Study Notes
Psychosocial Perspective on Gender and Sexuality
- "Psychosocial" refers to the influence of social factors on an individual's mind and behavior, and the relationship between behavioral and social factors.
- Psychological aspect focuses on behavior and mental processes (affective, behavioral, cognitive domains).
- Social aspect considers development, structure, and functioning of society, including socialization, family, education, and media.
Psychological Development and Identity Formation
- Kohlberg's Cognitive Developmental Theory suggests that children's gender development progresses through stages, where they acquire information about gender from the world and others.
- Cass's Model of Homosexual Identity Formation outlines a six-stage process of homosexual identity development, with each stage representing a different level of psychological and social development.
Intersectionality and Identity
- Intersectionality is the concept that individuals experience gender and sexuality differently based on their race, class, and cultural background.
- These intersecting identities can create compounded forms of discrimination and marginalization.
Marginalized Identities
- LGBTQ+ individuals belonging to racial or ethnic minorities face additional layers of discrimination and psychosocial stress.
Psychosocial Challenges and Mental Health
- Internalized stigma describes how individuals with mental illness may view themselves negatively due to their condition.
- Individuals with gender dysphoria experience emotional distress and a strong desire to transition.
Contemporary Issues and Debates
- Growing awareness of gender fluidity and non-binary identities challenges traditional norms.
- This creates both opportunities and challenges as society adjusts to more inclusive views.
Role of Support Systems
- Social support (family, community, peer support, LGBTQ+ organizations) is crucial.
- Therapeutic interventions (affirmative therapy and counseling, mental health services) support individuals.
Gender-Fair Language
- Gender-fair language aims to minimize gender bias by using gender-neutral pronouns and inclusive phrases.
- Biased or sexist language is considered a violation of gender-fair language, as it stereotypes genders.
Examples in the Philippines
- Terms like "bakla," "tomboy," and "binabae" are used in derogatory ways.
- Women's experiences are often trivialized or dismissed, even in national contexts.
- Oversimplified beliefs about gender characteristics, behaviors, and roles are called stereotypes, and can be harmful.
Prejudice and Discrimination
- Prejudice involves unfavorable feelings towards individuals or groups due to preconceived notions (ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, age, disability, religion),
- Discrimination is unjust treatment based on perceived differences (race, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, disability, other characteristics).
- LGBTQ+ students often experience discrimination and bullying.
