Notes

  1. While the authors throughout the book use varying versions of this acronym, I have used LGBTQIA so as to include all groups at all times while avoiding confusion over changing terms.

  2. This is especially the case given the vast amount of academic literature on this topic. See Heathcote and Otto (2014, 10), Otto (2010, 2014), Kapur (2013), Nesiah (2012) and Heathcote (2011).

  3. “LGBT Iraqis and Syrians” is in quotation marks to denote that these were the terms used during the debate (80).
