This study explored the experiences of lesbian, bisexual, and queer (LBQ) students' ( = 9, aged 19-24) of sexual harassment via semistructured interviews. Data were analysed using a thematic analysis. Three overarching themes emerged: (a) the paradox of men's unwanted sexual attention, (b) the negative impact on relationships, and (c) the LGBTQ* community as a refuge. The women reported enduring unwanted heteronormative sexual attention, and heterosexist and homophobic harassment which forced some to conceal their sexuality. Support for the LGBTQ* community was central in developing confidence to call-out harassment. The findings call for the inclusion of LBQ-specific messages in sexual violence awareness and prevention interventions.
本研究通过半结构化访谈探索了女同性恋、双性恋和酷儿(LBQ)学生( = 9,年龄 19-24 岁)遭受性骚扰的经历。数据采用主题分析进行分析。出现了三个总体主题:(a)男性不受欢迎的性关注的悖论,(b)对人际关系的负面影响,以及(c)作为避难所的 LGBTQ* 社区。这些女性报告说,她们遭受了不受欢迎的异性恋规范的性关注,以及异性恋和恐同骚扰,这迫使一些人隐瞒自己的性取向。对 LGBTQ* 社区的支持对于培养自信以对抗骚扰至关重要。这些发现呼吁在性暴力意识和预防干预中纳入针对 LBQ 的具体信息。
