Abstract

This study investigates students’ attitudes towards cross-dressing and differentiates the attitudes according to the demographic characteristics of students. The respondents of this study are composed of 273 Senior High School Students of Llorente National High School S.Y. 2022-2023. The discrimination among the members of the LBTQIA+ community is getting worse as time passes. One of these issues is the cross-dressing of homosexual students inside the school campus. This led to discrimination among them which greatly affected their mental health and led to a bad academic performance. Previous studies failed to identify the attitudes of teenagers’ individuals and relied only on adults’ attitudes towards cross-dressing. This research was conducted and results show that the respondents’ response for each component in every variable ranged from 3.50 to 4.49 which leads to the conclusion that there is a significant difference in the attitude of the Senior High students onto cross-dressing in terms of their sex and religion, however, there is no significant difference on the attitude in terms of their Age. Therefore, the students’ attitudes toward cross-dressing in the community must be a top concern of school authorities to protect the rights of everyone and to stop bullying.
