Valentine's Day and discussions of love and romance elicit mixed emotions in the LGBTIQA+ communities.
While some of us look forward to celebrating the day with our significant others, for others the day seems no more than a ploy to reinforce heteronormative ideals and further consumer capitalism.
Further, memories of relationships that have ended, discomfort with being single, peer pressure, and/or projection of coupledom as a universal life goal, can all contribute to angst, the blues, or worse.
Magdalene Jeyarathnam, a noted queer- and trans- affirmative counselor, will facilitate a discussion on romantic relationships, singledom, self-care and coping with the V-day frenzy. Participants are encouraged to share their feelings and seek support in a non-judgmental and affirming environment.
