THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
Gay is a term that primarily refers to a homosexual person or the trait of being
homosexual. The term was originally used to mean "carefree", "happy", or "bright
and showy". The term is use as a reference to homosexuality may date as early
as the late 19th century, but its use gradually increased in the 20th century. In
modern English gay has come to be used as an adjective, and as a noun,
Referring to the people, especially to gay males, and the practices and cultures
associated with homosexuality. By the end of the 20th century, the word gay was
recommended by major LGBTQ groups and style guides to describe people
attracted to members of the same sex. There is no such thing as “a gay.” Gay is
an adjective, and needs a noun to follow it; gay man, gay woman, gay people. To
refer to people by a single attribute is often considered rude or belittling..
In one version, homosexuality actually does provide a genetic advantage,
in the form of, say, a gay uncle who helps with the kids. In particular, he helps them
survive long enough to pass their genes on to the next generation, and by virtue
of an uncle's genetic connection to his nieces and nephews, some of their kids
might be genetically more likely to be gay too.

Over the past generation, sexual minorities particularly, gay person have
gained population in the Philippines. Gay group found their way in social media
and already accepted by netizen. People know that Gay is not a mere one. We
can communicate to them easily but gay is still a puzzle to everyone, some people
fight for their unknown identity. They want to belong to a community in which they
will be accepted by netizen. Some of gay’s showed their talents in media. One of
the reason why people enjoying their company is because they bring laughter to
people. As a netizen gay is not new to us, everybody know that we have our own
personality and that is acceptable to each other. But how about gay people. They
have different habits that only gay will understand. That acceptance of gay people
is also acceptance of the nature they have. As a citizen it is important that to accept
them properly, everyone should be open minded and understand gay, let us
respect and be good to them. Because they are just people and have a good
personalities.At about the same time, a new, pejorative use became prevalent in
some parts of the world. Among younger speakers, the word has a meaning
ranging from rubbish to a light-hearted mockery or equivalent to weak. In this use,
the word rarely means "homosexual", as it is often used, for example, to refer to
an inanimate object or abstract concept of which one disapproves. The extent to
which these usages still retain connotations of homosexuality has been debated
and harshly criticized. The researchers aim to conduct what are the coping
mechanism of gays in our society.
11
Background of the study
The most common terms for homosexual people are gay for males, though gay
is also use to refer generally to both homosexual males. The number of people
who identify as gay and the proportion of people who have same sexual
experiences are difficult for researchers to estimate reliably for a variety of
reasons, including many gay people not openly identifying as such due to hetero
sexist discrimination.
If you are gay, you might be experiencing hostility from those who know you.
You may suffer rejection by loved ones, discrimination at work, or bullying at
school. Take steps to protect yourself from violence or harassment and precarity.
Find allies among gay people, friends, and family. Learn your legal protectors, and
know how to find shelter and help out in the world. Finally, love yourself, and
resilience. Issues of discrimination against homosexuals were brought forward in
society over one hundred years ago. Homosexual relationships and acts have
been admired, as well as condemned, throughout recorded history, depending on
the form they took and the culture in which they occurred. The essence of being
gay is being sexually attracted to someone of the same sex. It does not particularly
matter whether or not you act on this attraction; there are celibate gay people, just
as there are celibate straight people.
12
Statement of the problem
The study aims to determine the coping mechanism of the gays as a member
of the society. Specific questions that the researcher aims to answer the following:
1. What is the Socio Demographic profile of the respondents:
1.1 Gender
1.2 Age
2. Coping mechanism variables of the gays
2.1 Physical appearance
2.2 Bullying
3. What are the awareness on coping mechanism?
3.1 Gender Difference
Theoretical framework
Tachell P. (2013), cited that a new, pejorative use became prevalent
in some parts of the world. Among younger speakers, the word has a meaning
ranging from derision equivalent to rubbish or stupid to a light-hearted mockery or
ridicule equivalent to weak, unmanly, or lame. In this use, the word rarely means
"homosexual", as it is often used, for example, to refer to an inanimate object or
abstract concept of which one disapproves. The extent to which these usages still
13
retain connotations of homosexuality has been debated and harshly criticized. A
new study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine has found a link between
homosexuality and female fertility. The mothers and maternal aunts of gay men
have "increased fecundity compared with corresponding maternal female relatives
of heterosexual men," the authors of the study write.
This study, which the authors note was based on a small sample and "would
benefit from a larger replication," supports the so-called "balancing selection
hypothesis." The gay gene or genes are thought to exist on the X chromosome,
and "increase the reproductive value" of the female relatives. In other words, it
makes the women more attractive to men, allowing them to produce more
offspring. So while the 'gay gene' may not be passed down directly, it will survive
over the course of many generations.
Sykes (2013), according to his opinion If the existence of the 'gay gene' is
ever proven conclusively, it is unlikely to have much of an impact on the beliefs of
some people who reject homosexuality as a "lifestyle." After all, some of those
people simply reject science. Indeed, there are some people who want to bury their
heads in the sand, and that is an issue that impacts the field of genetics in general,
gay gene or no gay gene.Not only are the maternal relatives of gay men more
attractive, more fertile and subject to fewer complications during pregnancy, the
study also found these women are extroverts and generally happier.

