Oftentimes, our relationship to the word ‘queer’ or ‘LGBTQ2S+’ is complicated and nuanced. We have our own preconceptions, along with everyone else in our lives. Labels can be an important part of self-discovery, but they can also feel constrictive or like incomplete generalizations of ourselves. Together, we can explore the grey-ness and muddiness of queer identity, as well as find ways to express the wholeness of your identity and self.

Regardless of whether you are questioning your identity for the first time or have been part of the LGBTQ2S+ community for years, you are growing and evolving each and every day. Your identity itself may be fluid, yes, but your relationship with your sexuality and how it impacts your life can also change over time.
