Two thirds of lesbians postpone coming out as a result of negative sterotypes, including fears they will be percieved as“man-hating”, “over-sexualised” or “anti-trans”, according to new research.
A survey, carried out by Just Like Us, an LGBT+ rights charity, found three in ten polled said they decided to delay telling their friends and family they were gay due to fears being a lesbian is perceived to be “cringey or awkward”.