Figure 1. Conceptual Model of the Study
The input frame consists of the Grade 11 Students in Humss who served as the
respondents and the evaluation questionnaire.The process frame involves the
validation of the questionnaire , the statistical treatment of the data, and their
analysis and interpretation. The output frame includes the suggestions of the
teacher experts to further improve the developed in Gay’s.
Assumption of the study
15
The researchers figured out that gays can cope even though they have
experiencing discrimination. They maintain a positive sense of self in the face of
chronic negative feedback base in attitudes and increased sexual risk behavior in
this population.
Scope and limitations of the study
The study is limited only on the evaluation and validation of the coping
mechanism of the gay as a member of the society as perceived by the selected
Grade 11 Humss Students of AMA Calamba Campus during the school year 2017-
2018. This study limits only to 30 students of AMA Calamba Campus.
Significance of the study
16
Learning is the aspect of development that can notes modification of behavior,
skills and knowledge that result from practice and experience which sought for
equality education.
Vital results of the study could be highly significance and beneficial specifically
to the following.
Teachers. As the one who have a huge part in the learning process, this study will
help them to maximize the learning of the students through the use of this study.
Parents. The parents would be able to monitor, support and guide their children
to have a better understanding of the concepts.
Students. As the prospective SHS learners, this study would benefit and inspire,
them to formulate and act upon on the LGBT especially to become independent
learners about LGBT to respect them.
Future researchers. This would serve as reference that would help conducting
their own research studies related to LGBT. This will also inspire others to pursue
researchers to continuously attain meaningful ideas
Definition of terms
17
It is imperative that clarity be established in any research work. Therefore it is
essential that some basic terms be defined from the onset of this research for the
purposes of this research the following definitions will be used as defined.
Discrimination - Negative or unequal treatment of an individual due to a specific
characteristics trait such as race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, etc.
Gay - a term used to describe individuals with a homosexual orientation.
Homosexuality - The sexual or erotic orientation by some men and women for
member of their some sex.
LGBT - An acronym utilized to include Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender
individuals.
Lesbian - a woman whose erotic orientation is for other women
Impactful - a powerful or dramatic effect
Homophobia - an irrational fear or hatred of homosexual people

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
Foreign Related Literature
Levine, Nick I. (January 10, 2018),” said that everyone feels isolated at
some point, but for members of the LGBTQ community, that loneliness hits
harder.Loneliness doesn't discriminate. Few people are lucky enough to make it
through life without feeling isolated at some point. But there are particular reasons
why loneliness is prevalent among the LGBTQ community. Part of realizing you're
gay, or bi, or trans, or non-binary, or anything other than gender and heterosexual
is accepting you’re different and somewhat separated from the majority. Many
young LGBTQ people hide their authentic selves from friends, family, and
classmates before they come out, which is often an incredibly isolating
experience.This sense of isolation can be hard to shake off, and it's also easily
triggered. Wherever you live in the world, however big the city, the LGBTQ
community is a disparate one featuring myriad different tribes. It isn't always easy
to find your niche. Hitting the clubs can be a euphoric experience, but it doesn't
necessarily lead to long-term satisfaction. Madonna once sang, "I found myself in
crowded rooms, feeling so alone," a sentiment many LGBTQ people can relate to.
Indeed, artist Richard Dodwell has recently published an anthology book, Not Here,
dedicated to documenting queer loneliness in all its forms”

