These differences have often been cast as deviant by the status quo, provoking hostility for being either too libertine or too repressive. These dynamics persist but have acquired new dimensions in the era of the modern state, with its dominant rationale of secular liberal governance. This article explores these themes by looking at one pertinent example in the West that illuminates these intersections of gender and sexuality amongst religious minorities – the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, orquestioning (LGBTQ) Muslims. This is because LGBTQ Muslims complicate existing official frameworks for defining and protecting minority interests and expose the complex ways in which minorities can be construed as ‘good’ or ‘bad’. The article illustrates this idea by analysing some of the responses from the media and from civil society to the 2019 protests by Muslim parents against the teaching of LGBTQ-inclusive relationship and sex education (RSE) in primary schools in Birmingham, England.
