LGBTQIA+

From Wikiwrimo
Jump to navigationJump to search

LGBTQIA+ is a forum for Wrimos in the LGBTQIA+ community to chat about anything LGBTQIA+. It was created as LGBT+ in September 2019 and gained its current name in June 2020. It lives within the Finding Your Crew forum and is an affinity group, so Wrimos who identify as LGBTQIA+ (including those who are questioning or unsure) must request to join. Nonmembers will not be able to view the forum.

When the LGBTQIA+ Fiction forum was created as LGBT+ Fiction in 2016, it also served as a social space for Wrimos in the LGBTQIA+ community. Before the creation of the genre lounge (and even after), almost every age group forum contained an LGBTQIA+ thread, which became popular and made discussion hard to follow.

The letters in the forum title are not meant to be complete, as terminology changes regularly. Wrimos who identify as queer, nonbinary, intersex, aromantic, asexual, or questioning (just to name a few) are also welcome. The forum is meant to be inclusive, not exclusive.

This forum is not meant for non-LGBTQIA+ Wrimos asking research questions for their story. Those questions should go in Reference Desk or Personal Experience as appropriate.
