Useful contacts

Most Muslim LBT women struggle to reconcile their sexual orientation or gender identity with their cultural or religious identities. This internal struggle can result in depression, self harm and even suicide. Coming out (or being found out) can result in:
-being rejected by family and friends
-intense pressure to get married, sometimes leading to forced marriage
-domestic violence
-homelessness
-losing custody of children and/or abduction of children

For Muslim LBT asylum seekers and immigrants these experiences are often made more difficult by legal obstacles and language barriers.
