LGBTQ Identity and Relationship Development through the Life Cycle

Catalog description

In this course you will build on the ideas of developmental psychology to further explore how developmental tasks (e.g., LGBTQ identity development, coming out, dating, love, relationships, marriage, parenting, career, aging) unfold and are affected by the developmental stages throughout lifespan and in the context of societal and institutionalized heteronormativity and homo/bi/trans-phobia. Additionally, the intersection of moral and religious/spiritual development will be explored in relation to LGBTQ lifespan development.
