Social perspectives on gender difference in terms of LGBTQ

Human as we say to ourselves is one of the species on this planet who dominate over all other organisms in terms of pyramid of intelligence. As we are progressing with technology we are more exploring ourselves and we can say we are dissecting our own selves. LGBTQ which is being abbreviated as Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer has become an internet jargon and has spread between internet user community.

Let's understand what this does mean to socially accepted common people. Lesbian means a woman who is attracted towards a woman whereas Gay means a man who is attracted towards a man. Bisexual are man/woman who are attracted towards both the genders where as Transgenders are any gender that doesn't align with the gender that person was assigned at birth.

From nature's point of context, these are also types of sexual orientations along with our common sexual orientations which we call heterosexual. But the irony is socially these persons are treated as abnormalities and are not accepted. Since ages, societies are treating them as community leftovers or nature's manufacturing defects. These type of thought process also got fuel from our entertainment industry projects where in a movie they are being projected as always begging and not acceptable among the common people. If one observes a child who is unaware of these differences, the child will treat the uncommonly sexually oriented person like any other normal person. The seed of thought is being put into a growing child by their elders and later by external sources like movies and videos. Now think of a planet where heterosexual humans are few in number and LGBTQ humans are more abundant, can you imagine what will happen when they start treating heterosexuals as leftovers or manufacturing defects. They are facing social bullying since ages and this is not stopping at all. These people also become victim of sexual offenders who asks sexual preferences instead of money. Knowing the future consequences, people of this community forcefully take up these activities as their bread & butter.

Inferring to solutions, we have to start awareness among our communities that these people should be treated normal like us. They also have feeling and wishes which need to be acknowledged like normal human rather laughing at them or truncating them from the scene. We have to stop publishing entertainment contents where its being projected that they always begs and run their livelihoods. Along with these we have to accept their marriages as any other marriage. We must allow them to apply for the workplaces and jobs. Government can also takes steps to make their eduction free or some sort of support till they become skilled of their choice. Though few people have moved forward to address the problem, but we need more intervention from our society towards LGBTQ community people in order to address their problems and support their progress.
