Today we acknowledge International Le***an Day! 💜
This day is an opportunity to celebrate visibility, recognise lived experience, and raise awareness of le***an and same-sex attracted women in all their diversity.
We reflect on the history, contributions and ongoing resilience of le***an communities, and the many ways le***an identities are lived and expressed across culture, age, ability and identity. Visibility matters — creating greater safety, connection, belonging and affirmation. ✨
We also explicitly recognise the visibility and inclusion of trans experiences within le***an communities. 🏳️⚧️
Trans le***ans and gender diverse people have always been part of le***an communities. We acknowledge that inclusion has not always been consistent, and that trans people have experienced exclusion and harm within these spaces.
We affirm that trans identities and experiences are an important part of the diversity of le***an communities, and stand for the inclusion, dignity, safety and visibility of trans le***ans and gender diverse people. 🤝
Visibility is not only about being seen, it is about being valued, affirmed and able to show up fully and authentically.
Today, we celebrate le***an communities in all their diversity and continue working towards communities where everyone belongs.
