Gender neutral refers to the absence of a specific gender. It can be used to describe facilities (e.g. gender neutral bathrooms that individuals can use regardless of their gender), people (those who don’t subscribe to a specific gender), or pronouns (non-gender-specific pronouns like “they / them / theirs”).

• Gender neutral pronouns
• Ne / Nem / Nir pronouns
• They / Them / Their pronouns

We've created a massive LGBTQ+ Glossary (69+ words)

The world is increasingly accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, but it isn't always easy to understand the different sub-communities and nuances. In part due to the censorship in sex education and the mainstream media (hello from Singapore), many find themselves stumped by some of the terms relating to the LGBTQ+ community. 

Fret not, we're here to help! 🦄

We've created a massive glossary of 69+ LGBT-related terms, built on multiple sources and expanded upon with easy-to-understand examples so that you can get a grasp on all of these terms.
