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.

Does the research tell, at least, an accurate source of that data about the harassment of the LGBTQ in a physical casino? I mean, how it can be determined? Only thru surveys? What kind of harassment that these people are experiencing inside a casino?

As far as my main understanding is concerned, maybe the research only focuses on a few locations but the result obviously can't be generalized.

Honestly, as involved in gambling for many years, I never encounter news or related things that members of LGBTQ are being harassed within the casino premises. I believed most casino gamblers only care to win and do not bother with that kind of stuff related to LGBTQ. We can even notice a great social activity between fellow gamblers and staff.

Most casinos staffs also cared for their profession and casinos are strict on the part of how to entertain guests and customers as these staff are carrying the name of the said casino. For sure there are bad or worst casino staff but not to the point that the case of harassment is only focused on LBGTQ.

But how are these people recognized by just Thier physical appearance? Isn't it more convincing when they know Thier lifestyle which would possibly take a long while?? - Assuming it's their first time in that casino house..
Secondly, casino owners don't even give a heck who's wagering thier funds - except the person involved is underage... All they need is enough profit at the end of the day...
Thirdly, the main interest when online casinos were developed was to ease the stress of moving up and down to either book games or claim winnings...

I believe these days, gender is not important anymore when it comes to going inside a land-based casino.
Time is changing and people are getting used to different lifestyles, different approach in life.
And yes, owners don't care about your gender preference, so long you are not making any trouble and spending your own money.
Maybe, if you go into a casino in a fairly remote area, where people knew each other, there will be talks behind your back.
But if you are going to a casino in the city, this kind of worry goes away. People are also changing their mindset when it comes to this aspect.

New Research Explores Effect of Gambling on LGBTQ+ People

The world will be a happy place if we stop creating problems to ourselves because I'm not sure perhaps it is the scientific exploration and research that has made some people to think out of the box, we basically have a male and a female by gender but some people feel we need more than that and that is where the genesis of this problems emanated from, why will a man would one day wake up and choose to become a woman, the world is becoming a crazy place, I thought humanity over religion is what we need, seems we need the religion to bring sanity to the world again.

I think there is law that allow business to reject LGBTQ from their circle, they shouldn't take it personal, my business my rule, they can call it whatever they choose to, but gambling regulations remain a uniform rule and there is no an exemptional rule for them, I don't think there is a policy for them or a rule that specify their use of campaign, they should choose to abide by the rules or live gambling until there is a rule of law that make give gambling a new policy for people to comply.

The study isn't yet complete we will have to wait until the end of this year to read the whole study, LGBTQ+ has a huge contribution in many fields and in many industries, society need not discriminate against them and should understand them, in many countries its hard to LGBTQ+ because there are no laws to protect them and if the LGBTQ+ is not openly admitting he is one he could be in depression and that is why he resorts to gambling.

This is one of the reasons why there should be a law in every country accepting LGBTQ+ for them to be liberated from depression and from becoming addicted to gambling.

The report is interesting hopefully we can follow it up so we'll know more about LGBTQ+ and addiction this is a concern of many countries because there's always a community of LGBTQ+ in every country.

Unless any one of these LGBTQ persons walks around with a placard or stamp making their sexuality a public show, I don't think it really does matter to casino staffs or owners who comes to gamble and their sexuality.
Gambling affects anyone in same way. The odds don't decide who to favor or not, unless the game is rigged somehow.

Also, there's a concern for these persona who have become so perverted that they can't control their urges in public and when they harass people with their portfolio of interest, it makes the management to enforce rules against such kinds or behavior and person, so as not to ruin the business or hurt its reputation.
Online gambling is preferred for a lot of reasons, but what makes it standout is anonymity.

Yes, that's correct. People who play online gambling can hide their identity easily because they don't need to show their face or body to other people. These people are just gambling from home, using the devices they like, and playing gambling comfortably while listening to music. Other gamblers will not know who is playing on the other side and vice versa. And it's true. This can prevent discrimination against anyone, including LGBTQ people. And online gambling seems to be preferred by many people because they don't need to go to a physical casino and can play gambling wherever they want.

