最近,关于性少数群体中的少数群体压力的研究有所增加。这些研究中很少探讨地区或空间因素如何影响女同性恋者、男同性恋者和双性恋者(LGB)承受的少数民族压力。为了了解生活在农村和小城镇是否会给美国的LGB带来压力的社会环境,这项研究分析了地点与三个远端少数族裔压力结果之间的关系,以及与LGB社区的连接感。在一个自我认同的LGB样本(N = 285)中,这项研究发现,与城市环境相比,农村环境和小城镇往往为性少数群体提供了更恶劣的社会气候。居住在农村地区的LGB往往感到与LGB社区的联系较少,并感受到更高程度的耻辱和制定歧视。小城镇居民表现出一些类似的模式,但也报告了比预期更低的立法歧视水平。生活在南部各州使LGB受到更多歧视,与LGB社区的联系不那么令人满意。
Recently, there has been an increase in the number of studies on minority stress among sexual minorities. Few of these studies have explored the ways in which regional or spatial factors influenced the amount of minority stress that lesbians, gay men and bisexuals (LGBs) endure. To see if living in rural and small towns creates stressful social environments for LGBs in the United States, this study analysed the associations between location and three distal minority stress outcomes, as well as feelings of connectedness to the LGB community. In a sample of self-identified LGBs (N = 285), this study found that rural contexts and small towns often presented harsher social climates for sexual minorities compared with urban locales. LGBs who resided in rural areas tended to feel less connected to LGB communities and experienced higher levels of felt stigma and enacted discrimination. Small town inhabitants displayed some similar patterns, but also reported lower levels of enacted discrimination than expected. Living in Southern states subjected LGBs to more discrimination and less satisfactory connections to LGB communities.
