“…SGMs have also reported resilience to religiously based harms as well as benefits related to their RS identities, experiences, and communities (Skidmore, Lefevor, Larsen, et al, 2022). SGMs have used RS in a variety of ways to cope with minority stress, including undertaking scriptural exegesis (Etengoff & Rodriguez, 2017, 2020) seeking divine support through prayer (Etengoff, 2021; Etengoff & Rodriguez, 2020), engaging in spiritual development (Etengoff et al, 2022; Rodriguez et al, 2016), finding supportive congregations (Rodriguez, 2010; Rodriguez & Ouellette, 2000), and seeking out online support groups for SGMs who are RS (Etengoff & Rodriguez, 2016). Further, some SGMs report that RS may facilitate minority stress–related growth (i.e., coming-out growth; Rodriguez & Vaughan, 2013; Vaughan & Rodriguez, 2014).…”

Although many sexual and gender minorities (SGMs) consider themselves religious or spiritual, the impact of this religiousness or spirituality (RS) on their health is poorly understood. We introduce the religious/spiritual stress and resilience model (RSSR) to provide a robust framework for understanding the variegated ways that RS influences the health of SGMs. The RSSR bridges existing theorizing on minority stress, structural stigma, and RS-health pathways to articulate the circumstances under which SGMs likely experience RS as health promoting or health damaging. The RSSR makes five key propositions: (a) Minority stress and resilience processes influence health; (b) RS influences general resilience processes; (c) RS influences minority-specific stress and resilience processes; (d) these relationships are moderated by a number of variables uniquely relevant to RS among SGMs, such as congregational stances on same-sex sexual behavior and gender expression or an individual’s degree of SGM and RS identity integration; and (e) relationships between minority stress and resilience, RS, and health are bidirectional. In this manuscript, we describe the empirical basis for each of the five propositions focusing on research examining the relationship between RS and health among SGMs. We conclude by describing how the RSSR may inform future research on RS and health among SGMs.

“…Nevertheless, apart from theological and conceptual disputes, it is understandable that homosexual intercourse highly influences the growth of HIV/AIDS percentage. This lethal disease became an issue that no one can avoid, even the supporter of LGBTQ themselves (Etengoff et al, 2022;Liboro et al, 2021).…”

This paper aimed to acknowledge LGBTQ as a distinct discourse that emerged from the very foundation of Radical Feminism with specific reference to Nature and Nurture theory, HIV/AIDS, and Islamic theology. This study employed the discourse analysis method to accomplish this goal. It focused on its ideologically beneficial impact by examining power relations in an established narrative, how power relations shape a society or organisation's LGBTQ practices, and analysing its creative change and repetition of ideas and behaviours. Consequently, This research explored LGBTQ from a chronological history and dynamic perspective of Feminism, as well as how such changes reflect and drive societal development of gender equality from sole emancipation of human rights to a radical bodily expression. As an additional reason for addressing the growing difficulty posed by the LGBTQ movement, this research concluded by doing a more in-depth investigation of Islamic teachings concerning the shortcomings of LGBTQ activity with further suggestions regarding better strategies to deal with this challenge.
