2厂尝骋叠罢蚕滨础+听

An acronym for Two-Spirit (2S), lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual with the 鈥+鈥 representing the diversity of ways people choose to self-identify their gender identity and sexual orientation. The placement of Two-Spirit (2S) first is to recognize that Indigenous Peoples are the first peoples of this land, and their understanding of gender and sexuality precedes colonization.听

  • 2S (also Two-Spirit or Two-Spirited): term used within some Indigenous communities, encompassing sexual, gender, cultural, and/or spiritual identity. This umbrella term was created in the English language to reflect complex Indigenous understandings of gender and sexuality and the long history of sexual and gender diversity in Indigenous cultures. This term may refer to cross, multiple, and/or non-binary gender roles; non-heterosexual identities; and a range of cultural identities, roles, and practices embodied by Two-Spirit peoples.
  • L/ Lesbian: commonly used in reference to women whose sexual, romantic, physical, and/or spiritual attraction are to other women.
  • G/ Gay: commonly used in reference to men whose sexual, romantic, physical, and/or spiritual attraction are to other men; may also be used to indicate a person of any gender whose sexual, romantic, physical, and/or spiritual attraction are to others of the same gender.
  • B/ Bisexual: commonly used in reference to those who have sexual, romantic, physical, and/or spiritual attraction to more than one sex or gender.
  • T/ Transgender (also 鈥榯rans鈥): umbrella term used in reference to a wide range of people whose gender identity differs from their assigned sex at birth, a broad term relating to a person whose sense of personal identity and gender does not correspond with their assigned sex at birth.
  • Q/ Queer: used in reference to those who identify as anything not fitting cultural norms around gender identity, expression, 听and/ or sexuality.
  • I/ Intersex: a person who is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy and/or chromosome pattern that does not seem to fit typical definitions of male or female. Differences may be related to genitalia, secondary sex characteristics, chromosomal make-up, hormonal receptivity, and may or may not be visible at birth.
  • A/ Asexual: commonly used in reference to those who do not experience sexual desire for people of any gender. Some asexual people desire romantic relationships, while others do not. Asexuality can be considered a spectrum, with some asexual people experiencing desire for varying types of intimacy.
