different public and private spheres.” 103 According to this survey of LGBTI persons, 62.7% had been victims of violence or discrimination, and of these 17.7% said that they had suffered sexual violence. 104 Only 4.4% of all those who had been attacked or discriminated against had reported the fact to the authorities, and, of these, 27.5% indicated that they had been treated badly and 24.4% said they had been treated very badly in the place where they had filed a complaint. 105 In addition, the survey conducted by the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics determined that “56.5% of LGBTI people are afraid to express their sexual orientation and/or gender identity, the main reason being the fear of discrimination and/or aggression (72%).” 106 According to information cited by the Office of the Peruvian Ombudsman, “45% of those [surveyed by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights in 2013] believe that LGBTI+ people should not teach in schools and 59% consider that they should not have the right to a civil marriage.” 107 Also, data from the 2001 World Values Survey shows that 64.4% of those surveyed considered that “homosexuality is never justified” and 49.2% indicated that the neighbor they would least like to have is a homosexual neighbor; 108 in 2012, these percentages decreased to 41.8% and 44%, respectively. 109 91.
