由于缺乏对性别问题的关注，对反同性恋暴力的研究一直受到限制。了解性别不一致对于解决反同性恋偏见和仇恨犯罪很重要。我们评估了396名黑人、拉丁裔和白人女同性恋者、男同性恋者和双性恋者在纽约市不同社区场所招募的与性别不一致相关的偏见经历。我们使用定量和定性的方法评估了与偏见相关的生活事件和日常歧视的流行率和背景。性别不一致引发了9%的受访者重大偏见事件和19%的歧视事件。女性比男性更有可能报告与性别不一致有关的歧视，但其他人口统计特征没有差异。在对事件叙事的分析中，我们发现性别不一致偏见往往与反同性恋偏见交织在一起。我们的结果表明，在处理针对女同性恋者、男同性恋者、双性恋者和变性人的偏见和仇恨犯罪时，这两个概念都应该包括在内。
Research into antigay violence has been limited by a lack of attention to issues of gender presentation. Understanding gender nonconformity is important for addressing antigay prejudice and hate crimes. We assessed experiences of gender-nonconformity-related prejudice among 396 Black, Latino, and White lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals recruited from diverse community venues in New York City. We assessed the prevalence and contexts of prejudice-related life events and everyday discrimination using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Gender nonconformity had precipitated major prejudice events for 9% of the respondents and discrimination instances for 19%. Women were more likely than men to report gender-nonconformity-related discrimination but there were no differences by other demographic characteristics. In analysis of events narratives, we show that gender nonconformity prejudice is often intertwined with antigay prejudice. Our results demonstrate that both constructs should be included when addressing prejudice and hate crimes targeting lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals and communities.
