Question

Consider what you have learned about growth and development, gender identity, and sexual orientation. Then, answer the following questions.
Describe common challenges faced by those with individual differences, such as boys and girls who reach puberty before their peers, those who are transgender, or those who identify as homosexual or bisexual.
What are the possible outcomes for these individuals if their differences are not respected?
What benefits might result if society showed more tolerance and respect for people with different gender identities and sexual orientations?

Answer 1

Answer:

People who reach puberty before their peers experience changes in themselves. They don't see people around them doing the same and may feel self conscious  or embarassed about themselves. Kids around them might look or treat them differently.The kids who don't identify as straight, whether it be homosexual, bisexual, pansexual,etc., face bullying and harassment from other students. They might feel insecure and have anxiety about facing the people around them.  Challenges faced by these people include discrimination and lack of support and understanding from family and peers. They may experience bullying and bias which hinders social growth.

The kids who aren't respected because of their differences may have life long impacts on them. They might never feel accepted and could always carry the weight of anxiety and depression. They might feel as if everything has to conform and not be themselves. But if their differences are recognized then respect for others that are different would be sky high. They would be more at peace with themselves and have the same rights as people who aren't queer. Kids that hit puberty would be treated the same as other kids and not bullied for their appearances. Many kids would have less anxiety and depression levels might come down. Everyone would feel like they belong in this world and that being who they are isn't 'weird.' Society would also be more open minded about different orientations and would be more likely to accept what isn't their 'norm.' But if their differences are recognized and respected then they would be able to grow into responsible adults with high self-esteem with social and personal growth.