Wasnt expecting for this considering that once you do play out gambling even on a physical place then people around you wont really be able to know if you dont show any signs about on your possible gender whether you are a lesbian or gay then there's no way for you to be noticed on.Unless if on how you do dress and behaved then for sure you would really be getting that kind of treatment on which its not really that shocking
that people are really that treating you up which it do seems that you do have done something.There's always that discrimination towards these type of people which it isnt shocking on this very judgmental world.

If they do find out that they wouldn't really be that getting be treated up on gambling casinos online then its their choice. Everyone could freely make out in between online of offline gambling approach according into your
interest or choice and there's nothing we can do if the community would really be having this kind of approach or treatment into someone who do have this kind of gender.

Can I agreed this idea because most of them might not be that free and have this support to come openly to gamble but somehow may be more comfortable and convenient with online gambling where no one harass them or even discriminate against them as I believe some gambling site are very open. Irrespective of any gender they are free to gamble online without being to go physical shops.

Harassment can happen to anyone whether they are normal sexes or LGBTQ+. The article stated that few instances where LGBTQ are harrassed when they engage in landbased casinos which also normally happen to normal sexes. I also think that the reason why LGBTQ prefer online gambling is because of the convenience and not because they are harassed on the casino. Aside from that gambling problem does not only happen to LGBTQ+ because of the stated reason on the article. Normal sexes are also affected the same way. So in my opinion, gambling affects LGBTQ+ the same way it affects the normal sexes. Same goes with its effect.

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.

it's kinda weird though. How can they know they are LGBTQ+ if newcomers don't say for themselves that they are LGBTQ+. I think for now all gambling houses will assume that all newcomers are those who really want to spend their saturated time gambling and there is no reason to discriminate against newcomers to their gambling houses.

And in my opinion, at this time maybe gamblers are more comfortable playing online gambling than going to gambling houses. But yes, it's all up to the researchers, of course they have found the case before they follow up on their research. On the other hand, if the staff do the same thing or discriminate against gambling players on the grounds of being LGBTQ+, then their gambling house may be empty of newcomers due to the unfriendly employees who work there.

I have nothing against that community and its people. But every sector of these specific groups and community looks like having their own sense of entitlement that they're discriminated against. How about those normal and no gender bias people that are also being discriminated against?
There's no gender preference in all forms of discrimination. Everyone can be a victim of it, a gambler or not, a member of LGBTQ+ or not as in everyone can be targeted by those establishments and individuals that do like to do so.

Gender is nothing in gambling, as long as you have the money to gamble you are welcome.
Though the society still have the issues with other gender but I think, you must ignore it and just focus on your gambling activities. If playing online makes you more confident to gamble then so be it, no one will judge you online and I agree about the discrimination if you are going to play on physical casinos, well that’s the reality.

I actually didn't think to research this, in fact I think most of the LGBTQ+ people prefer to gamble in online casinos because of the convenience and efficiency they get instead of having to go to a physical casino.
But it seems that people in the casino or the staff are unlikely to be abusive, as it is clearly against the rules and makes no sense at all.
Even so, we shouldn't easily believe in this research because LGBTQ+ are scattered in various countries so their reasons for choosing to play at online casinos have different reasons.

It's not bound to a particular gender group my friend. A lot of us here straight or in the spectrum sees online casinos as convenient alternatives to land casinos. I do think there's a reason why there's quite the propensity over LGBTQ+ people choosing online casinos over land-based ones, it's most likely within the constructs of gender discrimination and all that stuff which forces these people to seclude themselves and choose the option that wouldn't force them to face interactions with bigots and incels (which I might add is quite rampant in the industry sadly). But as things get more progressive and casinos see this group of gender as potential customers, we might see an increase in the number of people who's betting in land-based casinos that are within the spectrum.

