Queer couples refer to couples who identify as queer, which is an umbrella term for people who are not heterosexual or are not cisgender. Queer is a word that describes sexual and gender identities other than straight and cisgender. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people may all identify with the word queer. Queer is sometimes used to express that sexuality and gender can be complicated, change over time, and might not fit neatly into either/or identities, like male or female, gay or straight.

Queer relationships can be complex and unique, and they may not fit into traditional gender roles. The absence of fixed gender roles in queer relationships allows for a fluid power balance. Queer couples can adopt children, and same-sex couples can get married in many countries.

Its important to note that the word "queer" has a complicated history and has been used as a pejorative term against LGBT people. However, in recent years, many people have reclaimed the word as a way to identify themselves with pride. Its important to ask people what labels they prefer and not to call someone "queer" unless you know theyre cool with it.
