Gambling effects on LGBTQ+ People

[Frankolala]

Honestly, I can't blame people who are discriminatory towards these gender. Though they have already been widely accepted and respected, but sometimes they just asked too much of an acceptance, some of them looks like they want more than just acceptance, they want VIP treatment. Staff sometimes are confused how to address them. Some gays doesn't want to get called "sir" and some lesbians doesn't want to be called "maam". Maybe with these minor scenarios, some of them will overreact as if it's a disrespect and discriminatory remarks.
I dont but these LGBTQ+ stuff is too complicated like a woman's brain LOLOL!

It's a misinterpretation when an LGBTQ+ present himself he wants to be addressed the way he presents himself if he is a lesbian and he is dressed like a man and a man dressed like a woman, I address them the way they want to be addressed and they always make it obvious because they are proud of their preferred gender.

Reading some of the comments I haven't stumble a post where one of the members here admits he/she is part of LGBTQ+ so we can read his reaction on the subject.

I don't think that we have any of them here in the forum and if there is one then let them tell us their experience on this topic. Or are they ashamed of the kind of life that they have chosen for themselves. No I don't think so because if you see two lesbians outside,they might be doing what will create attention on them.

Gambling online will be better such people who are going against the will of God just to please or satisfy themselves. Looking it from this angle, how will you feel when a gay and his partner walk into a physical physical casino and the husband is gambling and his gay wife is acting like a woman,I will feel sick and might no longer concentrate on my bet anymore.

Personally, I have not encountered any LGBTQ+ gamblers in a casino but I think it is possible that there are many in casinos located in other countries. It seems that acceptance of LGBTQ+ gamblers or people in general is improving in many countries and their situation is generally getting better.

It's possible that those part of that community are just quiet when they're inside the gambling premises and they don't want to cause some ruckus or else, it will be blamed not to them but to their community.

They're bringing the name of their community thus, they could have just been quiet all the time and that's why you haven't encountered anyone.

Therefore, I believe the issue of discrimination is limited to a minority in certain locations.

Maybe and maybe not because we're not yet seeing the whole thing in many countries.

Online casinos will not care about gender, and people can play from the comfort of their own homes, but I don't understand the significance or aim of this study. For what, exactly? behavior? survey? discrimination? it happens in different places no matter what your gender is. This study appears to be pointless to me. Furthermore, people are fully informed of their community, and there is nothing to be concerned about, even at actual casinos.

It is annoying when people just because they are a member of the LGBTQ, should be treated as VIPs, they had already been accepted I do not know what else they wanted.

We might not find such a post since the forum does not give importance to gender but rather to the contribution a person can give to the forum and Bitcoin discussions.  Aside from that, the forum somehow gives importance to anonymity so reading replies like "I am a guy, or a girl, or a lesbian, or whatsoever" is somehow awkward because I think it is irrelevant in the Bitcoin discussion dedicated forum.

The more important concern for the LGBTQ+ people is that they are being treated differently in a casino which may come under harassment. Also, the study says that people at the casino, the staff plus the public have shown discriminatory behavior towards these people.

How does that person know they are LGBTQ+? Is it because of the documents sent to the online casino or is there a behavior that is different from LGBTQ+ so there is discrimination against these people including from staff and other users?

I understand that LGBTQ+ is contradictory in some countries, there is still this ban even though LGBTQ+ is very strong in some countries, but I won't comment too much because for me LGBTQ+ is a contradictory gender.

Well bringing their partners and celebrating their time off with them could be a giveaway. Gay people like to kiss as much as heteros. But i think it would depends where you are playing at. Some places are more progressive than others and there are always drunk people in casino who have lost a lot could be provoked easily by anything. And i totally get why someone would rather gamble online then in crowds.

Surely the bias of rich vs poor would be far greater then caring about someone's personal life and expressions.   I'd always rate the primary concern of a business as to how rich the player might be and so the potential profit from having them as a customer.  The business wont exist too long placing too much weight on guessing what a player does after the game finishes, seems pointless.  I'd also accept almost anywhere an establishment might discriminate for all kinds of reasons just because people do that and people are employed by a business; any bias is far more likely to be personally levelled then actual business practice by intention.

