LGBT students are a target because many people do not believe in choosing same sex partners. They often are not open to many things and bring forth a small mentality in situations as such.
they chose to have a relationship with someone of the same sex and many people are not comfortable with that. also, some LGBT people dress either more feminine or more masculine and people use this so they can get a good laugh
heterosexuals are ignorant of homosexuality. They tend to center themselves within what's familiar. Homosexuality is different and new, some people just can't accept it. Sexual harassment for a LGBT person, coming from a heterosexual, is based more who they sexually prefer. Yeah, sometimes they are harassed based on their appearence, but I feel that isn't the majority of all cases.
All boys and girls who attend school in any borough in New York City.
