Respect the dignity of all research participants
Researchers should respect the terminology and language participants identify with and avoid imposing pre-existing categories
Researchers should be mindful of the presence of gender and sexually diverse individuals in their research sample
Researchers should engage in culturally sensitive practices, such as addressing the potential impact of binarised cisgender heteronormativity on the lived experiences of LGBTQIA+ people
Researchers should recognize intersectionality and its impact
Multiple epistemologies exist in which gender and sexually diverse ways of knowing may differ from the perspectives of cisgender heterosexual individuals
Researchers should avoid problematic or pathologizing language when studying the lived experiences of LGBTQIA+ research participants
