Charity No. 1070904 A GUIDE TO YOUR RIGHTS FOR LESBIAN, GAY & BISEXUAL PEOPLE In association with Ending Homophobia, Empowering People www.lgf.org.uk A GUIDE TO YOUR RIGHTS... Over the last ten years there have been many changes in legislation that affect lesbian, gay and bisexual people. These range from an equal age of consent, to civil partnerships; and more recently, equality in the provision of goods and services. The Lesbian & Gay Foundation (LGF) have been working with O’Neill Patient solicitors, and Amicus the Union, to produce this information resource to enable lesbian, gay and bisexual people to have up-to-date information about their legal and civil rights. However, as the law has changed over the last decade it will continue to do so. The information contained in this resource is a summary of the law at the time of publication (May 2007). Both LGF and O’Neill Patient would recommend taking legal advice if you have a matter that needs dealing with urgently. 02 INSIDE Paul Martin, The Lesbian & Gay Foundation 4 Les Patient, O’Neill Patient Solicitors 5 Ten Years of Progress 6 Sexual Orientation Regulations 8 Disability 11 Age of Consent 13 Section 28 14 Comission for Equality & Human Rights 17 Hate Crimes 18 Sexual Offences Act 20 The Law & Cruising 23 Employment Act 24 Anti-Discrimination Law 26 Armed Forces 28 Faith Exemptions 29 Adoption 30 Cohabitation 32 Civil Partnership 33 Where There’s a Will … 34 Criminal Injuries 35 Immigration 36 LGB Rights Around the World 38 Education Rights 40 Housing-Younger LGB’s 42 Housing-Older LGB’s 43 LGF Housing Drop-In 44 Police Advice Surgery 45 Criminalisation of HIV 46 Useful Contacts 47 References 52 03 Ending Homophobia, Empowering People www.lgf.org.uk PAUL MARTIN Chief Executive The Lesbian & Gay Foundation “The Lesbian and Gay Foundation believes in a fair and equal society where all lesbian, gay and bisexual people can achieve their full potential.

    Written evidence from akt (COV0186) Introduction 1. akt is a national LGBTQ+ youth homelessness charity: providing safe homes, mentoring, advocacy and support to young people between the ages of 16-25 who are homeless or living in a hostile environment after coming out to their parents, caregivers and peers. We operate at a national level with support centres in London, Manchester, Newcastle and Bristol. 2. The demographic breakdown of our service users: Gender: 53% female, 36% male, 9% non-binary and 2% other Gender identity: 27% trans ( 52% in Newcastle), 7% questioning, 9% other, Ethnicity: 53% BAME ( 77% in London), 28% white/britsh,9 % white/other, 37% black, 24% mixed Sexual orientation: 28% lesbian, 27% gay, 25% bisexual, 8% pan, 7% queer, 3% heterosexual, 1.5% questioning and 13% other Age: 98% 16-25, 2% over 25 Disability: 67% ( 76% London), 33% no disability 3. Our submission to this call for evidence is centred upon the government’s legal obligation to protect individuals from torture and inhuman and degrading treatment and punishment1 . 4. We are concerned about whether current government funding for domestic abuse services will be enough to fully support our service users who are victims of domestic abuse or at risk of domestic abuse during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our concern is related to existing barriers our service users face when accessing support and safe housing. 5. Our submission will focus on ‘ What steps need to be taken to ensure that measures taken by the government to address the COVID-19 pandemic are human rights compliant? Domestic abuse experienced by LGBTQ+ youth who are homeless or are at risk of homelessness 6.

  • Bisexuality in Europe
    9 Plurisexualities and consensual non- monogamies Challenging normativities in Italy Nicole Braida Introduction Some studies suggest a relatively high percentage of consensual non- monogamous practices and/ or relational preferences among bisexual people (Klesse, 2007; Page, 2004; Robinson, 2013). My study of theories and practices of consensual non- monogamy1 in Italy confirms this. Indeed, among the 60 people I interviewed (who were not selected on the basis of sexual or romantic orientation), 27 defined themselves as plurisexual (24 as bisexual and/ or pansexual, and three as heteroflexible). This number rises to 32 if we include those who defined themselves as “questioning” or did not use any label. Bisexual identities have been marginalised for years within the LGBT movement in Italy. The main LGBT associations have contributed to this erasure, as has also happened in other countries (cf. Maliepaard, 2017). Only in recent years have local groups and associations emerged that are dedicated to bisexualities. Mondo Bisex: Coordinamento nazionale per la visibilità bisessuale (Bisex World: National Coordination for Bisexual Visibility) has been active since 2016, and was formed by activists from different local groups. In addition, the first Italian Bi+ Pride was held in Padua in 2017. Italian politics displays a conservative attitude, especially in relation to family values and family structures, both of which are represented and strengthened by the country’s familialist welfare regime (Gusmano, 2018). Furthermore, the legislation that regulates partnering in Italy is shaped by heteronormativity and compulsory monogamy. Under 2016’s Cirinnà Law, marriage remains accessible exclusively to couples consisting of a woman and a man, while same- sex couples have access only to civil unions, and no recognition is provided outside of couple relationships.

You made your bed. Now lie in it.' I. INTRODUCTION "Outing" is the forced exposure of a person's same-sex orientation. While techniques used to achieve this end vary,2 the most visible examples of outing are employed by gay activists in publications such as The Advocate or OutWeek,4 where ostensibly, names are published to advance a rights agenda. Outing is not, however, confined to fringe media. The mainstream press has joined the fray, immortalizing in print "the love[r] that dare[s] not speak its name."' The rules of outing have changed since its national emergence in the early 1990s. As recently as March of 1995, the media forced a relatively unknown person from the closet.6 The polemic engendered by outing * Associate Professor of Law, University of Oklahoma College of Law.
