South Asian HangOuts - Body Confidence

Topic: Body Confidence

Date: Tuesday 2nd September, 2025

Time: 6-8pm

Where: Zoom

Join us for an open and safe conversation about how we can develop our body confidence.

To talk about body confidence, we first have to talk about body image. Body confidence and body image, for many reasons, has always been a big issue within the LGBTQ+ community.

Body Image is how we see our appearance and our bodies. It’s also the beliefs we have about the way we look: both positive and negative, and dictates what we think when we look in the mirror.

About South Asian HangOuts

This online space is an opportunity to build community by coming together and connecting with one another in a safe and friendly non-judgmental space. We understand that the importance of meeting other people and we want to create a safe space together to get to know each other.

Our aim is to reduce isolation by creating a safe space to get to know each other through shared lived experiences, through topic discussions and activities.

• We meet the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month 6 - 8pm
• Please try to arrive 5 minutes early. The Zoom room closes at 6.10pm

By South Asian we mean countries including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Iran, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. We welcome gay, bi & trans men from all South Asian faith backgrounds as well as those who don’t identify with any faith. One of the main aims of the groups is to reduce isolation including social, cultural and geographical, by connecting with each other's lived experiences.
