People who identify as sexual or gender minorities such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ) often face discrimination in society.This study interviewed seven participants from the LGBTIQ community in Kathmandu, Nepal's capital city.The goal was to understand public attitudes towards LGBTIQ individuals.The interviews were informal and in-depth ones.The results showed high levels of discriminatory behaviour in families and schools.Moreover, families and teachers often reject those who break gender norms and punish them.Supportive environments for LGBTIQ people depend greatly on if their families accept them.In addition, students with non-traditional gender identities face more exclusion if teachers discriminate against them.So, this research shows it is important for people to understand and accept the LGBTIQ individuals as the heterosexuality ones.
