LGBTQ+ bullying

LGBTQ+ bullying involves targeting individuals because of their sexual orientation or gender identity, which can include name-calling, harassment, social exclusion, or physical violence. It often stems from intolerance, prejudice, or lack of understanding within communities or institutions. This harmful behavior can cause significant emotional distress, impact mental health, and hinder personal development. Addressing LGBTQ+ bullying requires promoting awareness, respect, and acceptance, creating safe environments where diversity is valued and protected.
