I. Introduction
- Topic “ 21st Citizen’s Perspectives about LGBT”
- Purpose:
We found that LGBT people continue to face significant barriers to full
participation in public life because of some preconception and
misunderstanding in every age range. This survey’s purpose is to collect and
understand people’s opinions about LGBT community. Therefore, actions are
taken effectively to enhance people’s knowledge on LGBT and prove that
"Your sexuality or your identity should not be a barrier to success".

 C. PROFOUND AWARENESS
1. Level of satisfaction with differences situations

- As we can see, the youngest age range (16-20) is the most satisfied with LGBT being
in their life.
- The middle age is just a little bit less than the young one.
- It is obvious that There is a struggle for those beyond the age 40 to accept something
a little strange in their life. It is a generation gap. We should also know

for the future. We sincerely hope that these young people's positive views of the LGBT
community will contribute to society becoming less prejudiced and more open about the
LGBT community, enabling them to live intimate lives, easy to speak themselves and freely
express their sexual preferences.

+ more likely to perceive their peers as manifesting negative attitudes,
especially if the respondents are males, express traditional, restrictive
attitudes about LGBT

d. Survey Conclusion
As can be seen from the results of our survey, participants from group 3 seem to have much
more preconception about LGBT rather than that of group 1 and 2, due to the generation gap
and the accessibility to social media. They have negative views on LGBT and find it hard to
form relationships or accept LGBTs with positive attitudes. Group 1 and 2 with participants
from various sexual orientation, depicts their willing to support and protect LGBT- a good
sign for the future. They are the generation that is exposed early to accurate knowledge and
information about LGBT, so they have a much more objective view than the old generation,
thereby creating a premise for them to build a better environment for LGBT.
From the above analysis, the culture of LGBT needs respect from the whole world's citizens.
Whether it is a protection law issued by various governments, biological research or a
citizen’s recognition and understanding of these organizations, it is necessary to give them
time for integration. There is still a lot of space for the development of the LGBT
organization. Acceptance and accommodation will become facts. All of this requires the
support of different faith organizations. The future development of the LGBT organization is
in the ways we understand the gap and narrow it. Make those who are conservative to LGBT
culture open their minds and accept LGBT.
