Excellent- More about Queer Crimes & Criminal Justice
LGBT individuals have a unique experience of their sexual desires, which they have transformed into a social identity and sexual orientation. Discrimination and abuse from homophobic/transphobic worlds make it difficult for them to maintain a strong sense of well-being and self-esteem. This study recommends education and awareness programs to ensure safe and proper places for LGBT people in society, and inculcating a humane approach into laws and the criminal justice system.

The LGBTQ+ community, which encompasses individuals such as lesbians, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT), has been a prevalent presence in today's society. Within this community, individuals share a unique experience of their sexual desires, which may be directed towards individuals of the same gender. These experiences, desires, and practices have been transformed into a social identity and sexual orientation, serving as a marker of individual self-identification and collective belonging.
A significant finding of this study is that discrimination and abuse from homophobic and transphobic environments, where there is a societal tolerance for treating LGBT individuals with cruelty, pose significant challenges to their well-being and self-esteem. The study reveals that LGBT individuals in India often lead secretive lives, hesitant to openly disclose their sexual orientation due to the fear of discrimination and marginalization.
In light of these findings, this book offers robust and practical recommendations aimed at ensuring safe and inclusive spaces for the LGBTQ+ community in society. It emphasizes the need for incorporating a humane approach into laws and the criminal justice system to protect and promote the rights of these individuals. Education and awareness programs through various channels, including schools, community centers, and social media, can play a pivotal role in fostering positive changes and promoting understanding and acceptance.
It is important to note that the Hardback edition of this book is not sold or distributed in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka.
