Ideal College Majors for LGBTQ+ Students?

I identify as LGBTQ+ and I'm wondering if there are certain college majors that are known to be more accepting or supportive. What are your thoughts or experiences related to this?

It's wonderful you're looking into college majors and considering their inclusivity and acceptance. It's important to remember that acceptance and support for LGBTQ+ students shouldn't be confined to certain majors, and most colleges today offer a range of student resources and centers that advocate for and actively support LGBTQ+ students.

However, if you're asking in terms of studying LGBTQ+ cultures, histories, and issues, many colleges do offer majors or minors in LGBTQ+, Gender, or Sexuality Studies. This could provide a supportive academic environment as you'll be surrounded by people who are studying and interested in the same issues.

There are also related fields that could provide a supportive environment, such as a major in Social Work, which often includes courses on working with diverse populations, including the LGBTQ+ community, or Psychology, which may offer courses on human sexuality and gender identity.

Ultimately, the most important thing is to choose a major that aligns with your career goals and personal interests. It's always a good idea to check out the overall school's stance and resources for LGBTQ+ students while making your choice. Remember, your major does not limit your community - you have the entire college and a plethora of clubs and organizations for support and camaraderie.
