Schmitt, Irina – Journal of LGBT Youth, 2023
The vulnerability of gender nonconforming young people is all too well documented. Arguably, "trans issues" in schools are not restricted to transphobic comments, and need to be analyzed intersectionally. Guided by Lugones' discussion of the politics of purity read together with the analysis of cisnormativity, this article draws on…

Forbes, TehQuin D. – Journal of LGBT Youth, 2022

The purpose of this metasynthesis is to present a structured review of the literature on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) language usage.

Potvin, Leigh – Journal of LGBT Youth, 2021
The role of allies in social movements is an area of social justice activism that is at times celebrated and at other times contested.

They undertake challenging and demanding social justice work, often…

McBride, Ruari-Santiago – Journal of LGBT Youth, 2021
In this article I review 83 empirical studies that provide insight into the secondary school experiences of trans youth.
