“…Ora, muitas vezes essa identidade não é possível de ser assumida, seja porque os/as jovens estão em processos de descoberta da sua orientação sexual, seja porque está oculta precisamente pela potencial violência que a sua desocultação pode gerar, daí que a noção de bullying homofóbico tenha que ser entendida em termos de «bullying heteronormativo» (Minton et al, 2008), estando relacionado com as socializações dominantes dos rapazes e dirigindo-se fundamentalmente a qualquer um (Pascoe 2013). Como explica Rui, de modo curioso: «Não há bullying homofóbico aqui na escola porque não há gays porque se houvesse [gays] havia [bullying homofóbico] de certeza!» (GDF1, Escola Roxa).…”

“…Minton et al (2008), por exemplo, identificam dois subtipos de bullying homofóbico: um tipo de bullying indireto, a que chamam de «bullying heteronormativo», que deriva do ambiente heteronormativo da escola (i.e., onde se espera que toda a gente seja, deva ser ou goste de ser tomada como heterossexual até prova do contrário). É um subtipo de bullying menos reconhecido como tal e, por isso, raramente desafiado pelos/as educadores/as.…”

ResumoApesar do crescente interesse pela investigação LGBTI, em Portugal são escassos os estudos sobre bullying homofóbico. Este artigo explora as representações e as experiências de estudantes do ensino secundário sobre bullying homofóbico, com recurso a 36 grupos de discussão focalizada com 232 raparigas e rapazes em 12 escolas públicas do Norte de Portugal. Constata-se a incapacidade do conceito de bullying homofóbico em abarcar todas as formas de violência homofóbica e heteronormativa da e na escola. A maior expressividade do fenómeno relaciona-se com os seus processos de construção da masculinidade no contexto das culturas juvenis, cuja incidência quotidiana nos desafia a questionar as oportunidades para a construção de uma cidadania inclusiva da diversidade sexual na escola. Palavras-chave:Escola; bullying; homofobia; masculinidade. Abstract Towards a complex vision of homophobic bullying: Unveiling daily homophobia in schoolsDespite the growing interest in LGBTI research, in Portugal there are few studies on homophobic bullying, especially with a qualitative focus and involving a critical reappraisal of the concept. This paper explores the representations and experiences on homophobic bullying and sexual diversity of 232 young students (boys and girls), using focus group 1

“…These decomposition outcomes may be reasonable. Several studies suggest that severe bullying can hold long-term consequences for minority groups, especially for gay men (Dew et al, 2006;Daley et al, 2008;Minton et al 2008). …”

Bullying is considered and evaluated as a proxy for unmeasured productivity, and a framework is provided that outlines why bullying might affect employment outcomes through differences in skills and traits. Using Bivariate and Heckit models we employ a variety of specifications and find several interesting patterns. The regression outcomes suggest that labour force participation, employment rate and hourly wages are negatively affected by bullying. In addition, men, homosexuals, immigrants, unmarried people, those having higher negative mental health symptoms, and those having lower human capital are more negatively affected by bullying in terms of labour force participation, employment probability, and hourly wages. Moreover, Oaxaca-Blinder decompositions suggest that labour force participation gaps, employment gaps and hourly wage gaps between minority and majority groups, especially for gay men and the disabled, can be explained by bullying incidents. It seems likely that having been a victim of bullying also has economic implications later in life due to withdrawal from the labour market and lower wages.JEL Classification: E24, J21, J24

Historically, the pathologisation of LGBTQ orientations shaped research and professional practice, while the impact of stigma was not considered. Within a minority stress conceptualisation however, stigma-related prejudice and discrimination experienced byLGBTQ people constitute chronically stressful events that can lead to negative health outcomes. Minority stress has been linked to psychological distress among gay men and lesbians and may contribute to elevated rates of distress frequently observed among LGBTQ youth. This study explored the impact of minority stress on psychological distress amongLGBTQ youth in Ireland. Measures assessing three components of minority stress (sexual identity distress, stigma consciousness, and heterosexist experiences) were administered online to LGBTQ youth aged 16-24 years (N=301). Each minority stressor had a significant independent association with distress. Stepwise regression analyses identified the linear combination of minority stressors as significantly predictive of distress [F(3,201)=30.80, P=<.001]. Results suggest that the oppressive social environment created through sexual/transgender identity-related stigma negatively impacts on the well-being of LGBTQ youth. Findings have implications for health professionals and policy makers interested in the concerns of LGBTQ youth experiencing difficulties related to minority status and will facilitate the development and tailoring of interventions aimed at reaching those most at risk.
