q-kid


a queer — that is gay, lesbian, bis-xual, transgendered or questioning — tween, teenager or young adult.

used as an abbreviation occasionally from the 1980s onwards. most probably started with social services agencies and others working/dealing with queer youth and their issues in community, counselling and school settings where matters of s-xual ident-ty might not be fixed or agreed upon with the subject, or there was concern about inadvertent outing of the subject (thus, used as a tacit code for additional confidentiality).

occasionally used by individuals to avoid outing (also spelled: outting) a teen or adult.

rarely used outside of notes and official communications.
marta is a cool q-kid, very self-confident and out there — itl.

joe is a 16 y.o. q-kid (not self-identifying), displaying behaviour patterns symptomatic of incipient a/d (alcohol/drug) addiction possibly related to ident-ty issues combined with peer pressure.
