Summary/Abstract: In societies, the concept of "biological sex" has been used to describe male and female genders. In this case, which points to a dual system, LGBT (lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender) individuals are considered as disadvantaged groups and are pushed out of norm, based on heteronormative norms. In the heteronormative society model, LGBT individuals are characterized by many prejudicial expressions such as "perverted", "pervert", "diseased". In this structure, LGBT individuals, labeled as "the other", can face life and rights violations, along with their isolation from the public space.
