LGBT - English

Alternative forms

Pronunciation

  • IPA: /ɛl d͡ʒiː biː tiː/

Adjective

LGBT

  1. Being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, or relating to these groups as a collective.

Usage notes

  • Additional letters are sometimes added, such as 'Q' for queer or questioning, 'I' for intersex, 'P' for pansexual, 'A' for asexual, etc.
  • The sequence of the letters is sometimes switched to GLBT.
  • When speaking only of sexuality, but not gender, the abbreviations LGB or GLB may be used.
  • Often the term queer is used as an alternative shorthand for all gender-non-conforming behavior, including homosexuality and bisexuality, but this may be controversial; see the notes there.
