Homosexual
Heterosexuality is an umbrella term for those who fall outside the norm or are common in sexual orientation, gender expression, gender characteristics, and/or gender identity, e.g., gay, lesbian, transgender, intersex people, etc. The concept can be seen as practical, radical, historical and theoretical, but also controversial.

Sexuality
Sexuality tells who people can get shot at, in love with, and attracted to.
- Homosexuality (lesbian/gay): attracting people of the same gender
- Dichotomy: attracting two genders
- Pansexuality: being attracted to people regardless of gender, sometimes called personal genders
- Heterosexuality: attracting people of a different gender
Gender awareness dictates how people want to live and be in their gender, but it does not have to do with gender characteristics, sexual orientation or appearance. Some people have surgery or take in hormones to adjust their body and appearance to their sexual awareness, while others do not.
- TRANS female: a woman who was assigned a male at birth
- Trans male: male who was assigned a female at birth
- Gender does not associate people with being a man or a woman, is a mixture of both, or wanders between
- Female: adult gender-segregated person
- Steel: gendered child
- Sis (Sis-gene): people are satisfied with the gender they were assigned at birth
Gender
characteristics
Gender characteristics are biological factors that are used to classify people by gender, e.g. chromosomes, genitals, gonads, hormones, and more. Some are born in such a way that they cannot be easily classified as male or female based on gender characteristics and are therefore covered by the umbrella term intersex.
- Intersex people are born with atypical gender characteristics that run counter to standardized notions of what women's and men's bodies are like.
- Target gender people are born with typical gender characteristics that fit in with the standard concepts of how women's and men's bodies are
perceived Gender expression dictates how people express their gender awareness on a daily basis, e.g. through dress choice, hairdressing, and body expression. Gender expression is a part of everyone's life; some people express their gender in a non-conventional way while others' gender expression better fits in with society's expectations about gender.
A
- typical gender expression is, for example, a masculine gender expression in men that is consistent with prevailing ideals of masculinity and a feminine gender expression in women that is consistent with prevailing ideals of femininity.
- Atypical gender expression somehow contrasts with prevailing notions of how people should express themselves based on gender, e.g., feminine gender expression of a man and a person who mixes femininity and masculinity, etc.
Peer review criteria
Criteria are the inference that everyone is heterosexual and sisal and that this is normal. Related to this is the belief that peer review is natural and superior to other sexual practices. There are also prevailing notions of the "normal" gender, that genitalia regulates gender awareness, that the two sexes are only two (male and female) and that real women follow the accepted notions of femininity and real men follow the accepted notions of masculinity and gender express their gender in a typical way. At the same time, a question mark is placed on those who experience and express their gender in a different way.
Microbullying
Minority stress is somewhat what homosexual people experience and has a negative impact on their physical and mental health. Minority stress is the result of being able to suffer where and at any time prejudice, silence, discrimination and negative rhetoric, and even violence because of their queerness. This is something that follows the type of society we live in, that is, the reciprocal norms of the SSI. In other words, queer people never know what reaction they can expect because of their queerness. This can lead to distrust and insecurity in some homosexual people, regardless of whether they are eligible in individual cases. This may also make homosexuals hide their homosexuality in order to avoid reacting to it, which may increase the burden.
This is related to the micro harassment that many queer people experience, but there are everyday activities, comments, jokes, environmental factors, and more that are humiliating or degrading to queer people. Each aspect can be slight on its own, but when they are a persistent part of the LGBT community, they often have a major and negative impact. In order to reduce the minority burden and microbial burden, it is important that LGBT people know that the school, workplace, recreation, etc. are LGBT people and that the positive and respectful responses they experience to their LGBT people are ensured.
