will be affected to the said promotion in terms of beliefs and norms. But the decision is still up
to you! It is in you! Just remember, "Even if you can’t change all the people around you, you can
change the people you choose to be around. Life is too short to waste your time on people who don’t
respect, appreciate and value you. Spend your life with people who make you smile, laugh, and feel
loved."
