The first group will be the identified gay homosexuals from different social networking sites (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Planet Romeo, Manjam and Grindr). Their sexual orientation will be based on their sexual status posted on their profile and will be verified accordingly during the online interview. They will be randomly selected online purposively. The second group of respondents will be the participants coming from the LGBT Society of Legazpi City also known as the “maGAYon LGBT Society” who will be invited for a Focus Group Discussion. These respondents will be purposively selected by the researchers.



An online questionnaire-checklist will be structured as the main data-gathering tool. It will be prepared in such a way that it will adequately elicit the desired data to answer the sub-problems. Said instrument will be made only after making a thorough review of literature and materials related to the subject matter. Informal interviews will also be conducted with some personas considered authorities in the field. These will provide the researchers with substantial inputs in the preparation of the tool.
