Abstract

This article, explores the types of discrimination experienced by sexual minority adolescents on campus and its impact on them. Through the textual and content analysis of previous studies, it concludes that the negative climate in schools including non-violent exclusion and physical violence are detrimental to the mental health of LGBTQ youth to some extent. Verbal abuse, threats and physical violence toward to these students are prevalent in schools and should be deterred. However, the campus does not currently make these LGBTQ students feel ‘safe’. In addition to the need for more education and regulations to stop violence, it is also necessary to study and find a solution that will improve the school climate and make it truly equal and safe.