Chen, Shane(June 11th 2015), “ cited that the economic, another reason
behind the Spanish sexual xenophobia about the San gleyes - though I myself
haven’t really attempted to explain it here-may also be linked to the self-confessed
fear of many friars that their efforts at converting the natives were constantly being
undermined by the Chinese. Not a few Spanish missionaries pointed to the
Chinese as the culprits behind the backsliding in faith of natives who “returned to
their old ways” every time the Spanish frayles-who were supposed to guarantee
their salvation at all cost-weren’t looking. Second,containment theory may be most
logically invoked in relation to inversion, the dominant discourse of homosexuality
in our society at the present time. In many ways.”
According to Morgan l.(2011),” Gay means you like to be a girl, because
you like men and you like a dong shoved up your turd cutter, and so gay and
transgender are basically the same for many Pinoys. But can you blame them,
when the gay community itself flaunts Miss Gay pageants and other drag shows
that serve to create a hilarious caricature of the “gay culture”? It’s partly our fault.
Maybe we should stop calling it Miss Gay because it’s a misnomer. Maybe we
should call it Miss Drag or Miss Trans or I don’t know. It’s not a gay pageant per
se. It’s a pageant for the gender non-conforming queer folks – drag queens,
crossdressers, and trans pinays. They are fabulous, and we love the flamboyance,
but many of these people are not gay, and many gay men don’t do drag shows.”
Local Related Literature

Martin, A.C. (June 13,2013),” Welcome to the Philippines, the most “gay-
friendly” nation in Asia or so they say.One of the country’s most famous celebrities
is a loud, effeminate, cross-dressing gay man whose humor mostly honed in
comedy bars where insulting someone is considered hilarious has successfully
crossed over to mainstream television. He reinforces the stereotype that gay men
have men in the country’s entertainment industry: the joker who makes fun of
everyone and himself, the always delivers the punch line, who was cast for comic
relief. Their brand of comedy makes them tolerated in our country because they
are entertaining tolerated, but not accepted.
Gay women, on the other hand, aren’t afford as much visibility in showbiz
as gay men. In the Philippines, when you say the word “lesbian”, an image of short
haired, cross-an exaggerated swagger comes to mind. The vernacular word for it
is “tomboy” masculine-acting homosexual human which is this country”s only idea
of what lesbians are.
Similarly, homosexual relationships in the Philippines tend to adhere to
traditional gender roles; one must act as the man, and other, the woman.”
Garcia, Neil C.(2013),”I enumerated the three most important questions a
Philippine-based gay theory should address: cultural incongruity, gender
oppression, and the class struggle. After undertaking this inquiry into the writings
and history of Philippine gay culture in the last thirty years, I can nearly presume
that the “answers” to each of these broad concerns should involve the genealogy
of sexuality in our history as a colonized people, a revaluation of our present-day
concepts of maleness and femaleness, and a theoretical elaboration of the semi-
feudal, capitalist class structures which have guaranteed the oppression of
homosexuals in terms of occupational pursuit and symbolic relations. In the first
part of this work, some of these conclusions were brought to bear on the very
history that had countenanced them.
Although short and woefully incomplete, I therefore believe this study has
adequately, if provisionally, answered the most basic requirements of a tentative
gay theory in the Philippines.There are still other insights this study has yielded,
and they have to do with: 1) how the demonization of same-sexual activity is as
old as the Catholic Church’s history in the islands, 2) how inversion can be an
instance of containment, and 3) what some of the special problems of gay
historiography in a neocolonial context are.”
According to Phelan, John Leddy Phelan,(2013), “The Spanish observers
were vituperative Sinophobes who hated the Chinese as intensely as they were
dependent upon them for certain economic services. Sinophobia may be
unconsciously responsible for inventing the charge that the Chinese introduced
sodomy to the Filipinos.
Phelan concedes, however, that “the incidence of homosexuality increased

among the Filipinos as a result of the coming of the Chinese.” While this may have
been the case and the de facto economic ascendancy of the Chinese may have
indeed been the underlying reason for this Sinophobia Phelan nonetheless fails to
see the distinction between sodomy and homosexual activity. As I have earlier
attempted to clarify in the section on precolonial gender-crossing, sodomy as a
general term for “unnatural acts” did not preclude the many heterosexual acts and
“methods” which for the friars were not within the realm of the “ordinary.” Hence,
even this concession of Phelan’s may yet be misleading, since those many
different acts that might be called sodomitic could only have been around so much
earlier than the Spanish conquest. In fact, all the other accounts on the existence
of penis pins, licentiousness and lack of chastity among the pre-Conquista indios
and indias seem to indicate this to have been the case. Needless to say, it is almost
impossible to prove that the influx of the Chinese merchants into the Philippines
caused the many practices of sodomy to become any more or less widespread
than they had already been.
Edgar T.( February 2017),”Schools should be safe places for everyone. But
in the Philippines, students who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT)
too often find that their schooling experience is marred by bullying, discrimination,
lack of access to LGBT-related information, and in some cases, physical or sexual
assault. These abuses can cause deep and lasting harm and curtail students’ right
to education, protected under Philippine and international law.

