"Gender Ideology"
“Gender ideology” (also known as “LGBTQ+ ideology”) is a conspiratorial phrase coined by anti-LGBTQ+ activists and extremists to characterize attempts to achieve LGBTQ+ rights or representation as an extreme ideology or even part of a nefarious left-wing plot to dominate public institutions. Proponents of the phrase often use it to oppose school curricula that feature and/or celebrate LGBTQ+ history or experiences, falsely claiming that such materials promote the sexualization of minors and/or coerce children into identifying as members of the LGBTQ+ community. Anti-LGBTQ+ activists also use the term in legal and political contexts to defend or rationalize their opposition to LGBTQ+ rights.
