Summary/Abstract: The paper examines various ways in which homosexuality is perceived by Bulgarian students at Sofi a University. The analysis is based on in-depth interviews with students from different faculties and disciplines. The main task of the research is to evaluate to what extent and how undergraduates accept or respectively reject sexual difference. The text offers a comparison between attitudes of students and those of internet-forums’ users towards homosexuality. We searched for the social reasons behind the pronouncement of acceptance or rejection of differences. The conclusions are laid within the context of the debate on the construction of social minorities.
