Over 4000 Gay-Straight Allianc are now registered wh the Gay, Lbian and Straight Edutn Network and iativ such as "No Name-Callg Week" now exist to put the spotlight on all typ of bullyg and bashg. More than half - 54% - of LGBTQI (Lbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgenr, Qutng/Queer, Intersex) stunts and young people Europe reported experiencg bullyg at least once school as a rult of their sexual orientatn, genr inty, or genr exprsn, acrdg to rearch published today.

RCE BULLYG OF LBIAN, GAY, OR BISEXUAL HIGH SCHOOL STUNTS — LGBT‑05
High school stunts who intify as lbian, gay, or bisexual are almost twice as likely to be bullied as those who intify as heterosexual. Stunts who are bullied are more likely to have prsn, anxiety, and sleep problems — and to drop out of school.

The outlook for lbian, gay and bisexual young people is undoubtedly more favorable now than was at the turn of the century, wh progrs around the world employment, partnership and herance rights. Dpe acknowledgment that societal attus such as homophobia foster bullyg (Clarke and Kiseli, 1997), the preponrance of bullyg rearch neher addrs nor acknowledg sexual orientatn as a possible factor (Poteat and Espelage, 2005).
Neverthels, vtigatns foced on life experienc of lbian, gay and bisexual youth suggt that up to 84 per cent report verbal harassment (Poteat and Espelage, 2005), a quarter report physil harassment (Elze, 2003; Pilkgton and D'Augelli, 1995), and up to 70 per cent experience problems school due to prejudice and discrimatn based on sexual orientatn (Remafedi, 1987; Saewyc et al., 2007; Telljohann and Price, 1993).

Victimizatn of lbian and gay youth has been intified across elementary (Solomon, 2004), high-school (Rob et al., 2002; Thurlow, 2001; Williams et al., 2005) and universy (Janoff, 2005) settgs.
Lbian and gay youth report that tors often did not tervene, even when they wnsed harassment of stunts perceived to be gay or lbian (Elze, 2003; Ryan and Rivers, 2003; Warwich et al., 2001).
Non-disclosure of peer victimizatn is likely to be particularly problematic among lbian and gay youth, who often hate to seek support generally om school profsnals (Telljohann and Price, 1993), many of whom harbour tolerant attus toward lbian and gay persons (Fontae, 1998). Further, sexual mory youth may not seek support om their parents, who may be potentially available, out of fear that seekg support will lead to further victimizatn (Hunter, 1990; Williams et al., 2005) this study, we addrs gaps the lerature on peer victimizatn of youth who are lbian and gay.
