Abstract

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning (LGBQ) persons come from diverse cultural groups with diverse racial and ethnic identities. However, research examining correlates of oppression among sexual minority persons has used primarily White samples and has failed to attend to and investigate the complexity of Asian American LGBQ persons’ experiences. This study examined the relations between multiple external and internalized oppressions and Asian American sexual minority persons’ psychological distress. Results indicated that when external and internalized racism and heterosexism/homophobia were examined concomitantly, only racist events and internalized heterosexism/internalized homophobia accounted for unique variance. Research and practice implications are discussed.