Well its really that sad that we do really have on the community today on which it cant really be avoided into those places and people around would really be having that kind of impression towards those
genders which arent really that been accepted in most communities even if it does, but there are people who cant really just bare out on seeing these fellas around and there's nothing we can do about it.
If you are that someone who do have that kind of gender then it would really be just that common sense that you would really be just not trying out to go into those places where there are lots of judgmental person who would really be teasing or would really get irritated if theres someone around.  Unless if you do just simply play and having no that showy kind of affection on these public
places  then it should be fine but if you are doing the opposite then better not to do it. Problem or issues would definitely might occur but of course it would be depending on the place though.

Recently research was held by Dr Reece Bush-Evans who told that online gambling could Hide the sexuality of the LGBTQ+ people and most of these people prefer online gambling as compared to physical gambling for obvious reasons.

I never thought that there is discrimination happening on LGBTQ+, our gender should not be the basis on how other people will treat us, we can gamble anytime and anyplace without thinking what would people will say to us just because of what we are and who we are but upon reading the research, I felt sad that this is commonly happening nowadays. in this case we should really be thankful for the online gambling that cope up this kind of discrimination.

Online casino will let you feel free without thinking what people may say, you can do whatever you want.

It is quite sad to see even people here, in the bitcointalk forum where you are already in the high tech world for people who are usually young and more developed and smart to be able to do crypto trading, end up showing so much hatred towards them, just look at this topic, and see some people who has shown so much hatred towards them and we can easily say online gambling is much better for them but also for us as well because I wouldn't want to be gambling near a person who is filled with this much hate neither, even if that hate wasn't towards me, it's still hate and I rather stay away from that if possible.

At the end of the day, they are just normal people just like any of us and I wish them the best of luck on their gambling.

But it really happened. Not only for LGBTQ+ but for other different things, the discrimination is visible and makes those in the minority unable to do much and are forced to step aside. This has been happening for a long time and they think that the minority does not suit them even though they are also humans who want to be respected by other humans. They also have hearts like us. But that's what happened from then until now. And not only in the gambling business, maybe we see it but also in other things where it's not just LGBTQ+. And if there are things they can do in secret, it may give them satisfaction, like playing online gambling.

actually from my perspective , LGBTQ community is gaining respect and acceptance from the community so why need to Hide their gambling activities ?  not sure if that research is truly active and worthy because I  have played several times with other gender in casinos yet they are not being threated that bad or harrased unless they will deliver act or posture that will lead them to experience such.

I have nothing to worry about in the slightest, they can determine where the gambling will be carried out even the casinos themselves don't care about things outside the rules they play. Their realm is in certain places but when it comes to casinos that involve a gender I know it's never been questioned. LGBT, a thing that doesn't deserve to be shown to the public, right? in some gambling countries it doesn't matter, the important thing is that they make a profit from the players, for example, in Thailand, I often see that this kind of thing is commonplace.

what the casino care about who are playing as long as they are not cheating or doing any harm in their casino houses? i have a Gay cousin that is addicted to casino , almost every night he plays but never that he mentioned to be abused or disrespected .
what I mean is that they can carry depending themselves , remember they  have also capacity what a regular human has , and sometimes they are more powerful than their own gender to be abused.

What a strange study. Hard to believe that casino act specifically towards LGBTQ people. Like their money is different from other persons money. You know how they say "money doesnt smell". I hope those employees who showed discriminatory behaviour are fired because they bring losses to the casino. Study seems to be fake, as people prefer online compared to offline gambling because it is more convenient, accessible and easier to use. There is nothing to do with LGBTQ. Or this is LGBTQ community just wants to get more attention to them.

Not intending to judge or anything, but isn't it a risk when someone goes against the norms in society to get that thing? like these LGBTQ+ people. They want to melt into society when they understand that most people today do not accept their presence. I'm not someone who is against LGBTQ+,but when they get treatment like that from society, they should understand that most people today don't accept their existence. And rather than protesting, maybe it would be better if they could move to a place that accepts them or maybe they could build their own LGBTQ+ friendly casino platform or circle.

I like how you start your reply but the end sounds too bad to the ear, what do you mean by they could build their own LGBTQ+ friendly casino platform? That's crazy on another level, firstly, which online casinos cares about any gender? I haven't seen any, or maybe you have a name? Even if anyone on this forum right now is LGBTQ+ how will anyone know? They are not aliens, they are people like you and I with some touched of twisted minds, accepted and they should know that the society will find it really hard to accept them, any online gambling platform don't care, they want the money and LGBTQ+ communities also have money, they have job and businesses and they can contribute to the growth of any online casino.

