    This chapter reviews related literature and studies about the experiences of the LGBT community in the Philippines and their social interactions. It discusses how LGBT people have a distinctive culture but limited legal rights in the Philippines. The literature notes that while gays and lesbians are generally tolerated, there is still a long way to go for full acceptance and for the community to learn to commit to relationships without fear. The review also examines foreign literature on how LGBT youth construct their identities and experiences within social contexts, with several studies focusing on harassment and victimization experiences. It is noted that family relationships and contexts like religion and work remain understudied areas that impact LGBT youth.

    CHAPTER 2

    Review of Related Literature and Studies

    This chapter is the Review of Related Literature and Studies about A Qualitative

    Study on the Life Experiences of LGBT Community in relation to their Social

    Interaction.

    1. Related Local Literature

    The lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in the Philippines have

    a distinctive culture in society and also have limited legal rights. Gays and lesbians are

    generally tolerated (if not accepted) in Filipino society, especially with the recent events

    that promote the rights, general acceptance and empowerment of the community

    (Wikipedia, 2019).

    I guess for the Filipino LGBT community, we still have a lot to learn and a long

    journey towards self-awareness and acceptance. We still have a long way to go before we

    learn how to finally truly commit in a relationship that goes at par with what is the norm

    in our society today (Juseph, 2017).

    I hope the rainbow-clad flag will guide us to that day where we finally learn to

    accept who are without fear, before we ask for love and acceptance from society in

    general (Elas, J. 2017)

    “Race, gender, religion, sexuality, we are all people and that’s it. We’re all people.

    We’re all equal.” Whatever your gender, race, religion, and sexuality is, you’re still the

    person which you are now. Your sexual preference doesn’t define you, it is your
    personality that aspire you to be who you are in the society where you belong. But there

    are still people who do not yet accept the third sex in the community (Franta, C. 2018).

    The widespread of LGBT community has awakening the social perspectives of the

    society towards them. This study could not only benefits to the researchers but also for

    the whole community. It may change their views, perceptions, and beliefs in the LGBT

    community. Nowadays the researchers have seen a lot of changes towards the LGBT

    community. On how they interact, and build their self in the society just for them to be

    accepted (Duhaylungsod, S. et al. 2018).

    II. Related Foreign Literature

    The papers in this volume attempt to move the field beyond the “at-risk” or

    “resilient” paradigms by exploring the complex ways young people construct an

    understanding of their identities, their experiences, and the social contexts in which they

    are engaged, as well as the varied ways that context matters in the health and

    development of LGBT youth (Horn, S. Kosciw, J. Russell, S. 2009).

    In this collection of articles, authors cover a range of topics that contribute to our

    understanding of the lives of LGBT youth in context. Not surprisingly, several studies

    focus on the experience of harassment and victimization (e.g., Almeida et al. 2009).

    The paper provides startling results regarding to those students’ willingness to go

    to school or remain friends with a lesbian or gay peer (Heinze et al. 2009).
    This collection of articles also provides clues about contexts of LGBT youth’s lives

    that remain under-studied. For example, it is also notable that in studies of LGBT youth,

    family relationships are a backdrop that is under-examined, particularly in light of the

    extensive and rich literature(s) on parenting and parent-adolescent relationships. Recent

    work points out the dramatic undermining effects that family acceptance and rejection

    have on the health and well-being of LGBT youth (Rosario et al. 2009; Ryan et al. 2008).

    In addition to youth programs, the role of two other primary socializing contexts

    for young people have been notably absent in research on LGBT youth: religion and

    work. Research has documented the protective role that religion plays in the lives of

    adolescents (Smith and Lundquist Denton 2005).
