Show notes for Episode 61
Here are the show notes for Episode 61, in which Jacky and Dan talk to Dr Lucy Jones, Associate Professor in Sociolinguistics at the University of Nottingham about Words We Live By: A Guide to LGBTQ+ Language, including:
Why language labels are so important when discussing sexuality and sexual identity
Whether or not such labels categorise and divide more than they validate and unite
The expanding lexicon of LGBT terminology and initialisms
Why it’s important to start conversations around this language to learn more
Advice for navigating the changing, choppy and sometimes contentious waters of the language of sexual identity in the A-Level classroom