It is true, however, that LGBTQ+ people are at odds with society's restrictive laws. Because of which your people are the victims of the most unrest towards them. LGBTQ+ people see such behavior and understand that the society is impatient with their behavior towards them. An LGBTQ+ person can never participate in a good place in society, everyone shuns them. But it is true that the casino platform is a reliable and acceptable place for them to develop LGBTQ+ friendly relationships with others. But there are some LGBTQ+ people who behave well in society and they get respect among people and those people should be respected.

Since this is based on research, it means that it has enough data to back up its claim.

The acceptance towards the LGBTQ+ community depends on what type of country you belong to and where specifically. The culture and tradition of a place varies from one another. For instance, there are countries who are conservative and aren't liberated enough to embrace the LGBTQ community due to various reasons such as religion, traditions, and the likes. Living in a place like that, if you are a member of LGBTQ community, then most likely you'll prefer to gamble in the comforts of your home with convenience, and without the fear of being harassed or assaulted because of your gender. Whether we like to admit it or not, there are really places that still persecutes the non-binary. There are places and people that aren't open with the idea yet, so they don't tolerate such. And of course, for safety reasons, you have to keep a low profile.

It's the sad reality for the LGBTQ+. There are still unsafe places for them since not everyone is as welcoming and kind as others who are knowledgeable and open-minded. Good thing is that there are many online gambling sites nowadays, whether it is crypto gambling site or a normal currency gambling sites. There are a lot to choose from and they can play at ease without being judged inside their house.

It is quite sad to see even people here, in the bitcointalk forum where you are already in the high tech world for people who are usually young and more developed and smart to be able to do crypto trading, end up showing so much hatred towards them...

I would not say that it is specially surprising, since in this forum and in the gambling section we can find both people from open-minded and tolerant societies and also people who come from societies which are highly intolerant towards others who may have a different sexual preferences from them. It is a matter of fact that on the internet, does not matter how far you go, there will always be users who have a contrary point of view.

Besides, Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as a whole have been turning into technological tools which are not relegated to gambling and tech-savvy people only. People from older generations in developing countries have found Bitcoin to be useful to preserve their money, even if they do not share the values of personal freedom which are often associated with this ecosystem.

I guess that's just the curse of having an open channel to voice out your opinions and all that, but in my opinion just cause it's happening doesn't mean that it's normal. Not trying to be PC here but people on the spectrum are genuine human beings with feelings and sentience, sometimes more than us that are cisgender lol, so the least we could do is to reciprocate respect if given to us you know. I've had friends in the LGBTQ+ group tell me that they are mostly prejudiced in the crypto scene, with most of them made fun of in live events and all that all because of how they present themselves, same goes with casinos which is the main topic of this discussion anyway. This is just saddening to say the least and I would keep on saying it, that just because a lot of people do it doesn't mean it's normal and we should condone it.

Well, I mean if you have been on the internet long enough you could tell that people behaving that way has been quite common, I recall it was very mundane to see it back in the 2000's, today the respect for people who are different from one has increased and we are more aware about their existence.

You say that in the context of casinos, sport bettings and in general it should not be considered to be normal, I disagree though, before tackling a situation we must first admit and realize how serious or widespread it is and in my opinion this is the normality in many internet and irl communities, however it does not mean it is what it is supposed to be happening if we seek to reach more peace and acceptation. I also have had friends within the LGBT community, btw.

Yes, this is why you would really be expecting that responses would really be entirely be different to each other because each person does have their own perspective about in these genders on which

some would be welcoming and not really that an issue and some wont really be tolerating or doesnt really like at all and this is why its not shocking that they would really be giving out those words
which arent really that good to hear at but well we do have that freedom on telling our opinion since this is a forum after all on which it would really be just that right that you should really be that
have no limits on telling on what you do have in mind in regarding into this topic. On this judgmental kind of society then we do really have different kind of approach on certain conditions similar as this
but so far i havent heard off on a establishment who would really be that prohibiting for those people to get inside just because of its gender.
