Cross-Culture Legitimization and Impartiality for Lgbt Individuals
Dushimirimana Mark
ABSTRACT:
The recognition of human rights for LGBT individuals is a fundamental problem that exceeds cultural restrictions and societal traditions. Although the Universal Declaration of Human Rights maintains the principles of equality, freedom from discrimination, and the right to life, liberty, and personal security, LGBT humans keep on facing the huge wrongdoings of their core human rights over the planet Earth. In many nations, intolerant laws and orders penalize same-sex relationships, exposing LGBT beings to harassment, bullying, torture, and even enforcement. These disobediences not only refuse their humanity but also have intensive outcomes on their health and welfare, containing segregation in housing and occupations, harassment, pressure, separation, and multiplied threats of mental health, intoxication, and HIV transmission. While some advancement has been made in recent years, with a limited number of states legalizing same-sex unions and granting lawful shielding for LGBT people, the plurality of nations still fails to maintain their core human rights. International human rights institutions have taken steps to address these infringements. However, their initiatives are often restricted by resistance from different aspects, including religious groups and certain governments. Winning cross-cultural legitimization and impartiality for LGBT individuals necessitates a flexible means. It requires complicating stereotypes, formalizing principles into regulations and laws, guaranteeing the transparency and outlets of LGBT problems, and acknowledging their fundamental humanity and privilege to all human rights, irrespective of cultural norms. Only through collaborative, universal efforts can guarantee that LGBT people are granted the dignity, respect, and equal rights they are worthy of.
