However, there is a wide range of cultural and social acceptance of homosexuality. This essay aims to
examine the theoretical and methodological implications of homosexuality acceptance among Filipino
youth. By looking at essential speculations and examination studies, we can acquire significant knowledge
of the variables that impact social acknowledgment and grasp the ongoing status of LGBTQ+
acknowledgment in the Philippines.
The social Character Hypothesis, proposed by Tajfel and Turner (1979), sets that people infer their
healthy identity from bunch enrollment. This theory suggests that Filipino youth may develop attitudes
toward homosexuality about their identification with social groups that either support homosexuality or
view it negatively. According to Dacanay and Valera's (2017) research, Filipino college students' attitudes
toward homosexuality are adequately explained by Social Identity Theory. Allport's Contact Theory, first
proposed in 1954, posits that increased contact between members of various social groups can lessen
prejudice and increase acceptance. About homosexuality, this hypothesis recommends that positive
associations and openness to LGBTQ+ people could prompt more prominent acknowledgment among
Filipino youth. Personal contact with LGBTQ+ people significantly predicted more positive attitudes toward
homosexuality among Filipino high school students, according to a study by Virtucio, Tongson, and
Salvador (2020).
One of my questions is what methodological analysis they used, what YAFSS3 is, and why they
chose it that way. There are simple ways to collect data. The second is the one about homosexuality and
the law. It said implementing the law for this matter is easy, but why are people still discriminated against
Social, strict, and cultural variables impact the social acknowledgment of homosexuality in the Philippines.
The Philippines is a dominatingly Catholic nation, and Catholic lessons have customarily underlined hetero
connections. Be that as it may, perspectives towards homosexuality have been advancing over the long
haul. In the Philippines, attitudes toward homosexuality have gradually changed, particularly among the
younger generation. This change has been brought about by globalization, exposure to various cultures,
and increased internet and social media access to information.Research studies have investigated the
social acknowledgment of homosexuality among Filipino youth. These studies frequently focus on
homosexuality-related attitudes, beliefs, perceptions, and experiences. They want to know how much
support, tolerance, and acceptance LGBTQ+ people in the Filipino youth population have. Even though
acceptance has improved, difficulties persist. Homophobia, separation, and belittling exist in certain
sections of Filipino society. Family acceptance, school environments, and employment opportunities can
be problematic for LGBTQ+ people. On the other hand, LGBTQ+ activists, human rights groups, and
advocacy groups continue to work toward promoting equality and acceptance.