In recent years, lawmakers and school administrators in the Philippines
have recognized that bullying of LGBT youth is a serious problem, and designed
interventions to address it. In 2012, the Department of Education (DepEd), which
oversees primary and secondary schools, enacted a Child Protection Policy
designed to address bullying and discrimination in schools, including on the basis
of sexual orientation and gender identity. The following year, Congress passed the
Anti-Bullying Law of 2013, with implementing rules and regulations that enumerate
sexual orientation and gender identity as prohibited grounds for bullying and
harassment. The adoption of these policies sends a strong signal that bullying and
discrimination are unacceptable and should not be tolerated in educational
institutions.

Parke & Buriel, (2013), Socialization has been defined as a process through
which individuals learn to change their standards, attitudes, and behaviors to
conform to those regarded as desirable and appropriate in any particular society.
According to West and Zimmerman (2010) postulated that it is through
socialization that children learn how to do gender in interaction and how to avoid
sanctions for doing it wrong. Drawing from a feminist, social constructionist
approach, the current study examined the processes through which
lesbian/gay/bisexual (LGB) parents constructed and socialized gender and
sexuality with their children, the contents of the messages parents conveyed to
children about gender and sexual orientation, and parents’ perceptions of the
influence of external sociocultural systems on children’s learning of gender and
sexuality. Processes of socialization were explored using a tripartite model of
parental socialization roles parents as interactors with children, parents as direct
instructors or educators, and parents as providers of opportunity. In line with this,
Martin (2010) postulate that it is through socialization, management, negotiation,
and resistance of a person how to operate in gendered structures.
Harry T. (2011),”However, people often argue that this is “only a phase,” and
when these teens go to co-ed colleges, they would then become straight and
restore balance to the world. It only becomes a serious issue when their children
continue to date persons of the same sex even after they have been exposed to
heteronormative society. It is only then that the issue of sexuality becomes real.
Bobby A.S.(2015),”The old gender dichotomy needs to rest. The average
should understand modern concepts of sexual identities or at least leave people
with non-conventional identities alone. After all, if you’re a straight Christian, it’s
not you who’s going to face God in the afterlife and be judged for homosexuality.
It’s us! I’ll ask God questions if he shows up on my funeral.
Local Related Studies
Peter Jones Dela Cruz,(2014),”Pinoys in general just tolerate, not accept,
gays. There is a huge difference between tolerance and acceptance. I don’t see
complete acceptance at all. I only see tolerance of a certain amount of the “gay
culture.” So what kind of gayness do Pinoys tolerate? Filipinos like gay folks who
live by their established stereotypes. Vice Ganda-esque sort of gayness, that’s
what people like. If you’re gay, you have to be funny and you should work as a
make-up artist or a fashion designer. If you work in the military or play with a sports
team, you’re going to create a lot of fuss, so just stay in the closet if you do.
John K.(2013),”The strange thing about the Philippines is the seeming
disconnect within its evolving culture. We’re taking large leaps into progress, but
we keep old customs–especially ones that are either useless or ridiculous. I’m not
a fan of customs and tradition. I want this country to evolve and embrace change.
Enough with overrated family values. Enough with Christian values. Enough with
old religious concepts of morality and stuff. We have to grow as a community, not
as discrete packets of supposedly Christian families. We have to learn how to
respect individual differences and accept that idea that we can be a solid
community that encourages a beautiful diversity.
Ace R.(2013),”There is still a ridiculous number of people, even within the
LGBT community, who think that gay men want to be girls and that transgender
people are gay. I don’t blame them. The word transgender is like a new word for
Filipinos. The first time you heard it was probably just a few years ago. The problem
is when you explain to people what transgender is, they refuse to accept the
meaning. Instead, they insist their own bias about “men wearing makeup and
skirts,” that they’re still men, or that Aiza Seguerra is still a woman. Filipinos are
preoccupied with sex organs. So if you have a penis, you’re supposed to be a man.
According to Fr. Dan Vicente Cancino of CBCP (2016),”Many Pinoys think gay
men spread STDs and HIV,look at the forums about HIV/AIDS. You’ll be
astounded at the magnitude of ignorance of arrogant anti-gay people who think
that HIV is a gay disease, a sort of plague nature designed to wipe out gay men–
because stigmatizing HIV is better than showing concern and giving assistance.
Fr. Dan Vicente Cancino of CBCP implied in a recent article about STD cases in
the country that distorted concepts of sexuality and erosion of family values may
be a factor in the rise of HIV cases in the country. It’s a wild assumption that needs
more study. Influential figures like him can manipulate the thinking of the less than
informed members of the population, propagating wrong notions about sexually
transmitted infections, like HIV.
Darren A. (2014),”First, this study has made it clear to me that the damning
attitude of the Catholic Church in the Philippines toward homosexuality may have
initially been conflated with (xenophobic) issues of race. In the archival component
of this work, I came across not a few accounts by the Spanish colonial
administration that blamed sodomy on the largely bachelor Chinese community
just outside the walled city. This early in the history of the Christianization of our
peoples, it therefore became apparent that demonization based on and
compounded by racial conflicts had played and would continue to play a major part
in shaping our country’s dominant religious attitude in regard to sodomitic sex.

