The Trevor Project shared an insightful study today for Intersex Solidarity Day. TLDR? 💡 Over three-quarters (77%) of intersex LGBTQ+ young people reported that someone in their life attempted to change their LGBTQ+ identity. Those results are staggering to us and we hope to see a future in which young people are empowered to embrace and explore their identities for themselves. If you're looking to understand more about the "i" in LGBTQIA+, this report is a great place to start. And to our intersex community, we see you, value you, and stand with you 💛💜 https://lnkd.in/gyx4U9Nn

Move over cuffing season, it's "u-haul" fall! Last week, we launched our newest feature: the "move in" button. Inspired by our latest survey that found that sapphic couples move in nearly FOUR times FASTER than heterosexual couples, we created this feature where users can see their moving in style and see how compatible they are with their match. Learn more about the feature here 🚚 https://lnkd.in/dbbNqrrm

"Many of the mainstream hetero [dating apps] have options where you can select different sexualities and preferences, but those platforms will never be able to speak to what is so important about queer spaces, which is to focus on and celebrate the unique parts of sapphic culture and sapphic identity. And that’s what we get to do at HER, and that belief has been consistent all the way through." 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Our Founder and CEO Robyn Exton (she / her) recently chatted with NPR's Marketplace podcast to talk all things HER - check it out! https://lnkd.in/d89dzbdi

We conducted a study of over 2000 users on the difficulties and struggles that bisexual people face and released it last month for #BiAwarenessWeek 💙🩷💜 The TLDR? 40% of bisexual people admit feeling invisible in LGBTQIA+ spaces due to the bi-erasure they have faced. 34% of bisexual respondents revealed they’ve been labeled “greedy” or “confused” — a stereotype that simply refuses to die. 48% of bisexuals are tired of being asked “Who Do You Really Like More?” underscoring the frustrations of having their sexuality policed by others. Read the full report here https://lnkd.in/dwcERd9m
A staggering 40% of bisexuals don’t feel accepted by the LGBTQ+ community

Let's Go Lesbians!! Our CEO Robyn Exton (she / her) talked to Metro.co.uk this weekend about the importance of language within the queer community and how our vocabulary has evolved over the years. We've always been here for the lesbians and always will be 💖 #sapphicrenaissance
After years of misappropriation, it’s time to reclaim the word ‘lesbian’
