Diversity
Research
shows that approximately 10% of all students will experience
feelings of same
sex attraction. How many students would that be in your
school? Is your school supportive and appreciative of its
sexual diversity?
'Same
Sex Attracted Youth' or SSAY is a term that acknowledges that
young people often aren't sure if they identify with words
like gay,
lesbian
and bisexual.
Grappling with sexuality can be a very difficult experience
for all young people, and many need support.
Getting
your school to question the way it supports and appreciates
its sexual diversity is the first step towards having a healthy
school environment. Think about the questions raised in this
section; check them over with your friends; email them to
your SRC members; or even your principal!
