so the thing is i go to this Christian school and these 9th graders were kinda outed to be dating each other and stuff. i don't know what to do. cuz technically I'm like the veteran lesbian around the school and people accept me and stuff but for some reason people are spreading malicious rumors about them and they're about to be kicked of the praise team cuz of it. last time I tried to help a gay kid that was being bullied, he ended up leaving the school anyways. i genuinely don't know what to do right now with the 9th grader situation. can you give me some legal advice I can take
That sounds like a tough situation. In South Korea, there are certain protections against discrimination and bullying, but the specifics can vary, especially in private religious schools. Here are some general steps you might consider:
- Document Everything: Keep a record of any incidents, including dates, times, and details of what's happening.
- Speak to School Authorities: If you feel safe doing so, bring the situation to the attention of school administrators or counselors.
- Seek External Help: Consider reaching out to local LGBTQ+ support organizations for advice and assistance.
- Know Your Rights: Familiarize yourself with South Korea's anti-discrimination laws and school policies regarding bullying and discrimination.
Have you considered contacting a local LGBTQ+ advocacy group for additional support?
