This course deconstructs sex, gender, and sexuality binaries to understand LGBTQ2S+ diversity. Drawing from diverse empirical and theoretical literatures, we explore what it’s like to be LGBTQ2S+ in a heteronormative world. Topics include mental health, family, education, employment, data and methods, homelessness, crime and victimization, intersectionality, HIV/AIDS, and resiliency.

Prerequisite(s): Enrolment in fourth year of one of the Honours Specializations or Honours Double Majors in Sociology or Criminology.

Extra Information: 3 lecture hours.
