Presentation transcript:

Homophobia is rooted in an irrational fear that leads to hatred, victimisation & intolerance of lesbian, gay and bisexual people

Using the word “gay” as an insult is homophobic

Calling someone ‘gay’ as a way of suggesting there is something ‘wrong’ with being lesbian or gay is homophobic

In the UK homophobic behaviour is recognised in law as a hate crime

Being on the receiving end of homophobia hurts.... & you don’t need to be lesbian or gay to suffer homophobia

FACT: People do not choose their sexual orientation…

FACT: People do not choose to be lesbian, gay or bisexual

FACT: People DO choose to be homophobic

FACT: HOMOPHOBIA WRECKS LIVES

What are you going to do about it?

YOU can help to combat homophobia…

YOU can challenge homophobia when you hear or witness it

YOU can respect your friend’s privacy. It is their sexual orientation and not your information to share

YOU should not assume that everyone is heterosexual

If YOU are experiencing homophobic bullying or know someone who is, report it to a adult …don’t be silent.

Support and value your friends, regardless of their sexual orientation or other differences
