Abstract

The article investigates the role of family rejection of gender expression in the mental health of sexual and gender minority adolescents (SGMY). It highlights the significant impact of family responses to gender expression on psychological distress, extending the existing minority stress theory. The study focuses on the unique stressors faced by SGMY due to their gender expression and how these experiences are often overlooked in broader research. The research aims to provide a deeper understanding of the complex interplay between family rejection, gender expression, and mental health outcomes, offering valuable insights for professionals working with SGMY.
