    SOGI, So What?

    MABILISANG CHIKAHAN SA SEXUAL


    ORIENTATION AT GENDER IDENTITIES
    SOGI
    Review Lang:
    Sex and Gender

    Sex is a physiological condition, determined by


    biological make up. (Male, Female or Intersex)

    Gender- are social constructs, sets of roles and


    expectations of society of how individuals should act
    (upon birth, the society assigns this to us based on our
    genitalia)
    • SOGI - Sexual Orientations and
    Gender Identities
    • At the UN, use of SOGI can be
    traced to Yogyakarta Principles
    (Nov 2006)
    • In response to various forms of
    SOGI based violations.
    • The first UN document to expressly
    link HR to SOGI
    • Not enforceable but interpretive,
    towards development of
    standards.
    Sexual Orientation:

    Refers to each person’s capacity for profound


    emotional, affectional and sexual attraction
    to, and intimate and sexual relations with,
    individuals of a different gender or the same
    gender or more than one gender
    The expression of
    desire/attraction is your sexual
    orientation.
    Heterosexual—towards
    members of the opposite
    sex.
    Bisexual—towards
    members of both sexes.
    Homosexual—towards
    members of the same sex.

    Gender identity is defined by
    the individual
    Refers to each person’s deeply felt
    internal and individual experience of
    gender, which may or may not
    correspond with the sex assigned at
    birth, including the personal sense of
    the body (which may involve, if
    freely chosen, modification of bodily
    appearance or function by medical,
    surgical or other means) and other
    expressions of gender, including
    dress, speech and mannerisms.
    Beyond the masculine man
    and feminine woman
    Transgenders are those who
    were born of one sex but
    identifies with the gender of the
    opposite sex. Some go through a
    process of transitioning.
    LGBT
    What’s the fuss?
    In the end, these are just labels for conditions
    —physiological, psychological and
    sociological.
    In an ideal world,
    sex, sexual
    orientation and
    gender identity
    are incidental.
    But in a heavily prejudiced society, these
    conditions result in negative judgments and
    biases against those that are perceived to be
    different by the mainstream.
    The many ugly implications
    Stereotyping.
    Invisibility.
    Marginalization.
    Stigma.
    Inequality.
    Persecution.
    The “moral” of the story is
    We live in a world of diversity.
    SOGI should not be used for unequal treatment
    and discrimination.
    SOGI should be discussed
    Everyone should re-assess notions on and
    attitudes toward sex, gender and SOGI.
    SOGI, So What?
    • There are people outside of the masculine
    men and feminine women constructs and
    binary;
    • Equality requires that we consider all human
    beings in our programs and strategies;
    • Our programs and strategies should focus on
    vulnerable groups.

    Equality and empowerment are the
    objectives..
