The Haus of Nunsense

We are the Scottish chapter of the Order of Perpetual Indulgence - a non-religious international collective of queer drag nuns who exist to spread joy, banish guilt, and serve the community. The Haus seeks to meet the order’s mission through a variety of projects and engagements with the community around Scotland.

Some of the things The Haus of Nunsense does includes:

• Attending events, protests, and vigils (both in and out of drag)

• Blessing people and venues that support the queer community

• Engaging in discussions and advocating for queer liberation

• Leading special occasions such as wedding ceremonies

• Producing online content to help educate and entertain people

• Sharing information and challenging misinformation
