Discrimination is the result of prejudice,bias and generalization. Biases and prejudices can come from personal or others' experiences or faulty foundations. However, those experiences are not usually true on a large scale; therefore, they leads to fail assumtions.

Discrimination not only violates the citizen or human rights of the victims, which can affects them both physically and mentally, but on a larger scale, it could lays negative influences on the society at a whole. Unfair medical treatment can directly and indirectly lead the LGBT patients to create a barrier between themselves and their rights. According to the research of CARE organization (2012), LGBT community takes up to 0.06 to 0.15 percentage of Vietnam population and 16.4% of them is positive with HIV; therefore, any action preventing the LGBT community to access to health care system can affect the whole society. Taking the insensitive health care as an example that leads to negative consequence, discrimination is a disaster which can not be neglect.

My response is to create a black-painted room covering with paper articles, pictures, news that can be seen daily on every media about LGBT. Inside the room there would be two human skeletons, both are stamped with their sexual orientation behind, one is straight (heterosexual) and one is homosexual. And a small set of TV which has the insight stories of the LGBT members from every aspect.
