Lesbian, Bisexual and Queer Womyn's Health Study
Sttudents at the Antioch University Los Angeles are doing a study on lesbian, bisexual
and queer women’s health concerns. They’d like to represent women across all ages,
ethnicities, cultures, socio-economic backgrounds, and geographic locations… and
need your participation!
Although there has been significant growth in the field of lesbian, bisexual, and queer
women’s health research, there is still a lot we don’t know. We know a lot about the
health concern differences between heterosexual women and lesbian, bisexual
women, but there has been little research into why. This information could help find
better treatments for sexual minority women. She would appreciate your help with this
survey to help me learn about the health concerns of womyn in our community.
Women who are at least 18 years old and live in the United States are eligible to
participate. Straight women and transgender people are not eligible, due to the
different health concerns.
Participation is strictly voluntary. The online survey is confidential. After completion of
the survey, participants will be eligible for a chance to win a Visa gift card for $200.