Society as a whole is always different towards something they're not used to. Until they get used to it, people will be treated differently. Some of the LGBTQ community can be pretty flamboyant and outgoing. If people are not used to that behavior, they will treat someone differently.

People in general should be nicer to their fellow man whether they be LGBTQ or not. Casinos might think about some sensitivity training or something to make sure they are doing a better job of not offending people.

What a joke... What comes next? House edge is a homophobic feature by casinos? Gays can't lose on long term gambling, otherwise it's discrimination? Virtual casinos will start being sued if not including the one thousand gender options when creating the profile on the platform?
Sorry, but I can reply to bullshit only with more bullshit...
Casinos have to care for their customers in general, and not create sub-groups of customers, what will inevitably end in treating different customers in different ways. That doesn't look good.
Doesn't matter if you are a man, woman and doesn't matter your sexual orientation. Just act politely, soberly and following the local etiquette and you will be fine.

Your reply made me laugh honestly, and unfortunately that’s so true! There’s no place in the world and we didn’t hear or see this community of LGBTQ+ directly or indirectly are asking for special treatment. We saw football clubs, companies, countries supporting them and asking for their rights. With thousands of organizations and human rights….. while there’s nothing that support normal and regular people like us.
Now even in casinos and gambling industry ? We are not homophobies or anything, personally i don’t make any difference and I have no opinion about them. But this is too much

As a supporter of traditional sexual values, I fully support the crackdown on LGBTQ+ propaganda in public places. Each of us has the right to choose what we do behind closed doors, but people with a non-traditional sexual orientation should not promote their views among young people, who are also found in public places.

LGBTQ+XYZ-... and what else? For a thousand years all you could actually be is a man or a woman, heterosexual or homosexual - that's all there was. Suddenly in the last 10 years all kind of weird shit is popping out. People believing they have no sex, people believing to be fluid and one day being male but another day female, people who think they're both genders at once, old men believing they're young girls... A few decades back you were being hospitalized by having such thoughts, now it's suddenly your right, it makes you special...

Enough with the rant though. I don't think the preferences of sexual deviants and mentally ill people should be taken into consideration.

I will agree with OP. Country varies and it is very easy for people who are LGBTQ+ to go and gamble on offline casinos without discrimination in a country that it is legalized. In countries where they see LGBTQ+ as an abomination, that is where online casino is very important in their lives as gamblers because it brings privacy and convince for them. Down here in my country LGBTQ+ isn't legalize and these set of people finds it difficult to come out in public with their partners and people will raise up their eye browns. Online line casino is open for everybody irrespective the kind of person that you are. For,instance cripples will find it difficult to go to an offline casino but with their phones or laptop they can gamble directly on their bed or comfort zone.

I thought money is always money especially for casinos where they should not really care if you are white or black, gay or straight as long as it’s legal and legit money. I never thought that these category of people would get harassed in such places ever where things must be treated professionally and eliminate all kind of racism and homophobia.
It’s obvious if dealers in casinos treating people differently which can effect the gambler feelings and also effect the amount of risk, money and his way of playing that must be bad for both parts and owners of casinos should never let such things happen.
Online casinos and gambling is way more safe, comfortable fast and can be more enjoyable nowadays, in my opinion to these category of people they better stick to online casinos.

Online casino has benefit's to many people and the LGBTQ community are just examples of people they provide protection to, they also protect women that might love gambling but can't do that because of how the society will be looking at them like irresponsible mothers.

Online casino also protect religion worshipers that would had loved to have some fun gambling like every other person but due to their religion it'll be an abomination if they're seen at the casino. Muslim brothers are one of this people but everyone should have freedom.

LGBTQ members are already been discriminated and it isn't just about gambling as people find them odd. Their discrimination isn't about the act that they're gambling but how people see them therefore it's nice they won't have to experience that with online casinos.
