LGBTQ+

This is Strath Union’s Campaign page for LGBTQ+ students at Strathclyde.

What is LGBTQ+ ?

LGBTQ+ stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Transsexual, Queer or Questioning, plus. The "plus" is inclusive of other groups, such as asexual, intersex, genderfluid, non-binary and many more.

It is not that we're new. It's that you've naturalized our disappearance and now we're in these public spaces that we weren't allowed to be in for decades. We're actually showing you what love looks like in public.

Alok Vaid-Menon (they/them) is a South Asian gender non-conforming and transfeminine person. Born in 1991 in Texas, US.
