LGBTQ+

remember : the LGBTQ+ community is for the one that are not cis/straight and therefore a lack of something (wether it is sexual, romantic, gender wise) IS different from being cis/straight

L: lesbian (female liking female)
G : gay (male liking make but used for people that are attracted to the same gender)
B : bisexual (people attracted to two genders (non binary included))
T : transgender (people who are not the gender that has been assigned to them at birth)
Q : queer (related to the LGBTQ+ community, not cis or/and straight)
Q : questioning (someone who know they're are not cis/straight but are not sure yet of who they are)
A : asexual (someone not experiencing sexual attraction/drive) also called ace (aromantic is the same but romantically)
P : pansexual (people that are attracted to someone regardless of their gender)

NB : non binary (people neither man/woman , outside of the binary spectrum), gender neutral, genderless/agender can be associated with it.
Can go by they, or other new pronouns

A : allies (they're people that are cis/straight and supporting of the entire LGBTQ+ community)

You can also be a "combination" like panromantic (romantically attracted regardless of the gender) etc.

Keep in mind that these labels have been created because it's easier to define people that way, you don't always have to put these labels on yourself if you don't feel like it, and nobody has anything to say about it since it's still a personal, intimate choice.

person 1 : Hey! have you heard about the LGBTQ+ ? I think I am a part of them !

person 2 : Great ! a new step on your journey to the understanding of your identity ! Let me know of any changes I should be keeping in mind ! (such as dead names or new pronouns)
