New Homogender Concept and Challenges: Issues Relating to Gender Equality and Morality

Guilbert R. Mantala Nikko T. Ederio Mark N. Abadiano Randy E. Pederi

Subject area: Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities  ·  Area of research: Philosophy

Abstract

This study started with a literature-based analytic design. The discussion begins with the ideas of feminism and Marxism. Studies pertaining to its existence and presence were considered and also analyzed. Further, to concretely substantiate and attest to the veracity of the claims in the paper, actual field research had been exercised. The study in this manner utilized a descriptive design through purposive sampling since it respects the availability and inability of the respondents and the time and resources constraints by the proponent. A survey method was employed on 100 respondents with interviews to deepen and clarify the attestations and findings on selected homosexuals and non-homosexuals. The experiences of homosexuality were described revealing the truth of the claims. The analysis and the descriptive results serve as bases for sustaining the homogender theory. It was concluded that homosexuality is indeed integrated within human sexuality and gender, so as to what is naturally expected and required of. Also, homosexuality?s recognition is within human sexuality and gender; acceptance of male and female, man and woman reality would still be as it is, disregarding separation, discrimination & disintegration. Moreover, talking about gender equality applies not exclusively to men and women but also to homosexuality and homosexuals ? that every human individual has a place in society. Finally, homosexuality is within the crypt?s morality set for human individuals occupying the same sexuality and gender.
