LGBTQIA+ terminology explained
Manage episode 310502909 series 2995172
Sarah Roberts is back to educate us on the acronym LGBTQIA+ and how it relates to gender and sexual expression.
The Strength of Us Podcast is an advocate for diversity and inclusion and to do this, we need to make sure that we understand the correct terminology to use when discussing the rainbow community.
Lesbian
Gay
Bisexual
Trans
Queer
Intersex
Allies/Asexual
These are not as straight forward as they may seem and we need to remember that it is also up to the individual how they want to be identified.
