How Do I Know I’m Queer‪?‬ Unicorn Youth

How are you feeling after the postal vote? Wasn’t that a full on day?! I cried a lot! Did you do anything nice to celebrate? I hope so! Where were you with the postal vote?

Questions for you! What do you think of the word queer? Do you love it? Do you hate it? Does it conjure up yuck memories of when people used the word against you? Or does it make you feel empowered and strong – knowing you’ve reclaimed this word for your own?

Maybe it has strong political ties for you. Or it is a nice umbrella term that fits all the ways you identity in one word.

Queer can mean different things to different people. For some people it is a great word to describe their gender and or sexuality. However, some people in the community can feel like they are just not queer enough.

In this podcast we explore exactly what it means to be queer and what the word means to different people.

We were joined by 2 sparkly young people who use this word to describe their identity. And why they choose to use this label.
