Abstract:

This study determined the transition of LGBT youth from stigmatization to acceptance of selected research participants of UPLB Babaylan in Los Baños, Laguna. Specifically, it aimed to identify how the LGBTs come out with their true sexual identity, the perceptions of the LGBTs regarding others’ stigmatization to their sexual identity, the perceptions of LGBTs towards acceptance of other people in terms of their sexual identity, and how such reaction of others affect their own self-acceptance.
