Of the 76 articl, 42% (n = 32) focsed on gay men or men who have sex wh men (MSM); among the, the majory (n = 18 articl) ed or clud the term “gay” or “gay men” (one ed “homosexual”), while the remar only ed the behavral termology, MSM.

As the latter may clu men who self-intify as heterosexual, bisexual, or gay, we heretofore refer to the broar tegory as gay men and other MSM. Thirty-two articl foced on transgenr women (12 of the addrsed both gay men and transgenr populatns). Of the remag grey lerature sourc, 7 focsed on gay men and other MSM, 5 on transgenr persons (2 on transgenr women, 1 on transmascule dividuals), 4 targeted the general populatn, and 1 ncentrated on lbian women, bisexual women, transgenr persons and tersex vast majory (97%; 38/39) of the grey lerature clud was published after 2010; the only exceptn was a 2007 report by Thailand’s Natnal Human Rights Commissn.

A World Bank [8] study (n = 2302) dited that 23% of transgenr people, 11% of lbian women, and 6% of gay men reported that they had experienced discrimatn accsg some form of tn or trag servic. In some fai, beg gay is viewed as a fect and there may be tense prsure to adopt heteronormative mannerisms and fd an ‘appropriate’ heterosexual partner; failure to nform risks loss of face for the fay, and the subsequent rejectn of the gay fay member [88] LGBT+ dividuals appear to manage this prsure wh actns rarely scribed Wtern ntexts.

Twelve studi reported higher rat of forced or erced sex than among the general populatn [7, 17, 33, 39, 43, 59, 70, 78, 82, 86, 96, 113], wh six-fold higher rat of forced sex reported among young gay and bisexual men and 1. A UNDP [7] study (n = 1349) reported that 16% of LGBT+ people had been sexually asslted, wh 21% [59], 20% [82], and 18% [43] reported other studi of gay men and transgenr dividuals. 1A large-sle World Bank [8] study (n = 2302) dited that job discrimatn was generally more severe for transgenr dividuals, 60% of whom reported discrimatn the workplace, pared to 29% of lbian women and 19% of gay men.

Ined, the World Bank [8] study, the prevalence of hidg one’s inty among different LGBT+ subgroups—41% of gay men, 25% of lbian women, 23% of transgenr dividuals—was versely associated wh the prevalence of experiencg workplace discrimatn. In part, this discrimatn may reflect the legacy of the difitn of “homosexualy” as a mental illns, listed by the Thai Mistry of Public Health 2002—a cisn characterized by a former director of the Department of Mental Health as one that “lags behd amic nsens by more than 30 years” [77, 81].
