LGBT

LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender. Although LGBT covers only four possible identities, it is often used as an umbrella term for people who do not identify as cisgender or heterosexual (straight). Some other more inclusive forms of the acronym are LGBTQ (LGBT + Queer), LGBTQIA (LGBT + Queer, Intersex, and Asexual), and LGBT+. GLBT is also used.
