Homophobia - Educating Against Heterosexism

Homosexual phobia. It is defined as an irrational fear of sexual minorities including homosexuals, lesbians, bisexuals, transgender, transgender people. It exists in our society, but our safe haven in the "University Bubble" contains rational and educated people and makes homophobia a reality It seems. To deny homosexuality and to conduct discrimination based on sexual orientation is a problem and it is very difficult to treat it as a "other" person.

Heterosexuality: Heterosexuality is a term that may be used in place of the term homophobia. Heterosexuality believes that only relationships between heterosexuals are effective. It may be difficult to detect and may express yourself in the form of predictions, assumptions, values, actions and / or words. Examples of heterosexuals include expecting children to grow and marry heterosexuals; relationships depicted by media are only positive when they are heterosexual. Heterosexuality affects homosexuals and bisexuals. Because it forces them to "oppose their own struggle".

Critics issued a detailed record on this. Educational research in the second half of the 20th century showed that gay and gay fear strengthen certain forms of power and privilege and define and regulate the atmosphere of "mandatory heterosexuality" in public school education (Rich, 1986, p. 41). (Britzman in 1995; Griffin in 1992; Harbeck in 1992; Khayatt in 1998; Pinar in 1998). This mandatory heterosexual atmosphere often pays attention to their lgbtq identity to teachers, students, and support staff other than heterosexuals. Educational research in the 21st century turned its point of view to the development of anti-terrorism homosexuals education in the context of public school education to correct forced heterosexual atmosphere (Clarksean & Pelton, 2002; Goldstein, Russell & Daley, 2007; Griffin & Ouellett , 2003; Khayatt, 2000), 2002; Lugg, 2003; McCaskell, 2005)