Warren N.(2013),” The issue of independence also comes into play. Due to the
closeness to one’s family, most Filipinos do not move out of the house until they
are married, and even that is not an assurance. The children run the risk of getting
thrown out of the house if they admit to being gay so they would rather stay inside
the closet — at least they’re not homeless. It’s no wonder successful “coming out”
stories in this country are few and far between. One, because families would really
rather not talk about it, and two, because if they do get around to talking about it,
not all families are open to accepting that their child is gay. My god, what would
the neighbors think? What would our church mates think? We’d go straight to hell
just by breathing the same air.Religious, conservative, patriarchal and traditional,
these words are often used to describe Philippine society. These are words that
have been the bane of homosexuals in the Philippines whose best hope is to be
tolerated but not accepted. And yet, Filipinos currently find themselves in the midst
of two forces pulling them in opposite directions.

Research Design
The researchers use the descriptive method of research because it the most
appropriate method in order to answer the specific questions.

Descriptive method reveals condition or difference that exist and attempts to
interpret this present study that includes the studies that support to present facts
concerned in this study.
Respondent of the study
The respondents of this study are the students of AMA Computer College-
Senior High School Grade 11 HUMMS. They are the main subject of the study in
order to get their idea or knowledge about The coping mechanism of the gays in
our society.
There are 30 respondents, which comprised of 15 students from HUMMS 1
which is also 50% and 15 students from HUMMS 3which is 50% . The given
data correspond the 2 groups of the respondents to assessed the impact of the
coping mechanism of the gays in our society.
Data Instrument
The research instrument utilize by the researcher’s as a survey questionnaires
which the researcher gave to the students of AMA Computer College Calamba,
Laguna.
Point Scale Verbal Interpretation
4 3.26-4.00 Strongly Agree
3 2.51-3.25 Agree
2 1.76-2.50 Disagree
1 1.00-1.75 Strongly Disagree
Data Gathering Procedure
The section will discuss the steps to be done by the researchers to obtain the
needed data to accomplish the study. The researchers will determine their
research respondents and the formulate the questionnaire according to the
34
statement of the problem. The researchers will consult their adviser for the
validation of the instrument. To gather the desire data, the researchers distributed
the questionnaires randomly to the target respondents
All data and information gather is classify, organize, analyze, interpret and
present in textual and tabular forms
Statistical Treatment of Data
The statistical tool will use to determine the result of data gathered in the
study were Solvin’s Formula, Frequency and Percentage and Weighted Mean.
These tools helped the researchers to have accurate data, to get the validity of the
result and in order to attain the objectives of the study.
Frequency and Percentage will use in determining and describing the
distribution and profile features of the respondents in each category. The
researchers use percentage to represent the quantities of the table regarding the
largest or the smallest quantity. In this study the number of respondents in each
category was divided by the total respondents to get the percent equivalent.
Weighted mean will use to identify the interpretation of each statement. In
this method, it show’s the weight of data as will compare to other data and guided
the researchers to the highest point as well as the lowest point obtained.
The researchers use the weighted mean for the question because this deals
with the interpretation of the scored that will be gained by the respondents.

Schools should be safe places for everyone. But in the Philippines, students
who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) too often find that their
schooling experience is marred by bullying, discrimination, lack of access to LGBT
related information, and in some cases, physical or sexual assault. These abuses
can cause deep and lasting harm and curtail students’ right to education, protected
under Philippine and international law.
In recent years, lawmakers and school administrators in the Philippines have
recognized that bullying of LGBT youth is a serious problem, and designed
interventions to address it. In 2012, the Department of Education (DepEd), which
oversees primary and secondary schools, enacted a Child Protection Policy
designed to address bullying and discrimination in schools, including on the basis
of sexual orientation and gender identity. The following year, Congress passed the
Anti-Bullying Law of 2013, with implementing rules and regulations that enumerate
sexual orientation and gender identity as prohibited grounds for bullying and
42
harassment. The adoption of these policies sends a strong signal that bullying and
discrimination are unacceptable and should not be tolerated in educational
institutions.
