Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the present, grade: 1,00, University of Barcelona, language: English, abstract: Although Western societies become more and more accepting towards the diversity of sexual preferences, a big part is still averse to and discriminatory against other sexual orientations than heterosexuality. One major cause for that is our current understanding of "sexual orientation". The purposes of my paper are to analyze why it promotes discrimination and to discuss how it could be changed, in order to reduce discrimination. Changing our understanding of "sexual orientation" from scratch seems promising, because it means creating a profound breeding ground for anti- discrimination protection and a more tolerant, inclusive and equality based kind of thinking.
