The findings show how the terrorist attack had major negative consequences on all three dimensions measured, not only for those directly affected because they experienced the attack first hand, but also for those indirectly affected through their LGBTIQ+ identity.

Birgitte P. Haanshuus
@bphaanshuus.bsky.social

We argue that this illustrates a profound negative ‘community impact’ of terrorism, which poses a threat to diversity and to the protection and inclusion of minorities as core liberal democratic values, and should be taken seriously by society and investigated in future terrorism research.

Birgitte P. Haanshuus
@bphaanshuus.bsky.social

Based on an online survey of Norwegian LGBTIQ+/queer people (total N=906), including people who experienced the attack first hand (N = 127) and others who where not present (N = 777), the study focuses on emotional reactions, behavioral changes, and perceptions of Norwegian society after the attack.

@bphaanshuus.bsky.social

Den foreløpige upubliserte studien vi har gjort, basert på spørreundersøkelse blant 906 skeive i Norge, viser bl.a. at svært mange har følt på sinne og frykt, og at mange har unngått skeive arrangementer og møteplasser og skjult sin skeive identitet i etterkant av terrorangrepet.

Birgitte P. Haanshuus
@bphaanshuus.bsky.social

Funnene tyder også på at mange skeive opplever det norske samfunnet som mindre inkluderende enn før. Studien illustrerer hvorfor det er viktig at storsamfunnet viser støtte til skeive som en utsatt minoritet. Vi har alle et ansvar for at det skal føles trygt å være den man er og elske hvem man vil.
