Violence against gay men occurs every day, yet little research has
been done from a qualitative perspective exploring the impact of
gay bashing and homophobia on the lives of gay men. This Master's
of Social Work thesis research examines the experiences of gay men
that have been victims of various levels of violence, directed at
them as a result of their sexual orientation/identity. Using a
qualitative approach, six men were interviewed and shared their
experiences. Data was analyzed using Grounded Theory. The main
objective of the research was to explore the experience of gay
bashing and gain a better understanding of the issues related to
this experience. This research adds to the knowledge base around
the experiences of sexual minority men and provides information for
social workers, medical practitioners, law enforcement agencies,
teachers and other service providers that will encounter gay men
that have experience homophobia. It provides information that can
be used to shape policy and practice to better assist gay men that
are victims of violence. It also provides a voice to the many men
whose stories are never heard and whose experiences are often
discounted.
