GAY!

Now that I have your attention, I need your help!

For my SPA Class ISU (Final Project), I have to give out a Survey and get enough responses in by... Friday. Could you take a couple minutes to fill this out for me, pretty please? <33333

Survey on Homosexuality

This is an anonymous, confidential survey being conducted for a Highschool Sociology, Phsychology, Anthropology class. The purpose of this survey is to better understand the way teenagers accept and understand homosexuals, and the challenges gay teens face at school. Again, this is totally anonymous and completely confidential, and partaking in this survey is completely optional.

Discrimination: Treatment or consideration based on class or category rather than individual merit; partiality or prejudice. For example, kicking a gay man off a sports team because he’s a “fairy”.

Hate Crime: A crime, usually violent in nature, that violates the victim's civil rights and that is motivated by hostility to the victim's race, religion, creed, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender.
For example, chasing, stalking, beating or even killing someone because of their sexual orientation.
