TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the school-level risk factors associated with daily searches to estimate the disproportionality of their use in high-violence, majority-minority public schools.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the natural mentoring experiences of a national sample of lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health and found that sexual minority youth were less likely than heterosexual youth to have family members as mentors, but more likely to be mentored by school adults.

TL;DR: The authors discusses the African American lesbian gang Dykes Taking Over (DTO) as an example of a student-initiated strategy for dealing with homophobic bullying in an urban American school district, where a series of same-sex sexual harassment by gang members on heterosexual students illustrate how lesbian/bisexual threat was used by these women to re-establish a power differential after they experienced bullying based on their sexuality and gender expression.

TL;DR: The authors found that gender nonconforming students, and students who vary from their dominant school gender norms, are most likely to experience bullying regardless of school context, possibly due to a privileged position female masculinity holds in a single-sex female context.
