Manage episode 371252351 series 3412484
This week on Let’s Be Perfectly Queer Podcast, we explore the remarkable rise of LGBTQIA+ identification within Generation Z. As well as the cultural and social factors that have fostered a surge in self-acceptance and exploration of sexual orientations and gender identities. We also look at the role social media, increased visibility of LGBTQIA+ and shifting societal attitudes had on this generation.
Join us as we unravel the reasons behind Gen Z's extraordinary embrace of diverse sexual identities in this episode.
