    • 2010, Geoffrey Nelson, Isaac Prilleltensky, Community Psychology: In Pursuit of Liberation and Well-Being, →ISBN:
      This differential treatment in both the community of culture and mainstream white LGBT community may lead some LGBT people of colour to experience varying degrees of visibility and invisibility within these communities, and their identity as a LGBT person may change depending on the cultural context.
    • 2016 May 17, Cherie Chan, “Chinese gay couple marry despite court ruling”, in DW News‎[2], archived from the original on 18 May 2016, LGBT RIGHTS‎[3]:

Usage notes

  • Additional letters are sometimes added, such as 'Q' for queer or questioning, 'I' for intersex, 'P' for pansexual, 'A' for asexual, etc.
  • When speaking only of sexuality, but not gender, the abbreviations LGB or GLB may be used.[2]
  • 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.

    Trans communities
    Although the umbrella term LGBT makes pragmatic sense, there are compelling arguments to treat transgendered people as distinct from LGB communities: gender identity is clearly distinct from sexual identity (Dean et al., 2000) and to conflate the two risks ignoring the particular experiences of this ["trans"] group which is itself heterogeneous, comprising intersex individuals, androgynes, transvestites, and a whole range of others. Transgendered people […] can experience trans-phobia within LGB services and communities[.]
