Introduction: Previous studies showed that Filipino young women have higher rates of certain mental disorders than men, while LGBT+ individuals have higher mental disorders rates than heterosexual cisgender individuals. These differences may be due to their unique social experiences. Despite these, studies that directly compare the rates and social factors of mental health conditions among men, women, and LGBT+ individuals including depression, anxiety, and stress, remain sparse. Objective: This study aimed to compare the rates and social factors of depression, anxiety, and stress among young adult Filipino heterosexual cisgender men and women and LGBT+ individuals Methods: This study utilized a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Daily Discrimination Scale, and the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) to determine the difference between the rates and social factors of depression, anxiety, and stress among the respondents. A total of 959 young Filipino adults completed the questionnaire. Afterward, logistic regression, chi-square, and descriptive statistics were done. Results: LGBT+ respondents experienced the highest rates of significant depression (92.0%), anxiety (93.8%), and stress (81.3%). Discrimination had the largest effect size among men and LGBT+ individuals. While age may be a risk factor for anxiety among heterosexual cisgender males, it was protective for stress among LGBT+ individuals. Working, studying, and living with peers had protective effects against anxiety and stress among heterosexual cisgender men and women. Conclusion: Rates and factors of depression, anxiety, and stress varied according to gender. This variation may be accounted for by unique social experiences and contexts including violence, discrimination, cultural expectations, and social roles. Thus, gender-sensitive mental healthcare may need to extend beyond binary views limited to men and women.

Women have occupied a distinct social, economic, political, and religious position in Iraq since the time of its inception. For example, the Hammurabi Sharia has created several texts regulating the family and preserving its status and the role of Babylonian women in ancient Iraq. Women had the right to divorce from husbands, had the right to care for their children, had the right to engage in business, she has legal capacity and financial liability independent of their husbands, and she has the right to care and alimony. It also imposed harsh penalties on a person who mistreats a woman or violates one of her rights established in the aforementioned law. In modern times, women in Iraq have enjoyed relatively better protection than in other countries of the region during most of the last century. The beginning of the rapid deterioration of women's rights in Iraq after the 1991 Gulf War could be monitored, with the former regime using the traditional tribe as a political tool to mobilize loyalty to its weak authority. The United Nations sanctions imposed on Iraq following the 1991 Gulf War also contributed to the exacerbated problem. For example, the gap between males and females in school enrolment (and therefore women's illiteracy) has increased considerably with families under financial pressure that has made them choose to keep girls at home. Iraqi women have also suffered from a variety of violence against them and these practices are growing with the deterioration of humanitarian and security conditions in Iraqi society. Whatever type of violence against women, it constitutes an offense and cannot be derogated from as an offense that must be characterized to achieve its reduction and treatment. Every crime had its cornerstones, which are the material and moral cornerstone, and it has a perpetrator and the victim, all of this was available in violence against women. The aim of the research is to create a legislative environment that is friendly to women, respects their rights, identity, and humanity, prevents ...
