discriminated against because of their gender identity. The person might get
mistreatment or maybe get fired from their job. In my opinion, it's not their fault that
they're part of the LGBT, and all they wanted was to accept them despite their gender
identity. They wanted to feel that they were an ally by their side who will protect them
when someone tries to be harsh on them.

6. What types of pressure might LGBT workers face in their jobs in the hospitality and
tourism industry?

pressure for them to confront it or not because it could affect their jobs and they might
be fired.
