LGBTQ culture in France

LGBTQ culture in France encompasses three overlapping dimensions: the cultural practices specific to LGBTQ communities within France; the ways in which French LGBTI individuals articulate their identities—homosexual, bisexual, transgender, or intersex—through artistic and cultural expression; and the manner in which these identities and themes are represented, negotiated, or marginalized within mainstream cisgender and heterosexual French society, particularly in terms of visibility and social recognition.
