Who Decides What “Gay” Looks Like?

Identity, Authenticity and Social Expectations

How do we get our ideas about how Gay, Lesbian, or Bisexual people are supposed to look, act, relate, and live? What happens when people don’t fit these ideas and expectations? We will explore stereotypes and how they shape our assumptions and expectations, and the pressures these can create for LGB people. And—what might they—and all of us—lose when they cannot be fully themselves?
